    I have found in my new truck that I get better gas mileage when I fill up at the BP station as opposed to Kwik Trip. It at time can be as much as 5 miles per gallon. (2022 Ford Maverick with 4 cylinder turbo)

    One thing I have noticed as an appliance service technician is if the detergent has oxy in it or if you are using it separately this can cause an over suds error on some washers. Also if the water softener isn’t working properly that can cause issues.

    If you are getting spark It sounds like a fuel issue. I would be sure the fuel shut off valve is working properly. Maybe turn the gas off at the valve and loosen the carburetor bowl nut and see if you have fuel in the bowl. Once loose open valve to see if you get any overflow around top of bowl gasket.

    If you have spark when testing with a spark tester and still won’t fire the first thing I would do is replace the spark plug. It is possible the plug could be cracked or just bad.

    My father has always fished with what we call his broom stick (6ft StCroix). Back in 1972 he caught a 51 3/4 inch musky with it. 2 years ago we talked him into trying a longer rod he went out and purchased a 7ft 6inch StCroix and at 85 years old still enjoys throwing the big baits.

    I replaced a chain drive this last winter with a belt drive, no problems with the cold temps and I have a heavy wooden door. Only thing I noticed is it is a little slower opening than the chain drive was. No complaints

    This is something I came up with. Gives a couple of crates for locator and heater. Fits in the back of my Dodge Nitro. Rod case and hub style shack in the bottom of tub and auger sets on top . Pulls very easy.

    I have Ice35 and last year purchased Helix5 . Didn’t really notice any difference. Didn’t really use the Ice35 much after figuring out the Helix5. No regrets on the purchase of the Helix.

    Also a fun way to get them if you have time to kill, go out and stomp down a few trails, set back on the deck with favorite beverage, watch the trails with 25 cal pistol in hand and straddle tunnel and shoot them. Not always productive but does at times and if more than one of you , can have a contest.

    I work at a small family run appliance store here in Wisconsin, our sales rep for Whirlpool and also our rep from GE both state that the problem with freezers is they can’t get the compressors to manufacture . We have several on order and have been told end of August first part of September.

    Actually i drilled holes in gunwales and have PVC running under the lip of gunwales for extra support. Also did not glue any of the fittings together, I used pop rivets that way if changes need to be made I could drill out rivets to separate pipe.

    It’s not much but this is something I put together to haul my Hub style shack out when I use it. The Hub slides in under the auger. The basket I put locator in and the tub out front my bucket and heater fit in. Slides right into the back of my Dodge Nitro with one seat down leaving room for me and two passengers.

    I had one that did that when I first bought it. I tightened the drag and then loosened it back up some. Have had it for 2 tears now and no other problems. Hpoe that helps.

    Both pulleys have marks on them, also there where some marks on the engine I believe. I know I googled the repair manual for the Honda GX35 motor and it explained very well and also had pictures.

    I use plastics made by B-Y Baits, they can be ordered on line they have a web site. All of the popular colors and many designs. Price is fair also.

    I unfortunately don’t have the part number any more, I did keep the old belt for a little while but must have thrown it away. I know that all I did was google honda GX35 motor and was able to get a parts break down and ordered it that way. Sorry I don’t have the number.

    I have a Pro 4 lite that quit on me in the middle of drilling a hole. This happened a couple of years ago, took it to a local service shop and found out the timing belt slipped. They could not fix. I contacted Jiffy and was told no replacement parts for power head but the motor was the same as a Honda GX35. I ordered timing belt on line for less than 8 dollars, installed it myself and no runs great.
