# <center> _Well Hello There Fellow Technicians And Hivers!_ </center>

-----------------------


**_Bruv, Now What Is This?_**




_Well here I thought I was going to be working on transmissions and transmissions only, with the exception of differentials and transfer cases! Basically anything with a gear inside!_

_Now why do I have a fuel tank in front of me? Dude why?_


_Well you'll never guess why! A few weeks back we received a police vehicle and it was asked of us to just swap out one injector and be done with it. Hmmm yeah easier said than done, right? It's always like that!_

_That injector they supplied was buggered, it kept over-fueling the cylinder and then it started running away!_

_Now we have to do all four of them and clean the fuel tank!_

**_Pressure Gets The Job Done!_**



_Pressure always gets the job done! Of-course I used the pressure washer to get rid of all that diesel and dirt._

_Why what's the problem? We are going to clean the tank! Laughs! Isn't that what I'm busy with?_

_I also don't know why I have to be the one doing the cleaning! Oh wait!_

**_That's How You Lose A Job!_**



_Now here's the actual reason why I am doing it._

_We phoned the place that usually cleans the radiators and well fuel tanks for us, they came and picked it up and five minutes later they were back._


_A stupid reason to be honest, they wanted us to remove the fuel pump from the tank. Now if we do that, we might as well clean it ourselves right?_
_Nothing fancy to it really, the tank is plastic and it's fairly easy to get in everywhere, really it was! I'll show you later!_

_I was shocked at how clean I was able to get it!_

**_Damn The Tank Is Dirty Again!_**


_So this is the thing they were too scared to remove! Okay rather the cap on the tank behind it!_

_Here is the thing! If it didn't break with me then it should not break with anyone else! Unless you don't check what you do!_

_Maybe that's just me!_

**_I'm Content!_**

_So is Bossman! I think this one can be re-fitted after I re-installed the fuel pump!_

_Why waste money sending it in for cleaning, they wont do much more than that._

_Until the next set of things to do! Stay safe people and be blessed!_
