I don't get it either. I have seen rural fire departments run a tanker truck and a pumper truck. Put out a giant kid pool. Tanker truck dumps water into it. Pumper truck sucks it up and runs over and fights fire. Then come back to kiddy pool. Tanker truck runs too a creek or lake sucks up water runs back to kiddy pool and dumps water there.
How hard is it to have a system set up to suck up water and relay it up to areas. Have a bunch of construction companies on contract to relay water.

there was 1 way in and 1 way out of the palasaids thats why folks abandoned their vehicle they never made escape routes because the dumb ### libs didnt want to disturb the brush rodents . Its also why fire engines would abandon a street rather than get trapped , there was no way out .

It's electric heat. I'm ok with it. Just wear a stockings hat. Long sleeve shirt. Drink hot liquids. When it's 25 out the trailer is warm.

I want to buy a ac heat pump split unit. Just haven't done it yet.

Laundry day. Going to mess with power steering pump on the 230k mile car. Put new one on yesterday and it leaks. Going with a new o ring. I might just get a new car. Like 6 years old 50k mile type car.

Oh I get it now! It’s 7 degrees outside, but you are going to work on a power steering pump. So it’s actually 60 degrees in your shop right?

No, it was 27 at 1 pm and 20 mph wind. About 10 to 15 minutes fingers were numb. Power steering fluid on hands didn't help.

Still fighting with Progressive on insurance fraud… now they say if I don’t pay ALL outstanding charges immediately, (they worked it down to $13,000 +/-) they will deactivate my insurance policy tomorrow. To say I am frustrated is the understatement of the year. First they said I would have results within 24 hours. Then 48 hours. Now 30 days. Local officer that filed the fraud report called me the other evening,said he is now working with a detective from Cali. He said this case is huge, involving 1,000s of people from sea to shining sea. Scheme is run by Pakistanis living in the US. They steal identities, then hide behind those identities to steal other people’s identities. Such as my operating authority and insurance policy. Almost starting to think Progressive is involved, going off the runaround they are giving me.

A shot, if it is a little leak from shaft area. There used to be a product "Smooth Seal". Was pushed as good to "swell" the seals in automatic trans vs rebuild.
Stop gap measure and would reduce leaks some and help one a lot if not metal wear problems. There should be something on the market now that might improve the situation for your limited use.
