Garage
I have to go back to when I was 17 & bought my 1st car just for the engine. Gas prices had recently shot up from $0.40 per gal to $0.59. My parts car was 1/2 full of gas so I began siphoning the gas into gas cans. Soon discovered I didn't like the taste of gasoline (maybe because of the lead). So I had the bright idea that I could use my mom's vacum cleaner to start the siphon, never thinking about the fumes getting into the vacum. Soon the vacum died with a small explosion! :dance: :chicken:
