What is a Texas Box? Did you have to smuggle it across the border?

I got similar life out of my original battery too. When I replaced it last year I could still start the tractor if I was using it daily. However, the battery did not have enough power to start the tractor if it sat for more than a day. The voltage was there but the amperage was not. The lights...

With a 2.5" fill opening you do not need a vent. I have the vevor version of that tank and believe me, the filler neck is plenty big enough to not need a vent.

You state that the battery is a 2013. That battery has lived its full life. I don't care what a load test at a parts store shows. I am certain that you will find that the battery is done.

How did you load test the battery? It really sounds like the battery is bad. How old is the battery? Did you try jump starting it? If it starts by jump starting it, the battery is the problem.

I agree with you but in my backward state the law says that everyone speeding is wrong and they will not stop the one going slower unless he is impeding 5 or more vehicles. My state is truly messed up. No one in authority has any common sense. In this state, if they do a traffic survey and find...

Please define slow. It one is doing the speed limit in the left lane, that is not how I define slow. I define slow as doing under the posted speed limit. If driving the speed limit, then they have as much right to be in the left lane as one who speeds, maybe more right because they are following...

If you put clean fuel in a clean transfer tank, you should never have to worry about contamination. That of course means that you have to do your part and make sure that you are not introducing any contaminants when you refuel the transfer tank.

Not to mention that the kiosk screens have who knows what germs from the people that use them. There are always kids with their bugger filled hands smearing the screens. No thank you!

It sounds to me like that tank had long term sulfur deposits from when fuel oil still had high sulfur content.

Here is the sign for fuel prices from the station just down the street from me. This is today, April 4, 2026. Gasoline going down and Diesel going up.

I have the tanks as i previously mentioned in an earlier post. Mine is ratchet strapped in similar to what McMxi has and I have never had it move even 1 inch during hard braking when I ran over a deer in Colorado last year. The tank is stable as long as it is strapped in good.

The good news is that the average price for fuel is going down. It is slow in doing so at stations that don't sell a high volume of fuel, like the one just down the road from me. It may take a week or so longer for their prices to come down, but as the statewide average prices come down, the...
