    Ariens.

    The "Off" switch is the fuel shut off.

    As I said, I got it all figured out from the manual.

    There should be a stop engine/engine off button as well.

    I skipped going out. But Joey's got wheels, So he hit a local pond for a bit. Wifey and I caught up on some stuff. Got some more yard tidbits done. I also did some tinkering on the boat. We've had to jump batteries around as the auxiliary gets drained with the electronics load. I added a motor only battery and will order the optional charge circuit from the motor to the auxiliary battery so all it takes is a fire up on the big mo to recharge when the aux batt gets low. Working from inside a stratos wasn't very well thought out. The bulk head door opens towards the interior and you have to work over it. This upgrade should avoid that all together.

    Didn't think we needed this option, But with 2 finders going and the live wells cycling is more of a load than I expected on the main battery. If ya didn't catch it it drew the battery down too low to even fire the big mo. Should not need to worry any longer about missing it. I will also install an alarm that will sound on the auxiliary if the volts get too low. As the dash mounted volt meter will now only monitor the main starting motor. I got a bud that makes a simple unit that should install in minutes to keep tabs on the auxiliary batt.

    I got no fishing in, But all the spring yard work is done. I only need to till the garden before the planting begins. We can concentrate on fishing hard for the next few weekends. I'll try to get the vehicle maint done mid week to avoid weekend interruptions!!

    Hope you had a good weekend too!!

    Some of the smaller units don't have throttle control. At least what I saw at the BBS didn't. The larger cub I was eyeing at TSC has throttle control and an off when you slide the control past low idle. There is a stop or ignition kill switch at the very end.

    Well, I'm starting to feel like SmokeyTheBear . This package was supposed to be "Next Day Air" from UPS (see the right side of the pic)......supposed to be here by the "end of the day" today......never knew overnight was 3 days. Must have been 4 small airplanes. :picard: And only 120 miles away.

    Android does indeed run on a desktop just not sure how the google or *zon app stores will do with it. Android runs linux as its kernel.

    I hate hearing about messes like this but I'm happy it just isn't me all the time. My last UPS came a day early from CA, replacement fan for the new system old one was making an unwanted noise.
