Ya, 1/2 price off nothing in stock means they won't have a great loss.

Octane is used to prevent detonation in high compression motors(it causes it to burn slower), and, when used in lower compression motors does the same, over time, causes fouling and carbon build up. I've seen a few where the carbon build up on the piston crown started to ignite, glow like charcoal, then you have further problems. That's why you shouldn't run high octane where it's not needed. Get the newer ethanol formulated stabil instead.

NO, no, no, don't try to skip the premium octane part of my question, I saw what Big Cliff wrote, you come up with an answer why you should use premium octane gas in a low compression engine. I'm aware of what ethanol does and how to aleviate that problem.

Now could you tell us why anyone would want to use a high level octane in a relatively low compression engine, apart from the point that it may not have any ethanol in that grade fuel. What does octane do?

You're in Brooklyn...you don't have any snow there..just wait for sunday, it will all melt anyway.

Not a 2 joke engine.."This 205 cc 2 stage snow thrower is powered by an unreliable Briggs and Stratton engine, hahahaha." Like Rick said slowly turn the choke off before working it, takes a minute or so to warm up.

Okay, I've still got my old instructor card, but I guess the rest will have to carry a Louisville slugger with a small T handle on the end to make it look like a cane..

If you wear your camo gear, the wife can't give you the honey-do list when you're watching NASCAR.

Are you sure about that, just called a place that's selling them over the counter, I still have both of mine.

On my old boat I had the regular lightbulb version,red/green front and white glowstick on the back, enough to keep you legal and from getting run over by the bassboat nuts(not all) that just absolutely have to go 100mph in the dark.

So much for rootbeer or should that be rootbear.

I think it's just part of nature that women should be jumping guys all the time, never mind the bangy boards, they just get in the way.

Understood, ya,I guess someone has to draw the line somewhere.

Ya, excellent article that everyone should read & heed and maybe practice on a small inland lake. As for neutral bouyancy, don't know, but it would be sure nice to know if the good ship lollipop is going down or to just bob along at gunwale depth. I think if I was to leave a boat moored, I would have an auto float switch with a small bilge pump, just to prevent the hassle.

Amen.

Don't hold your breath on that one, if you go further into the website, you'll find out X border shipping will bite you big time, one fellow ended up paying around $400CDN, so no saving there.

Caveat emptor...buyer beware.. if you expect to have a somewhat detailed list of repairs, then I would think the buyer should pay and then keep the list unless the seller wants to pay for it. As is, where is, leaves the eyebrows in a raised state, unless you have the capability of wrenching yourself...

As much as you lol, there's a difference between complaining and asking for a possible change that may benefit both the GOSD and the amount of entrants that would buy tickets and fish. Your response adds absolutely no value. GO Fish.

jds63, check your PM's

I don't know if anyone has contacted them for this years prize packages, however the idea of weekly tickets has been mentioned numerous times with absolutely no interest from them. I wouldnt say I complained, just a reasonable suggestion that I'm sure would give some others the opportunity to enter the event, albeit they may/would have to settle for less of a prize package. Just an idea.

I can take some pics tonight and send them.

Yes, you can remove the bracket that holds the graph and mount it in the boat. There are store bought brackets available from Lowrance that fit the summer water skimmer transducer, you can either suction cup mount it or screw the bracket into the hull. Very easy. One more point, unless you have a mounting point to keep graph out of the burning sun and road dust, etc, I would mount it in something such as a dry box or lexan box. Even though they are waterproof to a degree, I don't take that chance. Less chance of it getting stolen too.

BTW it's not $75, it's a $100, they say it's "7 derbies, 7 weeks", it would be nice if they actually had the opportunity to buy weekly tickets for less, say around $20-25, but they'll have no part of it. Not everyone can afford that kind of money to get out just a couple times, some live a little further away, can't get the time off, etc. Sooo, I'll donate to the Tyler event, at least I know it's local to my area and going to a great cause and everyone has fun.

I have the slide in unit offset and bolted on the battery cover, (square 7x7 with the spring loaded front) to hold the rear seat, it allows the seat to tilt up to access the battery if necessary. I have another aluminum slider unit bolted to the front and center benches, about #10 self tapping screws, 14 years and still holding. The center and front seat are removeable by sliding the seat out sideways, also allows the seat to be adjusted about 8 inches either side before releasing. I have a 16' Starfish model, looks the same. Here's the parts, scroll down and click on the black one for the back: http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/template...&hasJS=true

I think it's a typo, if you go to the Lowrance marine site check both the x67 and the x67c you will see they both run 800W same as the Eagle 350C. Check the downloads and you will find they are pretty much the same unit,(except the 350c doesn't have the rotating rainbow flasher option) something like Chev/GM.
