[QUOTE="richg99, post: 442590, member: 4376"] Pappy, Pappy, Pappy....NOT Johnny... Please accept my humblest apologies for mixing you two oracles up. I know Johnny is the PAINT guy, and Pappy is the ENGINE guy. My excuse is.....well, I don't have any excuse other than its been a strange and dis-oriented day or two. I woke up with one plan for the next three days, and by noon, that plan had dissolved and been changed markedly. We head back to Houston mid-week so that hasn't helped. Anyhow, the only chance that I had to run the engine was 15 minutes this afternoon, and that was to put her on the trailer (for more adventures tomorrow). I will take a good look at the fuel system, as you recommended, but it will probably be Sunday or Monday. Heck, if it starts tomorrow like it did today, I might be afraid to lift the cowling..... Thanks again for all of the help. Now, we can just wait until I get to Houston and start messing about with the 50 hp 2 cycle 2009 Mercury on the Texas boat!! [/QUOTE]
