What's up today (bullchiting) thread.

Excellent, sounds like you will be right on track to install mine in a few weeks?

 

This is my last week at home, gotta help make mamma happy before I'm gone for 12 weeks. I'm starting a frame next monday.

 

I never started the sleds or the generator last night, I'm picking up some new plugs this afternoon so we'll crank them over tonight.

 

Neem oil works good for most bugs as well as some fungus.

 

I would love to see that thing fly...They do RC planes at a little airfield by my house, but I don't know if they have anything that extravagant, I may have to stop some day and check it out!

Not crazy for flying it, I've seen my buddy roll a $200,000+ drag car and build another to replace it! He calls it his hobby!!

 

Both my older boys have poison ivy bad. Poor kids.

 

I tried starting the sleds with the old plugs, nothing.....so I changed the plugs in both sleds, the wife's started but not mine, I'll get it started tomorrow night...hopefully.

What can I spray in the carbs to help it out, the sled is a two stroke.

 

I assume you verified that its actually getitng spark with the fresh plug so the ignition is ok.

Was it left with fuel in it or run dry? Any chance the carb is all gummed up? If yes you might have to take it apart and spray things out with carb cleaner to get it cleared.

A test to confirm is to give it a shot of starter fluid down the carb throat. If it fires on that then immediately dies its a fuel flow issue someplace.

 

Yes it's getting spark, I treated the fuel with the Stabil they recommended when we summarized the sleds, while running the sleds I shut off the gas so it would burn off what was in the bowl.

The carbs were cleaned last year, we'll see if it starts tomorrow.

I'm getting this for tomorrow, it has a lubricant in it.

Yes you do its way to early for that stuff. I dont want to see pumkin or any fall/winter beers until its cold outside. Its going to be a couple more months before that stuff comes in the house Im hanging on to my summer brews for a little longer (Im not ready for winter just yet)

 

Not ready, me neither, but be careful, if you take a nap this what you may see when you awake. Nights are cooler and the turning has begun. (Prior year pic)

 

The best thing for poison ivy or any other skin rash IMO is a plant called Jewel weed it's amazing boil the whole plant in a big pot of water for 6 to 8 hours.Then let cool drain off the juice and rub it on works for all kinds of rashes.I got into some poison ivy a couple of years ago and was told about this.We keep some frozen so we have it on hand.

I got a 6pk of pumpkin head the other day. The guy at the packy said it's been in stock for 2 weeks now. I put it in the beer fridge in the garage for now, gonna save it for a cool night by the firepit.

 

Normally we don't have a real bug problem but neem oil can present problems for my chickens and the boss feeds them things from the garden.

I put a fence up to help corral woody woodchuck. Between the fence, have no heart, boom stick and the two dogs that keep the horses company next door any woody that happens by has major problems. The deer seem to stay out of the garden during the summer, too much activity etc..

 

Today were going into town to get our meet our travel agent and finalize the details for our upcoming vacation Then meeting mom at a deli for mile high reubans

 

Just put some mix in the hole, a teaspoon should make it pop. I've read never use starting fluid on 2-stroke, so never tried to. Not sure what might happen.
