are some tricks to get more of your money’s worth for every
gallon..

Here at the Kinder Morgan Pipeline where I work in San Jose ,
CA we deliver about 4 million gallons in a 24-hour period thru the pipeline.

One day is diesel the next day is jet fuel, and gasoline, regular and premium
grades. We have 34-storage tanks here with a total capacity of 16,800,000
gallons.

Only buy or fill up your car or truck in the early morning

when the ground temperature is still cold. Remember that all service stations
have their storage tanks buried below ground. The colder the ground the more
dense the gasoline, when it gets warmer gasoline expands, so buying in the

afternoon or in the evening….your gallon is not exactly a gallon. In the
petroleum business, the specific gravity and the temperature of the gasoline,
diesel and jet fuel, ethanol and other petroleum products plays an important

role.

A 1-degree rise in temperature is a big deal for this business.
But the service stations do not have temperature compensation at the
pumps.

When you’re filling up do not squeeze the trigger of the nozzle

to a fast mode. If you look you will see that the trigger has three (3)stages:
low, middle, and high. In slow mode you should be pumping on low speed,
thereby minimizing the vapors that are created while you are pumping. All

hoses at the pump have a vapor return. If you are pumping on the fast rate,
some other liquid that goes to your tank becomes vapor. Those vapors are being
sucked up and back into the underground storage tank so you’re getting less

worth for your money.

One of the most important tips is to fill up when
your gas tank is HALF FULL or HALF EMPTY. The reason for this is, the more gas
you have in your tank the less air occupying its empty space. Gasoline

evaporates faster than you can imagine. Gasoline storage tanks have an
internal floating roof. This roof serves as zero clearance between the gas and
the atmosphere, so it minimizes the evaporation. Unlike service stations, here

where I work, every truck that we load is temperature compensated so that
every gallon is actually the exact amount.

Another reminder, if there
is a gasoline truck pumping into the storage tanks when you stop to buy gas,

DO NOT fill up–most likely the gasoline is being stirred up as the gas is
being delivered, and you might pick up some f the dirt that normally settles
on the bottom. Hope this will help you get the most value for your money.

WHERE TO BUY USA GAS, THIS IS
VERY IMPORTANT TO KNOW. READ ON

Gas rationing in the 80’s worked even
though we grumbled about it. It might even be good for us! The Saudis are

boycotting American goods. We should return the favor.

An interesting
thought is to boycott their GAS.

Every time you fill up the car, you
can avoid putting more money into the coffers of Saudi Arabia. Just buy from

gas companies that don’t import their oil from the Saudis.

Nothing is
more frustrating than the feeling that every time I fill-up the tank, I am
sending my money to people who are trying to kill me, my family, and my

friends.

I thought it might be interesting for you to know which oil
companies are the best to buy gas from and which major companies import Middle
Eastern oil.

These companies import Middle Eastern

oil:

Shell……………………… 205,742,000
barrels

Chevron/Texaco……… 144,332,000 barrels

Exxon
/Mobil…………… 130,082,000 barrels

Marathon/Speedway…
117,740,000 barrels

Amoco……………………….62,231,000
barrels

Citgo gas is from South America, from a Dictator who hates
Americans. If you do the math at $30/barrel, these imports amount to over $18
BILLION! (oil is now $90 - $100 a barrel

Here are some large companies
that do not import Middle Eastern oil:

Sunoco………………0
barrels

Conoco………………0
barrels

Sinclair……………..0 barrels

B

P/Phillips…………0 barrels

Hess…………………..0
barrels

ARC0………………..0 barrels

If you go to
Sunoco.com, you will get a list of the station locations near you.

All
of this information is available from the Department of Energy and each is
required to state where they get their oil and how much they are
importing.

But to have an impact, we need to reach literally millions

of gas
buyers. It’s really simple to do.

Now, don’t wimp out at
this point…. keep reading and I’ll explain how simple it is to reach
millions of people!!

I’m sending this note to about thirty people. If

each of you send it to at least ten more (30 x 10 = 300)…and those 300 send
it to at least ten more (300 x 10 = 3,000) .. and so on, by the time the
message reaches the sixth generation of people, we will have reached over

THREE MILLION consumers !!!!!!! If those three million get excited and pass
this on to ten friends each, then 30 million people will have been contacted!

If it goes one level further, you guessed it ….. THREE HUND RED

MILLION PEOPLE!!!

Again, all you have to do is send this to 10 people.
How long would all that take?

every summer our gas goes up because we don’t have enough refinery capacity…again, our inept congress is in bed with the environmentalists who will not allow us to build new refineries. We need more refinery capacity.

just a few novel ideas.

How many big oil companies will report $12 BILLON profits next quarter after they report excuses and reasons behind the “need” to jack prices up so high?
