Dust-Off is actually 1,1 difluoroethane, also known as R-152a (a refrigerant). Inside the can it is (mostly) a liquid under pressure. When you pull the trigger, normally you get vaporized R-152a out

Somehow, I don't believe they are going to violate state law, just in case I might buy some gas from them. For that matter, I could buy non-oxygenated gasoline practically next door, at the airport.

Let me guess, you live where the relative humidity is high. There are two things that cause the carbs and intake manifold to get cold under cruise conditions. One is the liquid fuel evaporating (hea

So, in addition to the short, you've got the ammeter wired backwards. That's called "in parallel", since each fixture is connected between the red wire and ground. But yes, the red wire goes to thre

So the front marker lights do flash with the headlights off, but only stay on solid with the headlights on? In that case, I think you have the front turn signals wired wrong, with the running lights

Actually, pure phosphoric acid isn't even a liquid. But we weren't talking about "laboratory grade acid" (whatever that means, most labs use mostly dilute acids anyway). The solutions commonly sold
