Hmmm....maybe they think they can sell Volts to the French, wonder how many GM will ship over there before they figure out the electricity over there is different. Part of me also says WTF? another part realizes that automobile manufacturing is a global business and anyone wanting to stay in the game needs presence in the Asian, European and American markets. I think Mercedes Benz's unwillingness to play nicely with Mitsubishi when they both had a stake in Chrysler doomed the merger and will eventually lead to Mercedes leaving the automobile business. But GM getting tied up with Peugeot? I can't see an upside, European Operations (Opel) are still loosing money, their presence in Sweden (Saab) just filed bankruptcy after they blocked the sale of it to the Chinese and it will probably be dissolved. How many Swedes will wonder why they have money to dump in the bottomless pit that is the French Auto industry but can't meet it's obligations at Saab? It'll be interesting to see what falls out. We have the Nissan-Renault alliance, The Chrysler-Fiat alliance, Volkswagen announcing it's intentions to become the largest manufacturer of Automobiles in the world, Ford reorganizing it's organization with a new strategy where it divested itself of foreign brands (Volvo, Land Rover, Mazda and Jaguar) and trying global operations/marketing under one name and of course the current #1 Toyota, what's their plan to stay #1?

To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
