[QUOTE="Talon5, post: 1746333, member: 14435"] Here I am about to shoot myself in the foot ;) Okay the fuel access idea is the only one we have that has any hope of working (in my mind). However who here would store a lawn mower or a car for ten years with fuel in the tank- okay, Professor Q never actually got this thing working and might not have fueled it which means the fuel tank will have no vapor in it, and if it did then the vapor would be gone over the course of the last decade. Okay so maybe billd91 is right and the fuel tank is armored. I mean the fuel access is on the bottom of its foot, behind an access panel that has a security system (we have the code). So worse case here- we trip it, and make it far enough to the panel, get the door open and Dynamo lights the fuel tank- and its armored and has never had any fuel in it, so no boom. Where are we? Right back where we started. Marcinko said something like- 'doing nothing will get nothing wrong and nothing done, doing something and you have a good chance of getting it right,' completely in accurate quote but it sounds like something he would say. We're gonna try, because the only other choice is doing nothing and that will fail to get anything done. Let you guys know how it turns out this Saturday. Thanks all. [/QUOTE]
