Diesel: Tastes better than gas! Try tasting model engine fuel, YUCK! I had this one engine...
Castor oil and methanol? Yuck is right. Maybe your fuel was worse than that. It smells terrible when burned, I can't imagine it's any better 'raw'. Of the common liquid (not liquified) fuels, I prefer diesel's smell, raw or not. I checked my low-fuel bulb, and it's good. I went back to the trunk and pulled the connector to the sender, and shorting out the correct two pins lit the lamp. So, either the sender's bad, or I had a bad connection at the bulb that was rectified by the laying on of hands. We'll see. I tightened the trunk latch, which was starting to come unscrewed, and greased it. It was starting to get sticky, it seems better now. -- Jim
