  1. Is there a solution to removing the main jet out of the TYF carburetor? I rebuilt the carburetor but without removing the main jet and after assembling and installing the unit the BRAT still will not run. My fear is that I still have crud in that passage.
  2. It's a metric mile but I work at a ZF Marine transmission shop so that's a non issue. I can make it work but even the directions are incorrect lol
  3. I thought the same at first but there is nothing to hold the rounded ends in the spring perch. It could sit static but any strut extension would result in the strut falling apart. Another issue is that the perch will not even fit over the end of the strut! Ugh...
  4. Has anybody bought or have experience with the Gabriel Ultra struts with ride height adjustability? I just opened the box and they don't make any sense. The spring perch won't even fit over the strut itself and the adjusters are totally unlike the original struts. And of course no instructions.
  5. Still minor carb issues and currently running Seafoam through it. Any of you guys ditch your stock fuel tank for a fuel cell? My tank's suction and return lines are clogged after 20 plus years of sitting. I found a fuel cell that would fit in the bed and take up very little room.
  6. Huh. I did not know there was a filter under the banjo bolt. Thanks for the info!
  7. Thanks for the info. I took the carb off and took it to my shop I work at and flushed it with warm solvent and gave it a good shaking to get all the solvent out but once I reinstalled it I had the same issue. I'll tap it with a soft hammer then like you said I have nothing to loose by taking the top off.
  8. It does not appear to. The strange thing is that it ran about 8 months ago before I swapped in my Pick and Pull transmission. It has been warm and dry inside my garage but now the accelerator pump won't squirt.
  9. I installed a new fuel pump and replaced all the fuel lines and filters. I turn the key and the pump starts, filters fill up and I get fuel out of the return line but no fuel to the motor. I dump gas down the carb and it runs for a few moments or as long as I'm dumping gas in it. Any ideas?
