  1. You should see Roy in action standing in front of that motor with the wind blowing thru his hair and the top of the motor towering over his head. Man it is poetry in motion for sure. Art
  2. Pete check your spam filters to see if they are being filtered. I looked over your settings and they appear to be correct. If you are still having an issue please P.M. me and we will get a work ticket in to IPB. Thanks Art
  3. Console Art
  4. I remember one year Joe and I went hunting and we both shot deer. Well normally that isn't an issue but we were hunting in a VW Bug. We put both of them in the back seat with a 8 legs standing up. Talk about getting some funny looks when people looked into the windows. It wasn't that we were hidding the deer it is ther isn't any place to strap a deer on the round body. Art
  5. I use rodent plug in squeakers they seem to work for me. Art
  6. Thank you to all of my fellow Vets and the people who value the freedom they have won and protected your rights. Art
  7. I suspect that Lew has built his house out of Corn. You seem to have visitors of all walks of life I am sure to see so much wild life is a joy to be sure. Art
  8. I will say Mike does post a great report along with a few other greats. The text part is easier to copy and paste in a report and then add the code for the photos and pictures. Some of the code gets hung up in the security filter that protects the site from bad people. We wish it was different but to keep us up and running we make that small sacrifice. I will say though if you do have issues with the code filters and can email a moderator the script we will forward it to IPB and see if they can recommend a change or patch to make it easier in the future. Thanks Art
  9. You could lend them your birth certificate Roy if they don't mind carrying around a stone tablet.lol Art
  10. Might want to check into a disposable phone available here in the States and just leave a message on your phone with the temp number. More complicated would be to see if you can forward your phone to the new one. I usually leave a message on my phone saying I am unavailable and to email me or skye and use a tablet on WI FI to get messages. Art
  11. I am sure you will always be on my list of people I am glad I was fortunate enough to meet in life Cliff. Now as far as turbo charging you can always go with an electric fan turbo with a secondary fixed jet in the throat of the carb. Controlled with a vacuum switch and a solenoid. Good luck me friend Art.
  12. Welcome to the board and you cant go wrong with a trip out with MikeP. Art

    Glad you stopped in and welcome to the forum. Art
  14. that what I saw a flamingo head. I then saw how a tree grew inside of a tree and was absorbed making it a fascinating feat of nature. Art
  15. Lock down sequence initiated......we don't need insults and the whistling smiley face does NOT make it o.k. to talk smack to each other. Lets see if this can stay open for a little while longer now. Art
  16. The trend for the bigger boats for big water is outboards. While the motor and drive trains are more expensive the engineeringcosts ,fuel saved and space saved are making them very attractive. We have a police boat that has (4) 300HP on its back to cut off access to Washington D.C. from the river talk about something that is wicked fast. Art
  17. John Prine a talent and a legend. Art
  18. Yea we have the same here with snow shovels except we wait till it is snowing and then take our poor snow driving skills and run out to Home Depot. I am thinking we would be better off if we planned ahead and bought thermoses instead and stayed at home with a nice hot cup of coffee. Art
  19. congratulations this is the point where the old meets the new. lol Art
  20. Well done and a nice lot of fish you have under your belt. Thanks for sharing. Art
  21. This is the first time I have ever heard of a run on thermoses.lol Art
  22. I will confess to getting the backplow blade ready for a speedy hookup. Art
  23. Have all the snow and ice you want just pleasssseeeeeeee keep it up North. thank you Art
  24. If you get the wrong tipped gloves they can make your fingers colder. The tipped gloves that have to big of a seam at the top will slow the blood flow because they constrict when you have your fingers touching. The fleece or ragwool ones are the way to go. Art
  25. Dan the green crud closes down the passages in the jets so the engine runs lean. The 2 stroke engines need the mixture to be correct for the oiling of the pistons. The 4 strokes running lean will cause the temperature to go way up. Think of it as an oxy-acetylene torch the higher the o2 is within the range of combustion the bluer or hotter the gases are burning. The fuel as it atomizes in the top end not only burns and explodes it also has a cooling effect. You are correct the longer the gas is stored the more deterioration or chemical changes it goes thru.
