Much of that is pure BS. Spain, during peak periods, makes half of it's country's electricity from wind. So they are making 50%, and the USA less then 1%, and we're doing more??
If you go by the amount of alternative power made versus national demand, the USA is way down low on the list of producers.
If you go by the amount of alternative power made versus the population, the USA again is way down low on the list.
If you go by the average income of citizens versus money invested in alternative energy, USA loses again.

I'm on 100% solar and I don't know of anyone else in my area doing it - which seems to be the trend for much of the USA.

At any rate we decided that a compression test was in order so we could verify the internal engine status. That way we wouldn't buy any tune up parts until we were sure that the engine was in reasonable mechanical condition. Our tests showed a fictional compression reading of 85, 80, 82 and 86 psi. That is well within a
