   It recently dawned on me that I was still using gasoline to wash greasy
parts and clean tar off stuff, etc....cause it always was the cheapest
solvent....But that is not really the case now...
   So I went to the hardware store and got some turps or mineral
spirits...a couple a bucks a gallon cheaper than gasoline....Hmmmm, wonder
if my inline four would run on turpentine?   Or maybe cheap Tequila....

We did once get a VW bug to run in Baja on Pulque...don't ask...
