Taco'd "a person or people that show up with one lake lice and a family of 50 and cram 3 people at a time on it with no disregard to boating rules or ethics. Usualy crap in toilets and throw shit paper in trash cans. Hang out at the boat ramp like its a swimming hole. Have zero insurance on anything they own and dont give two shits less about your property."

Probably being generous at that!
 
Thanks Tracy! Wish the thing was running better for that, but oh well, it was Fun! and we tried.

Lol!  ;)  Flytime was with me when we did that!  ;D Thing wouldn't idle at all and stalled the first time I mashed it and was popping (leaning out??) quite a bit.  First video I've seen of it running out like that though! Pretty cool!  :thumbup:

I guess there's no being inconspicuous in that thing from even that far away! East Po Po target,

Maybe I shouldn't fix it? :sly:

Lol! no! I'd like to blame that, but it was perfect conditions! Engine temp hit 160 right at the dock and stayed there all day! (Although Skip noticed a LOT of header water coming out as I had to feather it at around 1200 rpm in the NWZ, wouldn't idle, that concerns me). >:D

Nope, Completely my fault!  :banghead: It was running mostly OK at Avi (Last time it was really out for more than an hour) I filled up a tank at the dock in Pirates Cove. Thing started this crap then. Burned up all that fuel on the way back to the AVI intentionally. Figured that was that and the couple times I had it out since I ran it on the other tank (AV gas). Also filled it up at Elsinore on pump 91 which didn't help I'm sure.  :screwy:

I'm quite sure I need to go through the carbs again (Or have it done, more correctly), probably some serious tuning on them. Nordie and Boost think I'm chasing my tail with those vac secy's, and need double pumps, but I think it'll be ok! lol.

Taking it out again tomorrow (A girl I met wants to join the Sea Level club!  >:D Dunno if she knows what exactly that IS, however.....), just drained the tanks today and filled it with av gas and sta bil, we'll see if that helps any.

She'll be ready next year! Unless I bring sumpin else! Still a solid 4000 rpm or so run in my book. Other than N8, Boost and Rivertard, I was the only other SCJB representative to make the attempt though I think!  :thumbup: I LOVE it!!!

Yeah, I forgot about Pat!

I dunno, Moo always holds (Or held, other issues pending) at 150-160, Even at the local Saguaro lake.

The Vac sec'y s are what I had at the time (new), and had been working fine.
