No, just some small insect that could take out a tank that J.A.
couldn't just blast off with his pressure washer.  :)

BTW, I know next to nothing about tanks, but I can't recall much
on a bulldozer (other than the exposed engine) that a pressure
washer could hurt.  I've never seen a zirc fitting let water
into the inner bearings.

Just out of curiousity, do you use a steering wheel on a tank
or two levers like a 'dozer?  I'm guess the levers may have once
been used but not currently.
