Just thaw the chunks out with a blow torch.

That's a joke.



I once did have to thaw a pickup truck's fuel line with a propane torch
to get some ice out of the line.


Veeeerrrrryyyyy carefully.



Sounds like the oldie..."Dude, got a light? I think I smell gas."
Couldn't resist.



Or this song....

To the tune of "My Bonnie lies over the ocean".



My Bonnie looked into the gas tank,
The depth of its contents to see.
I lighted a match to assist her,
Oh, bring back my Bonnie to me...

I signed up for a welding class at a local community college. Didn't
have much respect for the teacher and lost what little I did the day he
rolled an empty gas barrel out in the yard and got ready to cut the top
off with a torch. I decided it was a good time to take a smoke break.
Nothing happened but...another of his brilliant things. Guy contracted
with him to turn an old hangard door into a 4wheel trailer deck. His
plan looked okay until he had us weld both spring shackles solid to the
frame.
