Thank god that POS is no longer in commission.
They shut it down years ago because it was soooo unreliable and so inefficient, and soooooo dangerous.
If they ever decided to re-start that hunk of junk I'd quit.
Just thinking about all of the oil companies that have been absorbed in mergers in my lifetime. (48 years). Texaco, Gulf, Pure, Standard Oil...

Remember the ads? "You can trust your car to the man who wears a star, the big, red Texaco star..."
