all dogs are cuter when their puppies!

Hows things with you paul.. and lauren? Engaged yet?

no pressure though :P

Its been 6 months already, damn. time flies eh.

So now hes big enough to jump all over you every time you walk in the door and make genearl nusiance of himself. Or is that just my dog.....

Thanks liz, i noticed the cruze post and was thinking about it but realised it was the same night as my best friends 21st.

Obs went to pup school, sat on all the puppies there... cos he was um about 10 times the size of the other puppies.

Hes such a well behaved dog. He can go down the beach off lead, no worries and at the park. He loves to play with other dogs, but as soon as you call him he comes right back (99% of the time.... that 1% is when hes "playing" with a good looking female dog.... he is male i guess).

boost, he doesnt jump up when u get home. He get ignored for about 1/2 an hour, then i go say hello to him. He sometimes jumps up but then gets smacked on the head so he stops. Although hes still a puppy and can be really stupid and clumsy. Hes got long legs, and still doesnt know how to use them propley. When he comes inside, he cant get grip on the wooden floors, hes legs go all over the place. he doesnt have much coordination. You would think a decent sized brain would be in that boofy head of his, but um we are yet to see any intellgence!

Ive got a new bird too (glah) and obs and him are best buddies. They even give each other kisses. Bruce (the galah) is really tame and comes out of the cage we have for him outside. Obs licks his head and bruce gives him little bird kisses on his noes. Its the funniest thing to see. The bird isnt scared of him at all and obi is sooo gentle with him. Its really sweet when u go out in the morning and Obi has his chin resting on the ledge on the side of the cage, and bruse is down there right next to him, both asleep.

    • The sodium acetate, mixed with citric acid, doesn't actually buffer each other. Interestingly though, if you used Sodium Acetate, and acetic acid, THAT becomes a buffer solution. Additionally, a weak acid that can attack a metal, is still a weak acid that can attack a metal. If you don't neutralise it, and wash it off, it's going to be able to keep attacking. It works the same way when battery acid dries, get that stuff somewhere, and then it gets wet, and off it goes again breaking things down. There's a reason why people prefer a weak acid, and it's because they want TIME to be able to be on their side. IE, DIY guys are happy to leave some mild steel in vinegar for 24 hours to get mill scale off. However, if you want to do it chemically in industry, you grab the muriatic acid. If you want to do it quicker at home, go for the acetic acid if you don't want muriatic around. At the end of the day, look at the above thumbnail, as it proves what I said in the earlier post, you can clean that fuel tank up all you want with the solution, but the rust that has now been removed was once the metal of the fuel tank. So how thin in spots is your fuel tank getting? If the magazine on the left, is the actual same magazine as on the right, you'll notice it even introduces more holes... Well, rust removal in general actually does that. The fuel tank isn't very thick. So, I'll state again, look to replace the tank, replace the fuel hanger, and pump, work out how the rust and shit is making it past the fuel filter, and getting into the injectors. That is the real problem. If the fuel filter were doing its job, the injectors wouldn't be blocked.
    • Despite having minimal clothing because of the hot weather right now, I did have rubber gloves and safety glasses on just in-case for most of the time. Yes, I was scrubbing with my gloves on before, but brushing with a brush removes the remaining rust. To neutralize, I was thinking distilled water and baking soda, or do you think that would be overkill?
    • You can probably scrub the rust with a toothbrush or something. After you get the rust off flush well with water to neutralize and you will probably want to also use a fuel tank sealer to keep it from rusting again.
    • The sodium citrate solution is designed to buffer the citric acid to keep it from attacking metal quite so much, the guy that came up with that recipe did a ton of testing on how much metal loss occurs over time and it's nothing crazy unless you forget about it for months:
