If you’re going to use a cute “saying” it should be something generally recognized or understood by the audience.
And after looking up what you could have possibly meant by the saying, I still have no idea wth you’re talking aboot. However a small recommendation would be less googling for you.
That whole green M&M is kinda disturbing and weird and who cares….
Startin to worry about ya Scoob!

Scoober hears his own drum beat. A bit different from normal. If you can understand his meaning... that is not a good thing!

I'm just glad he has recovered from his obsession of SNOT, that he mentioned in most posts. A step forward for sure...good for you Scoob!

Sorry, trying to duck politics. Maybe I should of used Mr Potato Head or some children book that the same people that are telling you to set your hair on fire about gas stove wanted you to be mad about.
If the moderators will allow I will show you what I mean. Couple of years back 1 network was pushing a major story, and covered to some extent by all others. Now the network is being sued because of false statements made pushing that story. I don't know what is being said on that network, but it is widely reported the network people telling the story at the time are under oath, declaring they never believed what they said on air. It has been reported they demanded the 1 that told truth on air be fired for hurting stock price. One Email exchange, reported by BBC, discusses how the ideas a guest is pushing are totally outrageous, but the viewers are stupid enough to believe.
Pro Tip; do a search voting machine manufactures vs Fox.
Now the same group has reported some investigation into possible reduction of pollution from gas stove into THEY ARE GOING TO TAKE YOUR STOVE!
Critical thinking could solve a lot of issues.

Dream on if you think the ----- types will let you have one of these. They are busy attacking gas stoves right now after all.

But at least we don't need to see the high heels on green M&Ms.

Many forklifts and other equipment that runs inside buildings use propane fueled ICE, because of reduced pollution

I worked in that industry for awhile, so I have some experience.

Propane's biggest issue is the space required for the tank the seasonal price. If you have a fleet and have the space for your own refill station and have a HUGE tank, you can negotiate a good price during the off season.

Retail fills will kill you during the heating season !

"Cummins’ biggest embrace yet of a growing menu of low carbon fuels will be applied across their B Series, L Series and X Series engine lineup. Fuel choices will include diesel, natural gas, hydrogen, propane or gasoline. Once spec’d, engines will run on one fuel only.

The first engine expected to roll out in 2024 will be a 6.7-liter gasoline-ready option, which Cummins sees as a good fit for pickups and other vehicles needing “diesel-like durability and performance,” according to Cummins’ president of engine business Srikanth Padmanabhan"

Don't forget the 6.7 cummins that was featured in the video is a propane only engine. This thing has spark plugs.

Let me say I'm no automotive engineer, I was going on posts like this:

ack of lubrication is a universal problem in the diesel world - older vehicles weren’t built to run on ultra low sulfur diesel (ULSD) and new vehicles are built with extremely tight tolerances, producing higher pressure and temperature, making the lack of lubricity possibility catastrophic. Every single diesel engine injection system relies on diesel fuel as a lubricant to protect and lubricate all the moving parts within the fuel system including injectors, in-line pumps and injection pumps. If the lubrication of the fuel isn’t good enough, the internal components begin to wear against themselves and can fail from excessive wear.

yes, before ULSD the fuel pumps relied on the sulphur for some lubrication. it was for the high pressure fuel pump, and injectors, not the valves.

However any diesel sold afer about 2005 is designed for ULSD
