    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

It wasn't broke, so I tried to fix it...

Now there's something I didn't think of. I did replace the fuel line with newer hose and LONGER because the other seemed like $hit. I'll trim it down a bit and see how that works. Might not, but I did put on a lengthy section of replacement hose. Thanks for the tip!
I did trim it back about 3 inches so that the fuel filter laid about level. Also, took the petcock apart and blew in it (not that it does much, but I had nothing better to do at work except try). Put it back together, and cranked again. No fuel flow. Put it on RESERVE, and the VUALA! Fuel flow! I got it running and trimmed down the idle screw to a reasonable level. Let it sit there for a few minutes, and did fine. I thought I'd try to turn it back to ON to see if it would work then. As soon as I did, right back to the no fuel flow. Problem: Need new fuel cock. Answer: Runs on RESERVE. It's staying on RESERVE until new petcock is in. THANKS AGAIN for all the help guys! I will continue to read these forums, as now I feel like buying a fixer upper for the wife to ride along with me. You guys ROCK!!
