Help with fuel odor
« on: June 03, 2008, 06:34:20 PM »
Anyone got a quick fix to get the smell of gas off my hands. Replaced needle & seat and made a big mess lol  :banghead:. Now washed hands twice with no luck. I usually wear gloves but wasn't thinking lol. I know what a wussy wearing gloves. But got in the habit from when I was a full time mechanic and soap was drying out my hands to the point of bleeding.

That reminds me of a quick story.  My older brother and a buddy were refilling a zippo lighter with fluid and he ended up with fluid on his Levi's, well being teenagers they started flicking matches at each other until my brother caught fire  :screwy:

Oops, that left a mark  :o

Got a better (or worse) one, 15 years old, camping at Shasta, had a charcoal lighter fluid can mostly empty, decided to see what would happen if we threw it in the campfire (did I say we were 15), this sucker wasn't in there two seconds and poof it blew the fire out of the ring and all around us (we were right next to the water thank God) weren't any adults around at the time and we didn't say squat, the next morning we noticed all the tents had dozens of holes in them, funny, no one ever figured that one out :sly:

Sorry Mom!

Got the idea from my dad actually, he tells this story about putting an unopened can of VanKamps pork and beens in the campfire, everytime he tells that story he damn near pisses himself when he gets to the part of everyone picking beans off themselves ;D :screwy:

Stupid people should not breed..........They call it FIRE cause it burns.....Bullets in a campfire created the worst beating I've ever seen anyone take, and LIVE.........MP

PS: speaking of burns..........


New Treatment For Sunburn -

 A guy fell asleep on the beach for several hours and got horrible
sunburn,
 specifically to his upper legs.
He went to the hospital, and was promptly
admitted after being diagnosed with second-degree burns.
 With his skin already starting to blister, and the severe pain he was
 in, the doctor prescribed continuous intravenous feeding
 with saline, electrolytes, a sedative, and a Viagra pill every four
 hours.
 
 The nurse, who was rather astounded, asked,
 "What good will Viagra do for him, Doctor"?

 The doctor replied,
It won't do anything for his condition, but it'll keep the sheets
 off his legs."

Sorry to thread jack but inspired by the other post I will share one of my fondest memories:

So at about 18 a bunch of us decided to go camping/fishing. Now I love to camp but I hate fishing, so damn boring.  So before going I decided to invent a new way of fishing(now back then the internet wasnt what it is today). So I took what I had and bought the rest:

1. Used Co2 cartridges
2. Silicone Caulking
3. Gun Powder (Did you know you could buy it at 18)
4. Waterproof fuses (Also available to purchase at 18)

So you drill out the top of the Co2 Cartridge, drop in a lil powder , cut a fuse to length, silicone the top and repeat, many many times.

Go camping, find a nice water hole, drop a lit one in and just stand there and watch! WOW, that shi$ is cool....Woolah, dead fish!

Why we all still have are hearing, eyesight, fingers...I will never know!

not really blowing stuff up, in water in becomes an implossion. No flames, just a pop and a splash of water! actually pretty funny, We were probably using the same amount of gun powder that is in a 12guage shell. Still funny as hell!



I wonder if I have any Co2 cartridges lying around? >:D

Lemons didn't work. But woke up this morning and it's pretty much gone. I will try mustard and vinegar if it happens again. I think I'll go back to wearing gloves.

And remind me not to go camping with you pyros lol. Not because I'd be scared but because I'd probably be the one standing next to you saying no, no, more black powder!!!  :screwy: :screwy:
