2 tone z71

gotta spool my new Tekota /Curado/Calcutta I know I know its been a long winter lol,the 2 Muskie reels going with a braid ,the Curado is where I need help what pd test should I be running on this ,its gonna be my light Pike, Bass, walleye rod whats a good braid for this thing 15lbs???? what brand????

carb jets plugged or partially plugged (BAD) , creating a lean condition possibly,could be a flooding issue ,could be CDI unit could be a bad ground ,could be a simply adjustment ,should take her to a local OMC/BRP dealer for a check up before the season starts and they get too busy

Cliff thats awesome, was just curious is all,ive been rebuilding repairing engines since mid 90s,mainly Snowmobile,ATV,PWC and outboards,I made it in to a full time gig in 99-02 then walked away as it made me miserable towards a sport/hobby I love,I now just mess with my own and close friends stuff,and buy/repair/sell ,my dads been an outboard mechanic now pushing 20 yrs so ive learned lots from him as well,the small stuff weedwhackers chainsaws snowbowers I turn away or send them to a guy I know, the time you put in on them you never get back plus id rather be fishing lol ,thats awesome you do the favours for the OFNers thats stand up for sure

hmm unless the snowblower is SDI or Fuel injected which there not im confused at what "special" tools are required for this basic simple lil carb,we are talking snowblower here right

what kinda motor on a outboard you gotta split the cases anyhow and the crank bearings are individual except on smaller hp Yamahas there one piece like a snowmobile,ive rebuilt many and never had a problem ,if the crank is questionable have a machine shop look at it before you put it in back in,and im not a beliver in the new rings new pistons caused my bottom end to go thats ole wives tales

thats a beauty ,great all round fishing pleasure boat

pull the fuel hose off the carb ,drain fuel from tank,pull the float bowl off carb and dump it out look for junk in there,put it back on and fresh fuel in it

it will be fine for Emergencys at best ,not an everyday work/contractor type gennie she just wont hold up,for what your gonna do with it your fine

awesome job Gerritt gonna be nice,where did ya mount the plotter,Ice here on the bay is going fast thankfully its been a long winter

yes

HAHA dont worry they take my $$ as well

how about a teaser shot mine are still in boxs and the boats shrinkwrapped

ive never seen tan lots of white or black around thou,CTC for sure and theres a West Marine in Oakville right they may have tan,what are ya 5200 ing down thats awefull stuff

interesting read Gerritt thanks for posting,as I do all kinds of Motorsports both riding/sales/repairs in my spare time its a sad fact indeed ,now for my 8-5 paying job im also nervous being a carpenter as many of our bigger jobs are from US clients buying up lots and building or hugh renos,some of the local contractors are already seeing jobs getting put on hold due to the markets and economy,ahhh time will tell

yep FTA is only good when it works around Xmas it was down for weeks ,always have a backup FTA is a Hobby

awesome gifts congrats and happy birthday

FTA ive got Captive Works @ Coolsat damn Coolsat sucks ,CW rocks lil down time,Bells prices are going beyond reasonable for all there services

hahah at first I couldent even see the boat,my eyes where fixated elsewhere,judging by the pics thou that boats got a nice round bottom probable a very nice ride

HAHAHAH oh why bother everybodys being so darned good ,cant go wrong with tracker,there many running up here in the hard water,Gerrits right on the money as well Polar Kraft makes a nice boat ,just sold a deep wide Polar last spring and am starting to regret it

actually T bay is my favorite Kenora a close second ,I would make the 12 hr drive tommorow with all my crap if I could find a job that payed what im making here,Georgian Bay is nice and all but nothing compared to the wilderness and outdoor oppertunitys up there

Yes on the road there called Force accounts,its where the MTO choosen consultants take a step back and look at stuff they forgot and go dammmm ,althou one of my bosses from a few yrs back always told me (Bid low and @@@@ em with the extras)

Dan im assuming you work on the highway ??? Miller Northwest ,Pioneer,Bot ??? I spent many yrs up there on the roads spent a fall @ a summer in Kakebecca falls prolly dident spell that right lol ,few summers in Ignace,Red lake ,Ear falls, Dryden, Kenora,soo lookout soo narrows,Man I would move up there in a heartbeat ,oh great machine 4 reel sorry about the distraction

HEY Mike I got a HUGH Beckman Magnum XD Fin saver this week from Tight lines LOVE IT good god if I catch a Muskie that fills this bag damm

yeah i had it very bad for 8-9 days still 2 weeks later ive got lil energy ambition,my drive is gone I sleep alot,terribly lil bug wherever it came from

ahhhhh roller trailers picked up a customers boat upon his request from his yard,he loaded it originally from the water,got pulling it home went up a fair size hill close to my house ,got to the top of the hill looked in the mirror NO BOAT ,oh dammm I though trailer fell off ,nope strap broke ,damage was done so i shoved the trailer back under neath popped the bow up and winched it back on with the rest of the cable ,then had to go home and make the dreaded call,alls well thou that was a few yrs and a few hours of free labour and fiberglass materials
