  1. If I was closer, I would do it for you, any mechanical friends, maybe. If that dealer told you $150 to fix that, he's bad. Those "O" rings don't cost more than a dollar or two.
  2. Might just have to order some batteries, mine are pretty much pooched too, thanks.
  3. Yes, the outside one can be taken off with a small nail, the inside one is a bit more difficult, use a small hook.
  4. Aha, newer motor, thinner oil, just like the cars. Mine must have the older 6 months/100 hr schedule, even though it says, 2 year 400 hr for the filter, I change it each time. No point in putting a dirty band aid on a new wound. Go get a fish or 3
  5. #1, Honda doesn't make oil, it's just re-branded for them, check your manual..the thing you read to learn all about your engine, mine(25) can use 10/30 or 10/40, you can get filters at CTC, about $5.00 instead of $15 at Honda. Whats the point of dumping new oil in a dirty filter. Some of the series use the same filter as the motorcycles.
  6. Just a small heads up if you're interested, there's a Mike Holmes charity ride next weekend in Borden, I'm not associated with it, just for your info.
  7. The only thing I would really have people pay attention to on the ice bungalows are that they are pretty much all heated, lit and stoves with propane. A couple years back we went with Rob and ended up getting pretty sick, 2am and everyone had major headaches and hurling in the snowbank..CO poisoning. (Nobody in our group was into the booze or anything like that), I'll never go back unless I bring a portable CO detector.
  8. Amen, finally.
  9. I just booked our annual trip with Idle Tyme at Lake Nippissing, good outfitter, meets all your requisits.
  10. Here's a direct link for the model 185, 195 and 2195. http://www.mustangsurvival.com/products/category.php?t=2
  11. Oh ya, been there a few times for stuff that's "obsolete" or if you're making your own dash or electrical system.
  12. It's toast, I got my last Gp27DC from Total battery for $78.
  13. Something to do with lack of drainage between the inner and outer fender, my neighbour had it done to hers.
  14. Inflatable boats are like a peenis, they all go soft after a while, especially after some of the beatings they take..the boat I mean.
  15. Well he got caught, hopefully they smack him with the book of fines.
  16. He sure has a catching smile there, sorry for your loss, may the fond memories carry you in the future.
  17. The Notty run isn't what it used to be either, yesterday saw 4 and today 3 going up the Pine.
  18. That seems to wrap that one up...
  19. Seems like the consensus is that the GB fish are a little larger this year although not as many caught, not like the last couple years of a head and tail and a rack of bones in between. Good catch.
  20. The only point that I would question is the 250' depth range, if you fish the deep water for salmon then it's no good.
  21. Now tell the truth, this is a well conceived tournament just so you can get into Hooters and get some wings...right. Nice fish.
  22. Like others said, possibly a double return, but then again it's a humminbuzzard. I would find some clear water with a hard bottom and give it a try, turn off the fish ID too. Fish finders don't know the difference between lobster poop and a fish, they mark a lot of bunk and show it as a fish. Friend of mine proved that with his cannonball..lead fish
  23. The older you get the more the gas version is appreciated. 4-6 inches of ice, okay, I'll still hand crank, beyond that fergedaboutdit, Jiffy 30 does the job. 20 years old and still running without any problems.
  24. Oh they're in the harbour already, some of the entries were caught from the "wall" and trolling inside the harbour.
  25. I think 19.25 was the winner, it was just mere ounces between the top 10. Someone got a 16+lb rainbow for the trout category, quite a nice fish.
