Cass Lake may 4 - davetclown - 05-05-2007 [size 1]went back out today, another test run of my boat.. was lookin for eyes they were a no go so I caught 8 blue gills for my efforts.[cool] [/size] [size 1][/size] [size 1]my buddy Lorance caught these bruits[/size] [center][size 1][url "http://www.bigfishtackle.com/photos/showphoto.php/photo/6793/cat/500/ppuser/89"][/url][/center] this time my boat stayed dry [cool] got a half mile out and the motor vaper locked... 45 minutes before it would restart. after I got it started I let it idol for half hour before trying to run it again. whats funny is last time I took it out I had no problems with the motor. It seemed to run ok after that the rest of the day. I ran a half tank of gas though it. gave my self and my dog a nasty case of carbon monoxide poisening. I was running at almost full throtle down wind for about 10 minutes (5 miles) , "big mistake, the wind was keeping the exaust right there in the boat"...[pirate] we got a nasty headaches.... I think I am going to add a shot of carb cleaner in to the next batch of gas. I also think this batch was mixed to heavy because it started smoking (blue) no, I did not change the plug this year, I will pick new ones and a spares in the next couple weeks... I ran it more today than it has been run in the last two years.... that is the hardest thing on them motors is the sitting... I figure it started to burn off the carbon and varnish accumilation..
