  1. The Napier-Deltic Diesel Where on L.I.? The only other one I saw was in Philly Navy Yard. Paul
  2. Jimmy Carter was on BBC today explaining what we need to do in Russia and how he has been asked to advise Osammamma. Carter is also going to help Obammama come to grips with helping the Afro American Community. . . God help us because the pair of them don't have the brains to pour pee out of a boot if the directions on how to do it was on the bottom. Paul

  4. This was Shell down from LIE Exit 66 in Yaphank. New owners new prices. I usually fuel up at the Indian Reservation in Mastic, Diesel is half a buck cheaper than anywhere else. I was just lazy and on the way to ADESSA. I pulled in to the station and pulled out.Fueled up a Hess for $4.19 Paul
  5. Apparently a Suffolk county legislator anounced a bill to limit credit card costs and a few of the stations found they could hit you a $1 more for credit debit legally in Suffolk County N.Y. I was told by the Suffolk County Consumers Hot Line it is scattered and they are going after the stations that are doing it. THe said to save my receipt if I purchased fuel. We'll See Paul
  6. Yes about 10 years or so. There was an article on it but not in English
  7. Went to fuel up and see almost a $1 cost per gallon more than the cash price to use a credit or debit card $4.29.9 cash , $5.27.9 debit or credit. Checked a few stations and they all are the same. Is that a N.Y. thing or is it all over and whats it pay for? Tax, processing fee? The attendant had no idea why. Damned if I'll pay an extra $50/60 per fuel up, Just plain can't afford it with this never ending winter. Paul

  14. There is a great book by Squadron on Pumpers. It shows the entire Super Pumper System, The two tractor trailer units and the 4 satellite units. The pumper engine is a British Napier-Deltic 18 cylinder turbocharged and blown 2400 horsepower diesel engine....The last quoted price on a rebuild was over $75,000.00.about 15 or 20 years ago. This is one of the MACK satellite trucks for the pumper system. Paul
