An Ooops moment

Here's an Ooops or AW Shucks Moment :eek:, by a neighbor. Went over the bank , at such an angle , that the engine would not suck fuel, even though a full tank ??

Anyway put a 2 gallon fuel jug , electric fuel pump, and got the engine going. Then with the D6 , assisting out she came. Nothing damaged , but ego's .

I didn't ask how it happened, nor pressed the issue, LOL .

Anyway, an embarrassing moment, and some wounded pride , cured later by a couple beers. :drinkup:)
