    'Bobs your uncle' I always did love that statement....don't know what it means and yes, Bob was actually my uncle.

    Once you un-can a can of worms, the only way to re-can them is with a bigger can.

      I have also heard that before. I'm guessing that it is similar to "and there you have it"?

        Oil on the fuel line...........then wonders why it is rotted out............some peoples kids.

        A quick shot of silicone spray does better and doesn't eventually break down the fuel line. I'd be wary of MOST 'how-tos' I've seen on the net. Alot of them are just so inncorrect it's shameful to say the least.......automotive ones also.

          rots out.?

          I must excuse myself,,, I didn't, t realise 1 small drop of engine oil on a rubber pipe designed to carry fuel would cause my fuel line to crack from heat and age much like my intake manifolds
