Storing fuel
I'm planning on storing 6000 gallons of fuel. I would like to bury the
tank. It's unknown how long the fuel will sit, without being used. Should fuel stabilizer be used? Should I vent the tank so no condensation will form? TIA! |

Per Tom J:
I'm planning on storing 6000 gallons of fuel. I would like to bury the tank. It's unknown how long the fuel will sit, without being used. Should fuel stabilizer be used? Shou This is a joke, right? -- Pete Cresswell |

A successful troll is one that gets people all riled up and arguing, etc. Discussing the fact that it's a troll and making jokes about the content doesn't make it a successful troll. Stolen without permission from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troll_(Internet) "In Internet slang, a troll (/ˈtroʊl/, /ˈtrɒl/) is a person who sows discord on the Internet by starting arguments or upsetting people,[1] by posting inflammatory,[2] extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community (such as a forum, chat room, or blog), either accidentally[3][4] or with the deliberate intent of provoking readers into an emotional response[5] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion." This post either a legit post by a clueless individual or an attempt at a troll which no one has bit on. My suspicion that it's an attempt at a troll is the lack of any details about the type of fuel, the type of tank, etc. My hope is that no one takes him seriously and gets taken down to level that makes it a successful troll. Oh wait... Are we arguing about whether it's a successful troll or not? Does that make it a successful troll? ;-) |
