ok so i just found out we're under a state of emergency. They're expecting it to start falling an inch an hour soon and they ARE expecting 13 inches here.

My girlfriend is an ESSENTIAL state employee... so as long as she's in the car they can't stop me from driving [hihi]

LOL a state of emergency for about a foot? I'm still waiting for the 3 feet that has yet to come.

it's pennsylvania [dunno]

I just had a tech chat moderator tell me that it's impossible to flood a fuel injected vehicle because the fuel pump won't pump unless their is air coming through the intake....

what is this forum coming to.

I would almost say that that moderator does not not what he is talking about.
That is my opinion anyway, because you CAN flood a fuel injected engine.

I don't know all the mechanics of a diesel engine, but I do know how they work and what problems they encounter when cold weather comes around.

LOL yeah i replied to that one too. diesels are pretty easy to learn. I used to have an old diesel f150 work truck. and my cousin had an 80s diesel jetta.

I'm not home although where I am at there has to be about the same amount. Aaron is gonna look through his army gear & get some warm clothes out so we can go sledding cause with the windchill it's like 10 degrees here. LOL.

The thing is we're in a state of emergency but there's less than 1/8 inch on the ground. They keep saying its coming but according to the radar were in the middle of it and should have about 9 inches by now [dunno] whatever. I hate the snow too. I just wish it would snow more so i can play... maybe i'll get some video for ROTM lol
