  1. Hi Betty glad to meet you at lak air and welcome to the board. Hopefully you won't view this as being as big a mistake as marrying Brian. Art
  2. Since it looks like the original question was answered and we are not heading in a good direction......Say good night Gracie Art
  3. I have to agree with Cliff the pricing you have set seems really high but it seems in Canada prices are higher their for boating items. Whether you sell now or when the price is higher is irrelevant since you are also purchasing a used unit yourself. If you purchase NEW this fall and sell in the spring your bang for the buck will be the greatest. Art
  4. Chris by cleaning the ground wire on the tank you issue should be fixed if not then do the other tests and call me I will help you solve the problem Art
  5. the correct reading on a linear tank is only while sitting still. The tanks in the Ranger are rectangular but are from right to left not front to back. They read left and right turns as fuller or emptier. Art
  6. Before you start make sure that you have a viable motor that can be repaired within your budget before you start on the boat.Price out the controls and material needed to get the boat you want before spending it. Their is nothing worse than spending your budget on something and at the end finding out it is going to cost a big chunk more. Iboats has alot of good info for you to use as you take on the project.

  7. The deerfly bite makes sense it is the thinnest place for fur and there is no meat below. I am sorry moosey had issues I am looking forward to her bringing her owners back next year. Art
  8. You can account for any bald spots on Moosey from excess petting from me ... no food was fed to the little girl though. Art
  9. Yaa but you missed the 2 bottles of "Canadian Killer" Joe and I brought up. Art
  10. Pull the float and rehook it up outside of the tank.Measure the resistance on the unit at full tank and empty tank and compare the readings with the factory manual readings. Then short out the wire to ground and see if the gauge goes to full. If it all checks out it seems you might have the float cockeyed in the tank make sure it is facing correctly and the linkage is not fouling with the side of the tank. Remove the grounded point or wire and clean with a metal brush. Reinstall and coat with battery corrosion sealer from the parts store. Art
  11. We are a little shorted handed for the next few days Thanks all for the reports we will do the best we can. With the help of everyone we will try to keep this under control. Art
  12. As long as the two Chris's don't play outboard motor and tiller in the cabin things will be o.k. Art
  13. Deep fried they are delicious. Art
  14. Dude you should like check out being one of those guy's that work on air conditioning and stuff you would like be killer at it. I had forgotten that propane was a refrigerant I guess I have been out of the HVAC school to long. Art
  15. So now can we name camp Jiggity Jiggity Ummpa Loompa Ville??? Art
  16. Nice trip glad to see a PB too. Art
  17. Do we need to change your name to Carpfish 136 or will you get back to fishing for the worlds greatest fish the Catfish. Looks like it was a good time had and as Roy said it most likely was Suckers. Art
  18. I would love a day of fishin with Roy but their seem to be a theme here and Roy is a bad luck fishing gnome. Here is hoping for a little bad luck some day. Art
  19. You should be compliant with just the gear needed to fish in the place were your boat is registered. While in Canada my U.S. life jackets are not certified by Canada's Cost Guard ratings but I do not get a ticket. The throw cushion is one of the cushions that you sit on but can be thrown out the boat to someone in the water. Art
  20. A great search bait is the white Bandit Shallow diving crankbait. You can cover a lot of water quickly and they seem to get some of the best reaction bites. Art
  21. Just had to do this one on a bolt. Soak it with a light lube and then a 1/4 extention chucked up in a hammer drill. Run it in reverse for the vibration factor for a few minutes a few times. Wash off with brake cleaner to remove the oil then try to see if you can stick weld an piece of square stock on the top of the plug base. Vacuum any spatter and re apply the oil then put the square stock into a socket and use the hammer/hand impact extractor. Don't mess with it till Saturday so it has time to soak. Art
  22. You got to ask them in that special way to get the ride. Art
  23. Good job on the MNR they seem to have been at the right place at the right time that day. Art
  24. Ya I get the same thing when I go out in public.... o.k. maybe not the same thing but they do call the police to give me a ride home..... Art
  25. Thanks Brandon I will put it on my wish list. Art
