    What has made you Happy today??

    Unfortunately fried a Milwaukee $200 18v battery charger.
    Happy side of life, was a sacrificial tell tale I believe thankfully before cooking the new flash Hilti gear invested in for speed vacuuming holes one step.
    30 years out of a Honda 8kva faithful aint too bad, upgrade to new age smarts time me stupidly thinks

    EDIT: Yes old faithful was TT and cleaned Genie side to meet last quarter!

    Hey that's a bloody good effort, looks great. We use wheelbarrows. 1 for big wood, 1 for mid range wood and 1 for kindling.

    Thanks.
    I've been thinking about adding like a narrow side section onto it so I can put kindling in it. I have more than enough pallets at work to add onto it.

    If your fuel is already good, or you are constantly refilling from a reputable servo, then using Fuel Doctor or the like is more than likely going to be fruitless. I use it in my tanks as my Patrol is not a daily and see's maybe 10k's a week. So the tank gets a smidge of fuel treatment just to disperse any moisture and void off those nasty parasites that love to live in Diesel thats sitting around for a while.

    If you have crap fuel and use this stuff, keep a fuel filters spare...
    There has always been a bottle of this in my patrol for a long time now. I also use it in other things like our Subaru, Victa mower and other 2 stroke stuff I have at home.

    A little while ago we had a fleet of 15 Diesel Hiaces at work (d4d motors). These got driven daily, 7 days a week, on the road all the time. They never got looked after, most of guys at work didn't give 2 f***s about them. Use to get trashed and bashed, missed services by sometimes 20-25k, some got filled up with petrol multiple times. So they had to get cleaned out etc.

    At one point I had one of them for a month and it used to run like puss ! Idled shit, not a lot of power etc. After I got the van a topic of injector cleaners etc came up with our diesel mechanic at work and we talked about this fuel doctor. He didn't believe in it. I got some anyway and began running it through every fill. First full tank was a full bottle of the doctor, shock treated it. If it hurt the motor well, it can't get any worse than it already ran.
    After about 2 weeks and possibly around 2000k travelled, the motor was purring 50x better! I don't think it's the way you drive. This definitely de-congested the fuel system.
