If you bathe your self and gasoline, it kills the Covid virus. I’m not sure if there’s other bad affects though.
Been known to cause cancer in laboratory rats, or so I’ve heard.

I do know the smell of gasoline on a man seems to bother women substantially, and usually not in a good way. If you’re not sure what I mean, wash you hands in gasoline before you go see Sweet Pea next time, I’m sure she will explain the problem, lol

I’m sure she would, on the return visit after I got thrown out!

If you light up a smoke (cigar, what have you...) afterward on the plus side you won't have to shave for a couple years, but there's some other lasting effects in that same time period...

Ehh, it’s easier to find ones that tolerate cigars. Gasoline, not so much.

My wife was not thrilled (at all, may I add) when I came into the house smelling of old gasoline...

Well I went to wash off the mud and sand mix from my desert adventures a couple weeks ago on the '90 but some dumbass decided to pre rinse it in my pond and got algae and grass wrapped around the axles which is what I want to work on so I'll have to pressure wash it tomorrow...

On that note I found my extended radius arm materials so that's going to happen soon...

Just purchased a replacement for my broken instrument cluster bezel on eBay. Mine wasn't bad broken, but the locations for mounting up into the dash above the cluster had all cracked and broken out. Likely from my over tightening it in the past. Nothing that stopped it from working, but I know its broken and it annoys me. I'll have to be a bit more gentle when installing this one.

Tomorrow (later today) I'll be installing a digital oil pressure gauge and a new sender for the dash gauge, to see if actually have an oil pressure issue or just the gauge acting up.
