[QUOTE="peebeeaitch, post: 65137, member: 8318"] [U]7 April 2013[/U] I was planning to start an all-out onslaught on getting the machine running today, perhaps with the help of some leave in the next week. However, yesterday we won a competition that is going to keep me busy on weekends until the end of April. Sweet/sour. Before I needed to go off to work on the competition machine, I managed to get this right: [IMG]http://bobcat.thesouthpole.co.za/BloodSweatAndTears/2013-04-07_01.jpg[/IMG] Notice the $45 new fuel tank. Then I was called away. [U]14 April 2013[/U] Just speaking to the Queen Bee (she who rules the hive) about how different it is now when preparing to go travelling - when I first went overseas I was packed 1 week in advance. A couple of airline's frequent flier Platinum cards later, I thought that perhaps I could at least see if the Force could be sent to the motors and if they would turn, all while having 2 hours free before going overseas for 2 weeks (overconfidence is the feeling just before catastrophic failure :) Anyhow, despite blowing in quite a bit of Quick-Start, presurinsing the lines and all sorts of other stuff, it did not start. But at least I have spark. So now I'm gone till the end of the month. Need to get a new line from the front pump to right motor, as it is weaping (at least the QuickStart helped identify this), and think of all of the ways to check the carb. I'm leaning to a stuck needle. I'll write more when there is more to report. [/QUOTE]
