sorry ill be in mexico, but bert may be up for meeting ya there, what takes you to somerville?

 

[stud_rudd]

I had a friend that moved from mississippi to Texas so i wanted to go see her but the boating is priority if you know what i mean.  :grin:

You are not taking your boat are you? You live in Alaska correct?

Be careful around Rocky Creek park. I stopped in there Wednesday to check out the water level and the rocks that barely stick out the water by the first boat ramp now look like a 15 ft. radius island. The lake is pretty low but you should be fine if your careful and hang out more in the deeper water around the dam. Have fun  :smile15:

I have been known to run Somerville from time to time. I only live about 15 minutes from the lake. I was out there last weekend. If the weather is good, I can meet ya out there. The place to go is Welch Park.

I will see what I can do for the 28th. That means I have to uncover it and clean it  :grin:

I wish I could get it wet by then but as it is I am going to be cutting it close for Colleto..  :smile21:

I am taking my boat. I am from alaska but am stationed in Mississippi in the Navy.

Yeah bring it down in April always nice to have another ford powered boat

 

[stud_rudd]

come to coleto in april :smile15: where are you at? pascagoula?

\

Im in gulfport. April sounds nice. Maybe I should just reschedule. But since im writing here i do have a question. I started up the boat today and it started making a hissing sound. i let it idle for a few and it went away. I didnt think much of it and it ran like a champ. when i took it oiut of the water and cleaned it a hose had come off. Ok now here is what im wondering. there is a hose that comes from my valve cover to a "t" then 2 hoses go from the "t" to the ass(s) of the carbs. Do you know what it is for?

 

[Devilman]

Vacuum secondary carbs?


Like they said, bring it to Colet in April if you're able, we'll get it figured out one way or another. :grin:

 

[Devilman]

Yeah there ya go, Randall got it, PCV valve...

 

[stud_rudd]

I talked to my grandpa... he is a big ford guy. He said it was for the vaccuum. As ya'll can tell i dont know a lot about engines. I pretty much know nothing. Ive admired hotboats for a while now and i finally saved enough money to buy one. I guess i will just learn as i go. Thanks guys  :grin:

Sounds to me like it a pcv valve, crank case evac.


Post a pic.


edit......Randal beat me to it.

 

[sweet-v]

I run PCV to both carbs because I think one carb would
run leaner than the other one  :grin:
