What I have found, Failure of the Anti-siphon valve Limits the flow of fuel. It typically does not fail to being open. If there is no AS valve, as in running off a test tank, fuel will not flow back...
When I worked at UPS, part-timer on the 70's, they kept asking me to become a driver. No way did I want those LONG days. Line-up at 7:30am and not return until after 8:00pm on typical days.
Been a Union member and when I left, I got my withdrawal card, just incase I ever had to go back.

Not sure on the fuel capacity on the AVX, but my 2019 RT198 P has a huge fuel tank and the 150XS is stingy on fuel. Don't know the MPG but I have made some very long runs in a given day, and never...
^^Agreed to give that a try.
Also, to the OP, did you replace the Anti-Siphon valve? I am NOT suggesting you by-pass it.
Is it a tube or a cable?
If it is a tube, it was used for a speedometer pickup.
If it is a cable, my guess would be an transducer cable they were too lazy to remove.
Couple of year ago, when I was at the range, there was a guy shooting a 50 cal. rifle. I asked how must per pop. "Anywhere from $5 to $7 per round." Then he asked me if I wanted to shoot it and my...
Looks like it was designed on a Etch-A-Sketch

Amen Brother!
You are reflecting the way I feel these days. I am lucky that where I fish, there is usually no others there. I go when the "Spirit Moves Me". I don't have to impress anyone. I do...
Agreed.
Perch fishing in Lake Michigan. As soon as you hook and start landing a Perch, BAM, there will be six boats on top of you and a whole flotilla coming.
Here in NC, do not post location of...
as with ANY center console, rods left in the "Rod holders" around the center console can be snagged on the back cast. Most of my fishing buddies have Center Console boats in both Fiberglass and...
Dewinterized Over a month ago. Went camping in Mt. Airy NC.
I had a G3 19' DLX. 115 Yamaha, Jack Plate, 80 lbs Riptide, and a Talon. That thing would get super skinny. I could go anywhere a flats boat would go. Very stable and lots of room. It was great for...
Was at the one in 2017 and made the one this year near Dayton. When it hits FULL totality, is is awesome. The animals start acting nervous and everything gets quiet. Unless you are in the Full...
I added the float switch to my boat and installed just like your diagram shows. The Switch Light will illuminate when the float switch is active.
**** Make sure your float switch is in the OFF...
Easy Pleasy. 4 screws to remove the windshield and about 8 screws to remove the dash panel.
I have added extra gauges, (Volt, Trim, Jack Plate), so I did not have room for a 12" screen.
I had to...
No Doubt, Bill is the Man.
Very sound advice.
OLD GUY here. Between CARRING the ball, all the TRAVELING, and the THREE POINT SHOT, it needs to go back to the Jerry West and Oscar Robertson times and see how well they would do!
Those are Fantastic
I had an Ulterra and it failed to deploy a couple of times. Had to make sure the Jack screw was clean and Lubed. As others have suggested, I would have a back up plan.
I too fish by myself 99% of...
Crappie Bob - Thank you!
I had my dream boat a few years ago, Ranger 518 Intracoastal w/ 200 Optimax until it was totaled by an inattentive diver, while I was trailing it.
Where I live, a lot depends on how you are going to supply the water. Here in Wilmington NC there is a $3000 charge to connect the system to the City water supply and then it needs to be installed...
