Sheeezus....do you guys have bugs that get in your fuel lines just too enjoy watching you get stuck in the paddock ?

I have a bug in my tractor, an electrical bug, can you use a camera to look for an electrical bug & what hole should it be put into ???

OP, why not treat this is a good excuse for buying a new tool: a digital inspection camera. :)

I have this one from HF that works very well. Would let you see under the floor around the holes: High Resolution Digital Inspection Camera with Recorder

Thanks for the suggestion, Threepoint. I have been wanting one of those for a while, so I will check it out it Princess Auto next week.

Princess Auto? Oh, man I just realized you're up North. I'll bet those are doughnut holes from Tim Hortons!

I think you also need a spectrometer to measure any atomic residue on the surface of the hole. And not a cheap HF version. :D

And a black suit...?

"Zed, we got a bug."

Round things in Canuckistan? There must be a hockey puck joke in here somewhere.

An excellent suggestion Threepoint.

The camera tip should be (check first) liquid 'proof' so that you can look into your fuel tank too... in case there's a biological growth or a bug blocking the fuel line.

All sorts of uses.
I wish that you had posted that about 2 months ago, BEFORE I figured out that my fuel outlet was plugged at the tank.

Sorry Mate. :sorry:

I did buy mine after posting here on TBN a few years ago about an intermittent engine shut-down fault that I was experiencing. The advice was to check my tank for a biological growth... which I knew that it couldn't possibly be!

Of course, that's exactly what it turned out to be.

Oh, and yes, I owned up to it on TBN.
