    Shift Interrupt Switch?

    New Delco ignition system, plug wires, batteries, lots of stuff. New carb on. Runs great, unless.... Not getting spark at the plug cap or the distributor. My buddy put his meter on the interrupter switch and got nothing 'on the back side' I had a thought and shifted in and out of gear a...

    fish finder / GPS / depth / Speed

    I have a Garmin 531S that of course is several years old now and with my recent battle with the floating 2 x 8 I lost a warrior; my transducer. New one will be ~$75 plus a day worth of work to unhook and install new. So if I'm going to spend a day of work should I get a newer toy? Anything...

    dually v single tongue wieght

    When I rebuilt the trailer a few years back I had a 1 tom Dodge single rear axle. Never felt funny towing. Now on my dually Ram i feel a bit 'off'. Would the feel be form a reduced downward force on the hitch due to the extra wheels? I can slip the bow stop forward about 4" really easily.

    ​Eclipse 2017

    Keep seeing ‘once in a lifetime’ event for this. Well, in 1979 I lived in Portland OR and saw a full eclipse so this is kinda cool to be able to do it again at 51 years old. Technically the last coast to coast eclipse was in 1918 so yeah once in a lifetime. I’m going to run...

    photobucket

    looks like they are holding me hostage. I've been hot linking for years. I guess they changed the TOS to extort money. Lots of chatter on the web about it. Sucks that all my pics from the last 10 years on all my boat forums will now be blocked. Any ideas on where to put pics now? We...

    what are you doing for the 4th?

    This is where my little sister lives and we fly out tomorrow. Why are Danes celebrating the Fourth of July? To celebrate American independence, thousands of Danes have gathered annually at a scenic national park on a slope in Jutland ? for more than 100 years. And it's not just expats who...

    plumbers

    not sure what they are called, but all of my sinks have the vent under the cabinet, nothing thru the roof. the toilet was not flushing and it was not from a turd.

    pool filters

    the electric one we have does a good job, but you gotta clean a dam filter each time. I want one that suck back to the main filter and I can just backwash that, so obviously would be one that worked on the suction. any tips / recommendations?

    meaningless contest

    Had some winds yesterday afternoon. My weather station clocked at 54 for a few minutes then steady 35-45 for about 10 minutes. The chairs you see on the pool cover used to be just to the right of where I and standing taking the pic. Now, the meaningless contest part. I am standing where the...
