What do You See?

I had this picture sent to me to get one of the pipes renewed. I was scanning through the shots quickly and had to stop to see this one in all it's glory.

Re: Diesel Fuel Treatment

I agree, test. Don't add bug killer if you already have contaminated fuel. If you have bugs, you can try calling a tank cleaning company and see if you can swing a deal for tank cleaning for fuel. Make sure the cleaning water is Hot, 70*c . Then treat the tank with Aderco to prevent a water \fuel in...

Re: 3rd class oral exam questions

When you write, remember all 9 questions that you get. Write them down as soon as you walk out of the examination room. Brush up on the 6 you answered and read up on the 3 you didn't. Saying that, when I wrote my 3rds and 2nds ( many years ago), the Examiner walked in with a stack of examination que...

Re: TC Website

Did you find them? I eventually found them after much looking last month. Their site was always bad, but now you have to look at 6 different things to find what you need. My favorite is when it shunts you over to other government department's home page, that has a different search engine and you hav...

Called TC to talk to a Surveyor, ended up talking to 2 different guys, was given a third fellows phone number to call. Ran into on...

Re: Cruise Ship Lock Out procedures in the Dark ages. Why?

We've never had any of our ships there, we deal a lot with Verrault which is in the Gaspe area.
It must be chilly and snowy there.
Now that I have throughly pulled the thread of topic, I will get out. Sorry.
