    Rick Perry will reportedly ‘make clear’ he’s running for president on Saturday

    Everyone makes mistakes and some even admit it. The dipstick that's rulling now has made none, (just ask him). I think Perry is strong and I think he can beat the dipstick. Anyway whoever is nominated needs to have strong backing by America to get us out of the mess we're in now. ;)

    fuel problem

    If your using or have used bio diesel, always use a fuel additive to take out moisture. Algae forms from water and bio diesel as well as gas with ethynal added collects water. Most problems with rubber fuel lines rotting etc is because of the moisture in the system.
