Good morning!!!!

Kyle,

Thanks.

I did a complete strip down of the carb this afternoon ... including the needle, H and L adjustment screws, throttle and choke plates and their rods. Basically anything that I could take off, I took off.

Carb is currently over @ PineRidge's, sitting in his can of Berryman carb cleaner. Will pick it up tomorrow afternoon.

You might be able to clean the carburetor, if you can get the smallest orifices cleaned. I "pluck" a thin wire from my fine wire brush with my needle nose and use it to poke into the idle circuit orifices. Also use carb cleaner with brushes and compressed air. WEAR SAFETY GLASSES to keep solvent from getting into your eyes.

Sounds good - will do :thumbsup:

You can also premix with 100LL Avgas, but you might have to retune the little screws a bit on the carburetor. It might cut the power back just a hair, but you won't have any stale gas problems due to ethanol.

Will keep that in mind - the airport is about 10 or 15 minutes from the house and there are several FBO's there.

I'll probably check with the local marinas first, one of which is owned by a friend, for E0 ... they're even closer (5 to 10 minutes away)

Thanks.

59F and partly cloudy @ 22:45 ...

New cell installed in waterbed ... woman is very happy.

Got the first of three cabinets in the laundry room cleaned out, and everything (chemicals and cleaners) that should be in there put back in, in an orderly manner ... might actually be able to find something now. Next two will be pretty ... not all that much in them.

Noticed that someone dropped off some huge logs up by the shed ... need to get started splitting ... supposed to be nice tomorrow, so I might have to get cracking on that ... to make room for more

In the middle of prepping the soles to reattach them to my Muck Chore boots ... have some PlioBond and Shoe Goo ... might try a combo with the Shoe Goo in the middle and the PlioBond around the edges.

43 right now...high of 72 and clear today...maybe I can do some mowing after work...

oh what a difference a week has made...
pouring out, up to two inches of rain predicted, after almost two inches yesterday.
The ground sucked up yesterday's rain quickly, will be interesting to see how it does today.
I moved my turtles back from the front ditch after mowing yesterday but now I wonder if i moved them back far enough.
I may be extricating turtles from the culvert today if they decided to float away.
forget the house, forget the barn, save the turtles!

sure not going to be much going on outside today. And i think I can put all my hoses and sprinklers away for awhile.
Looks like Texas has finally let go of the water and sent it Eastward

Drinking first cup of coffee. 46° clear skies this morning. Heading to 75° with lots of sunshine today. Starting on a siding project in our back porch. Should keep me busy for a few days.
Good Morning All

57 now high of 67 later in a cool wedge I suspect rain off and on today. Got another good dose yesterday evening and as a matter of fact was pouring last night no storms just heavy rain and lots of it. Some areas flooded but we are lucky not here. Good soaking rain now and we needed it.

A good day to catch my breath and catch up on paperwork

59 this AM. Found a city job for a few hours so away I went. Guess I need to start looking for full-time work, sigh....

Rain off and on for the next few. Hit and miss in my immediate area. It has cooled off, which is good since the A/C will not get replaced until Thursday.

Grass is perking up, and greening back up. Found two turtles in my koi-less pond last night. Good for them. One is a returnee from last year, new guy was a refugee from the swimming pool a few weeks back. Hmm....better in the pond than the pool.

Have a great day all!
