I have a jiffy 3 hp stx 10" auger and it doesnt idle at all. when your cutting a hole it runs ok as long as you keep on the throttle, but if you let off and then try to pull on the throttle again it cuts out and dies unless you can prime it fast enough. also if you let off on the throttle it will not idle at all. I bought auger last winter and have had the problem since it was new. was wondering if anyone else is having problems?? also i heard it might have something to do with the idle and high speed screw on carb, but i have no idea which one to turn or how much to adjust it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe. I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho. Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
The water looked and smelled disgusting with hundreds of thousands of birds sh*tting in there. About as gross as the Salton Sea. When I duck hunted there I didn't even want to touch the water.
It's kinda gross with the algae in the summer but I got in it anyway. Wanted to see the increased bouyancy at work. You can kinda tuck yourself into a ball and you'll just float with your head above water. When dry off you look diamond encrusted with the salt.
We went to the flats too. I dipped a tire on the rental car onto it just to say I’ve been there,but it was still pretty soft from winter melt. After seeing some moron in a BMW suv get dragged out of the muck I had no intention of repeating his stupidity.
