Jiffy Pro 4 tool kit part ?


olbaidhh

Recommended Posts

I picked up a Pro4 at the show opened it up found the parts tool kit, the DVD, the manual, oil, funnel, etc. I am going through the tool kit, I understand the plug wrench and the open end wrench, but what is the black elbow tube for?

Nothing on the DVD or in manual about it.

My only thought is it goes somewhere on the propane hose?

For what purpose?

Didn't see one at the show on any of the augers.

I have been calling Jiffy and I emailed but its been 3+ days and no response.. even had busy signal at times. They are oblivious-ly busy apparently so... anyone?

I actually just went out and looked at the box that mine came in and found that part. It would be something to add to the muffler if you wanted to deflect it down. The muffler comes straight out the back of the engine and this would give you the option of deflecting it down. Let me know if you have any other questions.

That is a great idea... now when I am tight up against my fish house walls it wont blast exhaust all over the walls. Not that the propane exhaust is that big of a deal... thats exactly why I bought it.

I used to have a coat that I would just leave outside the house I used to drill holes with and I would point the muffler at my old carhart and it would keep most of the fumes and smoke from the 2 cycle from getting on the walls, curtains etc. No more! ... looking forward to also not having to keep doors and windows open for a while to air it out. I can heat it up right away!

    • Truly sorry to hear that duffman! I know that feeling.  Keep the good memories  
    • Chamois passed away this weekend a couple days short of her 13th bday. What a great dog to hang out with here at home and on distant adventures. Gonna miss ya big time my little big girl.
    • Sounds pretty sweet, alright. I will check them out, thanks.
    • If you really want to treat your wife (and yourself) with a remote operated trolling motor, the Minn Kota Ulterra is about easy as it gets.  Auto stow and deploy is pretty awesome.  You just have to turn the motor on when you go out and that the last time you have to touch it.   24V 80lb.  60 inch shaft is probably the right length for your boat.  They ain’t cheap - about $3k - but neither one of you would have to leave your seat to use it all day.
    • Wanderer, thanks for your reply. I do intend for it to be 24 volt, with a thrust of 70-80. Spot lock is a must (my wife is looking forward to not being the anchor person any more).  With my old boat we did quite a lot of pulling shad raps and hot n tots, using the trolling motor. Unlikely that we will fish in whitecaps, did plenty of that when I was younger. I also need a wireless remote, not going back to a foot pedal. We do a fair amount of bobber fishing. I don't think I will bother with a depth finder on the trolling motor. I am leaning toward moving my Garmin depth finder from my old boat to the new one, just because I am so used to it and it works well for me. I am 70 years old and kinda set in my ways...
    • Dang, new content and now answers.   First, congrats on the new boat!   My recommendation is to get the most thrust you can in 24V, assuming a boat that size isn’t running 36V.  80 might be tops?  I’m partial to MinnKota.     How do you plan to use the trolling motor is an important question too.     All weather or just nice weather?   Casting a lot or bait dragging?   Bobber or panfish fishing?   Spot lock?  Networked with depth finders?  What brand of depth finders?
    • We have bought a new boat, which we will be picking up this spring. It is an Alumacraft Competitor 165 sport with a 90 horse Yamaha motor. I will be buying and installing a trolling motor,  wondering if I can get some recommendations on what pound thrust I will want for this boat?  Also, I will be selling my old boat, is there a good way to determine the value on an older boat ( mid-80's with a 75 horse 2-stroke  Mariner motor)  I will appreciate any help with these questions.
