Many people look at fuel filters either as something that they just don’t need or that they don’t want to deal with. Others often take attitudes such as thinking that their fuel is already clean enough or that just a little water in the tank won’t hurt anything.

The fact is that fuel filters act as your last line of defense against any water or junk that may have snuck into your tank before that fuel hits your engine and seriously messes things up.

Putting water into your vehicle’s tank can cause all sorts of headaches from tank corrosion to fuel-system freeze-ups during the cold winter months, not to mention that dirt and rust particulates can add even more problems. Over our next few blog entries, we will be discussing fuel filters and how they help keep your pumps and vehicles running at full capacity. So whether you have your own Fill-Rite in the backyard for your dirt bikes or you are supplying fuel with a large Gilbarco dispenser, make sure you keep reading for some great fuel filter tips.

Many people like to fill the stocking of their loved ones with practical items that are known to be needed such as socks, toothbrushes and the greatly undesired Christmas themed underwear.  Sure, these items might be a necessity, but who wants gifts that you can get on your own? This year instead of purchasing the practical items that they expect, surprise them with something that they can use while looking cool at the same time.

The Harley Davidson line of safety apparel are top-quality products that come in a wide selection of styles to fit any look you might desire. Not only will these products make you look good, they keep you safe while you work as well. The Harley Davidson gloves come in several different styles from welding and mechanics to simple riding gloves while the glasses are all built to meet safety standards so that you can use them on or off the road. So whether you need a new pair of riding glasses or some gloves for around the shop, Harley Davidson has the stocking stuffers that you are looking for at prices that are hard to beat.

Every family has the “tool nut” that has just about every kind of hammer, saw and screwdriver set known to man. So how do you surprise the person who always knows there will be brand new tools wrapped under the tree? Why not give them the gift of many tools all in a nine-ounce package?

The Gerber Multi-Plier 800 Urban Legend is a rugged stainless steel spring loaded set of pliers that holds many stainless steel tools such as a knife blade, scissors, interchangeable saw blade, Phillips screwdriver, bottle opener, file and small, medium and large screwdrivers all in one. Besides having all of these tools all in one place, the Gerber 800 Urban Legend features Gerber’s patented S.A.F.T. PLUS lock to securely lock all of the tools into place. The comfortable spring loaded handles are built to deliver a level of ergonomics and comfort that many multi-tools just don’t have. Also unlike many other multi-tools, the tools are all accessible while the handles are folded closed.

So if you are having problems coming up with that extra stocking stuffer idea that will throw your family’s “tool nut” for a loop, look no further. The Gerber Multi-Plier 800 Urban Legend has everything you need.

So far we’ve discussed how Excel Equipment can help you prepare for the coming winter months and even given you a couple of suggestions to assist in your search for those perfect holiday gifts. This means you’re bundled up in your new Carhartt winter clothing while putting away the lawnmower on the Titan four-post lift in the garage that is kept warm and toasty with your new FireLake waste oil heater, right? Of course you’ve already got those perfect holiday gifts wrapped and ready to go as well, but there is one thing that you might have forgotten about. The stocking stuffers!

Finding the right items to put into a stocking can be rather frustrating.

From Gerber tools to Harley Davidson riding glasses, we’ve got plenty of small gift items that are sure to surprise and please this holiday season. During the next couple of blog posts, I will be highlighting some of these items and giving you the low-down about them as well.
