I live in northern WI. I treat my fuel whenever I go home. As I park my truck 70 miles from where I live, I always have 3 aluminum turkey roasting pans, 2 bags of charcoal, and some lighting fluid in my pick up.
If I ever get there and it’s gelled, start the charcoal in all three pans, slide one under each tank, and one under the engine bay OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE OIL PAN. As they are made of fiberglass and will burn and u don’t want that. Go get coffee and wait about an hour. Come back and everything’s thawed out and good to gocke, Siinman, Keepforgettingmypassword and 5 others Thank this. -
Had a guy fuel in Jacksonville, in December, and deliver to Thunder Bay. On. that one took 24 hours in a heated garage, after the towing, to thaw...$$$

I will prolly get a job doing shift work or a rotating schedule depending where your from. Then start a handy man service in my off time. Cord wood, landscaping, general house maintenance. Deck building. Light bulb changing. Auto repair. I get bored so easy. The job will pay the bills the side work buy the toys.
My uncle used to say do what you love the money will follow. Hope this helps.gekko1323, cke, Siinman and 1 other person Thank this.
