My Eskimo keeps killing when I start drilling holes, the thing was a gift from my wife a couple of years ago for X-mas. Any advice as far as setting the carb adjustments? Once it is warmed up it runs better. Just seems to kill when I first try to drill through the first inch or so of ice. Sluggish when it just breaks through the last portion of ice. I monkeyed around with the adjustments because I could not get it started when I first receieved it , (did not have it primed), so instead of waiting until it was primed I messed with the adjustments. I know,,,, stupid! but I was in a hurry to get out fishing. Anyone familar with these units. They are a Teucumseh engine, TC-II Piranha, by Eskimo. Any help for putzo here would be appreciated!
We're usually fully stocked but you caught me on a bad night!
Tuesday night is usually "board meeting" night if you know what I mean. Stop in and have a tasty beverage some Tuesday night after these holidays are over and things get back to normal.
Im sure I will be back soon my kids go through the pork burgers pretty quick. Suzy knows who I am she can help ya. Cant ever turn down a nice cold Busch Light.
Nice to finally meet you tonight. Make sure you tell me who you are again next time you come in. I will probably forget.
Let me know when you are dropping in again and I'll make sure we have more of those beverages around!
