First, creating this topic was amazing, cause I felt a bit like Ponch for a second.
Now, I'm having this problem.
Spoiler

Near that tank that has fallen over the cliff, yeah, the postal tank, there's a mailbot that requires fixing, I'm using the Multi-power tool, but the puzzle with the splitter and the enhancer makes no sense to me... i have no idea what to do really. So any hints or instructions or if they are in-game and I missed them, would be great. I'd like a direct solution in case i need it. Just leave it lying there.

Feel like me? Baby, you practically are me. You do more to promote the Barn Runner games in this community than I do!  ;)

Anyhoo, in regards to the Mailbot puzzle:

Hint 1:
It's a math problem.

Hint 2:
Spoiler
(a plus or minus b)  (divided or multiplied by c)  (plus or minus another set of numbers) == 18 )
[close]
Hint 3:
Spoiler
((4+2) (x 2)) + (5 + 1)) = 18
[close]
Hint 4:
Picture of the solved puzzle

I feel I'm closing in!

I need a clue on where to look about that canvas that May needs. I got the crayons already. And i have the pickle, so all I need is the wild onions. Then cow will give me the onions, i'll give the items bla bla, get a burger, and see Eileen Delroy ()hopefully). And a clue on how to get on the postal bunker would be nice. Unless the first clue connects there, so I'm good.

Postal Bunker
Spoiler
Have you fixed Mailbot yet?
[close]
If so, when you talk to him about the wreck, Prick will offer to go to Bobbi's place and get a tow truck.
Spoiler
Of course, when you ask her, she'll say her tow truck is broken. She recommends looking for Farmer Brown and his big tractor. So start looking in places where he might go. And there's only place that everyone in town has to go... for all their shopping needs... ;)
[close]
Once you've met Farmer Brown, you can borrow the tractor and save Maibot. After that, just go back to the Postal Bunker and talk to the sentries again. They'll let you in just like they promised they would when you offered to go find Mailbot. Take the package to the cow and the rest should fall in place! :D

Hope that helps!

What package?  I already got there, and i got the pickle creek and pony ranch and mr.brown's farm.

The cow sends you to the Postal Bunker to get a package for her. It's a large yellow rectangle (not the small brown box you find at the Amish farm).
Spoiler
Talk to Cole, the guy standing inside the mail vault and he'll put it on the table for you. Take it and give it to the cow and you'll have another transmitter up.  :)

Did you try buying some at the General Store? When you do, Clem says he stopped carrying them because a certain group kept stealing them.

Hint:
Spoiler
After he complains about the orphans stealing them, he tells you to go to the truck stop and steal from them for a change. To the car!
[close]

Look around and talk to the new person you find there. What you'll need to make the trade should be pretty clear once you've spoken with her.

Thanks for playing. I hope that helps. :)

Spoiler
Ponch, if you have a walkthrough txt, please provide. The cow never sent me for a package, all the cow wants is me to pose and to do that, I have to give May, crayons(done) and canvas(no idea where to get one).

If you unlocked the location of the Postal Bunker, then she sent you on the mission to fetch the package. That's the only thing that will unlock that location.

Spoiler
Once you've helped Mailbot get his tank back up the hill, go back to the bunker, talk to the sentries on the roof, go inside, show your badge to the guy standing against the wall, and he'll let you in the vault. Once inside, talk to the guy with the eye patch, tell him you're here to pick up a package. He'll put it on the table. Take it back to the cow and give it to her. That will set up the transmitter.

Try that and let me know if it works.

I need a

If indeed this is the right course of action at this time. Help a dudebro in the making out?  ;D

Spoiler
Go to the outlet/WC of the Hermit and use what you get there on the rat poison. When you use that on the pool of liquid in the junkyard, get the dead rat with the multi-tool and bla bla bla.

Outlet/WC? That sounds like city talk. That sort of thing might get you shot in the BGCZ! 'Round these parts, we call that sort of thing an outhouse.  :=

Hmmm... Not sure if that's dandified city talk or not. If only I spoke your language.  :=

Maybe I've missed something obvious since no one has posted about it.

Spoiler
Where is the torch or flash light? Or what do I use to get in the tunnel at 3 Humps?

Nevermind. In typical fashion, once posted you can solve it yourself.

Spoiler
It's in the fair grounds.

Don't you just hate it when that happens? And here I was ready to ride to the rescue and everything!  ;)

I found that thing by "pure random" clicking...  Holy cow it is too easy to be missed!

Would you please at least make them just a little bit more "observable" in the future?
