    Default Astro Update


    Merc ran fair, been sitting up and needs to be run some but the main lake werent fit to go out on yesterday. What is the stuff you put in the gas to help clean the carbs????
    Other than the transducer failing the boat fished well, sits in the water alot better than the Glasstream did. With both Tam and I on the front deck the waves wouldnt try to come over the front and we got into some pretty goods waves a couple of times, the Glasstream would have sunk with 2 folks on the front deck so that part is much better.
    Hope to get it out this weekend and run it some more and see what else needs tweeking. Looking forward to alot of good days in this ride.

    You can get SeaFoam at WalMart....Its in the automotive section. They also have Deep Creep which is SeaFoam in a spray can that you can spray your carbs with.
    I have spent most my life fishing........the rest I wasted.

    I have never had to use any so had no idea, thanks guys. Hope I dont have to tear em down but if I do its not too bad. Didnt get to pull but maybe an hour and half but the meter on the 101 was still on 100 percent. Not sure what that worth tho, the one on my 55 PD would show 75% as soon as you ran it any.
    As far as the weight in the back that I got pounded about the boat handled real well, not gonna be a prob at all.

    I ran my 80lb at 1.7 for 8 straight hours, and at the ramp the meter read 50%. I wuz very impressed with those cart battery's.
