just another note,ken you said the fuel pump could work harder due to gravity, that may be true-- i was reading on another forum and a mechanic had addressed a problem simalar to this and said on mercury motors to make sure the bulb is pointing upward to the motor he didn't know why but the guy said...

XMAN

thx for all of the responces guys--heres what i've done and what is happening--i found the idle bolt and upped the idle a bit and runs abit better, it was really chugging before--with cowling off no leaks are found anywhere, at tank, on motor or slip fittings--i usually drain all gas when i know i w...

i was reading the merc vs yammie thread--i went to bass boat central to read up on both and in the yamaha motor section they had a thread on ethanol breakdown in gas-the person writing it sounded like he worked at a shop--he posted pictures of gelled ethanol in bottles after a period of time, but di...

Hey andy, you say if you use a jet ski and hit a sand bar you can just push off and move on--you may want to watch it if you do--i was tubing saturday and hit a mud bar i thought i could tube over in 6 in of water, WRONG!! or i should say it wasnt easy because it was about 1 foot of soft mud--so her...

XMAN

when i'm tubing the BREAK you ought to see what my feet bump into--ash here's a hint, learn it on the low and listen to what every inch tells you----xman

XMAN

Nobody mentioned seagull island--if ya find that, its to late--its on the south side--ive seen cowlings come off when that bad boy gets hit--now ash when ya figure out the break, venture west to sherman island, that will really scare the heck out of you--it took me 3 yrs to learn it---xman
