Anyone ever see this happen? It is a new one for me. Customer said he changed tanks and his truck would not start. He said he thought there was water in the LP tank. I thought "yeah, right". I pulled the hose off the carb and sure enough it looked like water. Pulled the spark plugs and all were wet. I was thinking that maybe the Impco regulator had corroded enough to let the coolant get in to the fuel chamber. Then I checked the hose connector up by the tank and it sure looked like droplets of water. Took the tank and hose off, set it on the floor and opened the valve. Water came roaring out. Very wierd.

Fact of the week
The origin of "love" as the score zero in tennis is debated, but two main theories prevail. One suggests it's derived from the French word "l'oeuf" (egg) which resembles the shape of the number zero. The other proposes it's related to the Dutch word "lof" meaning "honour" as players might be playing for honour when scoreless.
