Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

        Well that's all well and good if your nozzle fits the hole. Otherwise you end up spraying all over the bodywork and have to hose her down afterwards

            normally the high flow pumps are away from the rest of the bowsers so that the trucks can get in and out without hitting stuff and tearing the roof off

              I reckon they should make it adaptable so that it can accept the big ones and the little ones

                I can think of a great response to this comment but it's way off topic and I don't think the mods would like it

                    You got away with post # 13, so I say go for it. They'll probably be laughing so hard they won't be able to press the delete button anyway

                        Naaa, after careful consideration it probably wouldn't have been a great response after all and one thing that comes with age is wisdom, and I'm wise enough to quit while I'm ahead at least on this thread (for the moment anyway)

                          You're probably right. Sometimes something seems hilarious at the time you first thought of it, but on reflection it turns out to (a) be not quite so funny, and (b) offend or upset someone (that you didn't think of at the moment of artistic inspiration). I'm sure another irresistable temptation will pop up later somewhere else

                            Yeah, I'm sure the opportunity will arise again sometime and I'll be waiting to strike

                                The other day I filled up at a place called Amco or something, it only had 1 diesel pump, and was a small nozzle.
                                but damm! it was fast, did like 20L before I could blink, then I think it slowed down a tiny bit.
                                but there was a truck behind me waiting to use it, so I guess some places try to find a happy medium.
