    Good spray on weed killers.

    Time to replace tires?

    I use ordinary car tires on my trailers , none of which carry more than 1000kg, As long as the weight rating is good . I like a radial around the 185-70-14 with not to thick a side wall (4 ply ) I just find them smoother on the road especially gravel . As said above they dont ever wear out...

    Birds in the boat . . .

    Well I dunno , I think that even if there is a plethora of natural nesting sites some of us humans have provided alternative possibilities that for some primal reason appeal to these interlopers 😁. Every year I get about 3 different Starlings (one after the other ) nesting in the exhaust...

    Sneezing from underneath flywheel

    That looks to me like its being blown rearward from the top of the air box. The 2 screws for the top carb appear to be missing from the air box ,Im wondering how long they are 🙂

    Jacking a pontoon onto logs/pvc to roll into lake

    Damn shame ,thats a nice looking boat (what sort of motor does it have ?) ,would do me 🙂. Unfortunately not that uncommon a sight, part of the learning curve , although in your case a surprise attack .

    Inconsistent performance 84' blackmax 150

    Im thinking that your not always running on all cylinders (can be hard to tell sometimes ). I would check the spark plugs (remove and short to block to see if they are all sparking ), and drain float bowls to check for water.
