Evening guys.
Aaron there is NO WAY you are fat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
On another note this state s**ks, I was driving home today and they must have just painted the yellow line ( no signs of wet paint or anything ) and now the wheel wells and mudflaps are yellow.
I also have a little paint on the side of the truck put that should come off with a clay bar.
Ant one have any ideas on how to get the sh** off the wheel wells ?

You can try mineral spirits, it might cut through that crap without harming the wheel wells.

I recommend making the paint inside the wheel wells disappear with a can of black Rustoleum. Always works out well for me.
PS: You're supposed to drive next to the yellow line not on it. (I kid I know the roads out by you are narrow)

dimethyl sulfaoxide is a sort of universal solvent.
It's also the only thing I know of that works to soften cured epoxy without a lot of heat.
Aaron would know because it's often used as a liniment on horses to deliver anti-inflammatories directly through the skin.
There's the rub. You need to wear nitrile gloves because if you get it on your skin almost anything will pass right through (like the amine hardener in the epoxy)

well bad luck must have struck us today..
- couldnt do our only pool because the bobcat wasnt gonna go up a fleet of stairs to the backyard
- on the way home, the truck slowly dies then wont crank back over. towed to monaco ford
- take my truck to fix a leaking filter, had to go over a road they just coated with stones and oil and got oil all over my left side wheel wells and brand new exhaust tip .. not a very good day so far

if you listen during the very start of the video you hear a "clink-clunk" and thats what happens when we turned the key. when it first died, it slowly lost power til we got in a parking lot and it stalled. then we were able to crank it back over, had it running for a few seconds then slowly died. checked the fuel pump shutoff, checked all fuses, drained the water separator. nothin. then it started making the noise in that video, so we guessed it sounded like the starter, tried hitting it but nothing. if he could afford a new one, my guess is that 6.0 would be in that parking lot on fire right now..
