Please post a picture of what is existing and I will look at it for design changes to make it work correctly. If the line is not flowing correctly it can not over come the spring in the air vent. Most of the "STUDDER VENTS" as you have are poor in design and a loop vent is a better option. Was this system working correctly before for the 4 years or did it bubble as it drained? What material are the pipes made of and do you have access to the run of pipe? I'll check on this post tomorrow and look at the picture. BTW the use of Drano or other products will not help they are a sucker bet and a snake is the only answer for drains that are slow or clogged. They release soap scum but leave the blockage behind thus a temporary improvement is all you will get from them.

carb had a complete kit and rebuild last fall (done correctly) body was dipped in cleaner and new parts used other than the float (out of stock)but I did't have the true spec on float set so I guessed. I put a inline filter on after the first time the motor quit on me and flooded out. I'm guessing the float drop is too much for full out run on rough water.thanks for the sugestions

Last Falls rebuild is a winters storage away reclean it their is varnish or debris keeping the needle from reseating. I rebuilt all 6 of my carbs on my evinrude drove to Canada ran 5 minutes and smelled fuel. Pulled Carb rack and found I had shaved a piece of rubber when I installed the hoses it was twice the size of a hair but it was enough to make me redue the job. Time frames mean nothing when it is mechanical.

Remove the carb. and pull the needle out. Clean out the the carb using gumout from the fuel hose hook up and spray thru. Then check the tip of the needle for bent or debris. Re assemble the carb and hook a clear hose to the drain port and run upwards to the top of the carb. Replace fuel line from tank to carb with ethanol proof line. then pump the ball till it gets hard. Observe the level of the fuel in the clear hose if it is above the float bowl then bend the tang up to close it off earlier. If the ball doesn't get hard and fuel flows then recheck for debris and bend tang up to get it to close off. If the level of the fuel in the hose is more than 1/4 inch from the top of the float bowl then bend tang down to allow more fuel. Most of the evinrude carbs are set by removing the float bowl and turning upside down the float should be resting 90 degrees level from the pivot point as a rough guideline. Don't go crazy on the bending I suspect it is debris from the fuel tank. BTW if you do not have an inline filter put on in place before you pump up the ball for the first time.

With the warmer water temps. and the lack of flow it is something that is very prevalent down her in the South. The upside is we rarely drink the water from above ground sources unless it is treated by the municipalities. Few camps use other than well water. Be safe and shower after swimming it can irritate some peoples skin and boil boil boil the water.

I don't know, looks perfectly legal to me

 

You promised you wouldn't post the picture of the motorcycle Joe and I are building till we finished it.

When something is useless, you can be sure it'll be advertised and sold as a "system". Something as basic as a pillow is now being sold as a sleep system. Have a gander at the "As seen onTV" crap. EZ moves system, painting system, adhesive system, disc repair system, automatic tweezer system....even the banjo minnow was sold as the 110 piece banjo fishing system

Awww man just after I ordered a banjo lure system to be shipped to you Roy.

This is the Canadian builders code for small crafts look at page 69 or 6.5 it has the regulation for all small crafts manufactured or custom built on battery ventilation.

Quoted "6.5 Battery Spaces

6.5.1 Spaces containing batteries shall provide for the overboard ventilation of hydrogen gas

released by the battery.

Information Note:

“Sealed”, “maintenance-free” batteries, or batteries with immobilized electrolyte (gel batteries) also need

to be vented outboard."

Art

If the batteries are their then it is vented. The hydrogen gas released from the batteries as they charge and discharge would build up and then you have the bomb.

I have had a blast with them on bass down here. I bought them for up North but what I found was the pike would grab the body of the lure and since the hook is out in front of the bait it was lots of bites few hook ups. I guess with a stinger hook it would catch them but I was on vacation and that would be like work.

Art

nice fish buddy thanks for the link it looks like a lure different enough for the fish to not know what it is yet.

Art

While it is hard on all who are left behind....rest easy he is in a better place.

Art

Thanks for the insight on how to hold Trout Chris. I have over the years seen you handle Walleye and Pike with the care and concern needed to return them back to the water as healthy as can be.

Art

been their done that didn't own a camera.

Smaller trout are more delicate fish. You have to keep them wet and your hands wet as well not to remove excess body slime or they may go into shock and die. You have to be very gentle with them when removing hooks. They do have teeth but the mouth is small so I doubt you'll cut yourself on a small trout. Here's a couple pics of a little cutie that took one of my flies.

Now a fish like that after you careful unhook it you get two crackers one for each side and you got a real good snack. (what did you expect from someone who fishes for Catfish Buddy)

Just so you know the plumbing on the kitchen sink is not legal.....just sayin.....

Cliff the horsepower to weight ratio is 1:7 roughly it is a blast to ride and with the high performance brakes and other additions it can be reeled in as fast as it accelerates. We spent a lot of time and money to bring this classic back to road life for all to see and enjoy. You are correct though you can be as safe as you can be but its the other person driving that can get you.

Heres a twist for you my mouthwash has 12% alcohol by volume written on it.

Getting served with a ticket for BWI is about blood alcohol content not about the % in the bottle of what you are drinking. The worst they could serve you with is open container on a nerbeer and that could be challenged in court. If the breathalizer is above the limit then the BWI becomes an issue. I don't drink often so waiting till I am home or in a place were their is no question if it is legal is easy for me.

Way to go Maureen glad you had a good time and was able to get a few new fisherman out on the water.

Art

Looks like a good healthy trip for you Dan when you can slow down enough to photograph rocks your reaching the point of true relaxation.

Art

Sorry to see the pup injured here's to a fast recovery.

Art

ya know if you buy your beer in the US you pay half the price and get half the alcohol....

Art

This is going to go bad with a post count of 2. You might want to be part of the community before you go for such a politically charged thread. I am going to save yaa this time.

Art

Nice lot of fish you got their T.J..

I think I saw that spinner at Canadian Tire.

The core is made with exacting tolerances that are closer than the other two mentioned. The bearings are of a higher quality meaning less friction and more consistence friction on the cast. It means I can cast further with my Core than my Curado both adjusted the same because of the quality of the Core. I personally find the quality/weight of the core worth buying and pairing it with a great rod. When you are fishing you will use the combo that is the most enjoyable to use so save till you can afford that so you don't end up with combos that while less expensive seem to not make it out of the garage to fish.
