Good point about the tanker stirring up trouble, guys. I never gave it a thought but I'll avoid getting gas when I see the tanker there.

True: a 1 gallon can or even a quart would be plenty to tell you whether there's a difference. I've even started and run a car for awhile on a beer can full! I'm sure it's "possible" to tow these cars but you'd need to make up a special tow bar to attach to the frame, since I doubt the bumpers are up to the task. I think newer tow trucks do have some sort of arrangement which lifts the car by the wheels, which might be OK if there's clearance for the straps, etc., but you couldn't lift either end very far before the other end started to scrape. I'd be a lot more comfortable with my car on a flatbed or a trailer. When you look up the plugs in the book at the store, the plug gap should be listed there, too. Good luck and keep us posted.
