Since you can burn coal have you thought about lighting the truck?

We pay insurance for a reason. It’s a Rover, just make it look like an accident which isn’t really that hard to do.

Ha!
Sad thing is, if I fix it, that would be when it would catch fire.
And, when I first pulled the engine, the plastic elbow that connects the fuel line to the fuel rail, crumbled in my hand.
In hindsight, really, it couldn't have leaked and burned before hand?! lol
I still really like D2's, but I've about had it with this one.

Jeep motors are no better, it’s the luck of the draw and who did what when.

Lot of Bubba mowtor werkz on my F150. Runs good but I spend most of my time shaking my head and wondering how the hell that didn't burst in to flames or kill me outright

Funny you mention flames, CL Jag XJS V12 $750. First pic is of the back end, almost Concouse? Three pics later and the front is charred to the bone. Gee, now I see.
