Jumpins, holy cats and all that stuff.!!
Fuel up again today. Gasoline up 5 cents, now $1.85 per litre. Diesel up 16 cents, now $2.50 per litre. Furnace oil up 16 cents, now $2.04 per litre.
Guess I’ll be staying home more again.
Noel
That works out to about $5.46 USD per gallon
Gas here was back up to $3.99 per gallon last week. No idea what gas costs this week. I've got another week before I need to fill up. $50 will get me about 550 miles.

So I should try the seafoam with the high test fuel. Might get 20 mpg.
Next tank, if I can remember to get a can of seafoam, I’ll try it.
Noel.
Ok, filled up today. Put the seafoam in, then filled with high test, $1,93 per litre, Ouch !
So will see if any difference next fill up.
This past tank was 15.92 mpg. Down from last months of 17 mpg. But I have a front caliber sticking on. So that would change the mileage. Don’t know really how long it’s been doing that. Noticed a smell last Saturday and wheel a bit hot.
Had it out yesterday. Wheel cold when I got home. Today just warm. Son has caliber on order
Hope to put it in this Saturday. I’ll adjust rear brakes and grease every thing to. Son has hoist.

Holy cats Dave. Gunna be expensive for me. Got some gardens to till up in the next two weeks or so, and all 1/2 drive away from home. Mostly family members. So you know what that means, money out of my pocket, and none coming in. Have one fella to do maybe, not a family member. He always pays me, but I keep telling him I don’t want any thing.
I just can’t see how it’s all gunna pan out, with all the things I do thru the summer months. Jumpins stayed home most of the winter. Only filled the truck 6 times in the last 6 months. Now it will be 2 to 3 times a month plus the gas cans for yard work.
Another ramble.

Fortunately some of that gas gets paid for by clients . Fresh gas in equipment when needed . Pick up and delivery charge helps keep the truck paid for .
Seldom venture far from home these days still . If I work my orders right , I get free delivery . I just wish I could keep up with things , work coming in and around here .
