AH! Now I get it. They could have just got some gas and been out of there. Then again, if they mixed the gas together with what was already in the car as in same matter in same space they could have destroyed the entire universe. Granted, that is the worst case scenario. You could also theorize that had they disturbed the car stored in the mine there is a chance it wouldn't have survived until 1955. They knew as it sat then that it would but perhaps going back in the mine could have made something unstable enough to the car didn't survive for 1955. That did hurt the brain a bit. Just what I needed this late. ;) Greg -----Original Message----- From: DMCForum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:DMCForum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Jack Stiefel Sent: Tuesday, August 01, 2006 12:35 AM To: dmcforum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: [DMCForum] BTTF issues.... Man am I tired You're not thinking 4th dimentionally. Yes but the 1885 car was not the same one that was in the mine... That one was a past version. The timeline has the car going back from 1955 (end of part II) to 1885 where it sat for 70 years before Doc and Marty dug it out. Then it went back to 1885 to save Doc. In the mine in 1885 is a perfectly good DeLorean sitting there only a few months old with a tank of gas. All they needed to do was fix the fuel line and take a gallon or so of gas from the mine car, that would still keep it ready for 1955 marty to dig it up and run it back to 1885. Boy that was circular...

Man am I tired Wasn't the fuel line damaged in 1885 when the arrow hit the car? In 1955 the gas left over from 1885 would have been bad, and we all know the tank would have needed a thorough cleaning. DMCH's tank kit hadn't been created yet. :) Greg -----Original Message----- From: HYPERLINK "mailto:DMCForum%40yahoogroups.com"DMCForum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:HYPERLINK "mailto:DMCForum%40yahoogroups.com"DMCForum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Jack Stiefel Sent: Monday, July 31, 2006 11:47 PM To: HYPERLINK "mailto:dmcforum%40yahoogroups.com"dmcforum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [DMCForum] BTTF issues.... Man am I tired Ok so here is the situation... After a nice date night with my wife we sat down and are watching BTTF III on tv...romantic huh?? Lol The kids are enjoying it. Well I have a question. Marty breaks a fuel line in the 1955 DeLorean so no gas... Why don't they take some fuel from the car that's stored in the mine? Further where did they get fresh gas in 1955? Was there unleaded gas in 1955? Stop me if this has been covered, and the answer "cause the movie would be short" won't cut it lol.
