    My CUCV spin on fuel filter mod

    I forgot to mention, I HATE the new "post-ban" fuel cans, it made filling up the filter an almost three handed operation! (I KNOW it is not yellow, I could not find a 1 gal Diesel can, had to do it wrong and use a gasoline can)

    My CUCV spin on fuel filter mod

    M109s are for machine shop type jobs and come equipped with a lathe, press, drill press and a small mill (I think) M185s are for "instrument repair" and typically have small parts bins, work benches and sometimes a tone generator (for testing radio receivers) and other electronics repair stuff...

    Have you been to San Antonio? It is one GIANT traffic issue, SA is the most frustrating city in Texas to navigate. Major streets that intersect major interstate highways with NO way to access the highway, major streets that dead end in neighborhoods, little or no signage and constant...
