    Good luck man...please be safe! You might as well wait until AG opens and stop by and say hi. Pick me up some stuff too and then make your way to VA! LOL!

    Re: Ran out of fuel 30 from fort lauderdale..stuck on the side of the highway

    I'm no mechanic nor do I know a lot about diesels. But a buddy of mine had his dumpster truck run out of fuel a few weeks back. I went and picked up 5 gallons of fuel for him but he still couldn't get it started. He ended up having to get some starter fluid and spray it into the air filter housing to get it to start up. Once it turned over he had no issues.

    That being said you still need you batteries to be charged so you can turn it over.
