How would you suggest applying 4 psi?
No oil flowing into tank with loose cap.
So I pulled the new check valve to check the pressure on the old one. I noticed the new check valve to be full of oil/gas mix blocking air flow when blowing. I got the oil/gas out and it worked as...
I would not say the old was working as designed. I did reinstall and check with pressure tester where I got a wide range of vacuum/pressure swings in the readings. There is a possibility the new...
This is a brand new check valve. So no I did not try to blow through it. However the old one that came off can be blown through the threaded side easily and little air can be blown from the line...
Installed a new check valve today and still did not get any oil flow. So I decided to check the air side again. With the new check valve there was no air flow I could feel. Put a vacuum/pressure...
During my testing it made it out of the hose disconnected from the engine mounted tank. Reconnected, no oil into engine mounted tank. Disconnected hose again and did not get any oil. Seems there is...
Does not fill either way. With cap on or off. My assumption is the bilge area tank is not receiving or holding enough pressure to push oil to the engine tank.

As stated in title on engine oil reservoir not priming currently around 3/4 of a tank. Steps taken so-far to diagnose
1. air coming form check valve at bottom of engine - YES...

Hey guys, I’m getting some weird screen distortion on my Helix 10. This can be seen below in the attached photos. I was having power issues in the past so both the bow and console graphs are straight...
Not a bad idea. I have a b&w hitch I could always run it an inch higher. However that doesn’t really help when pushing the front of the boat into the corner of the garage, the skeg will also hit the...
This is the temporary solution. Doing this shaved about 1.5” from using the wheel and kept the mobility of using the dolly. This is just a prototype and will be made with 1/2 inch steel and higher...
Hey guys, im needing some suggestions. Its time to replace my trailer jack and im trying to prevent the situtaion I am in now. Currently, when I back the boat into the garage the trailer is right at...
Wow that looks really awesome.
I need a friend like that.
Thanks. I’m looking around. I could probably do it myself as we have a spray gun from way back when we repainted a car door. However my plate is piling up, about to diy the deck padding, carpet, and...
Thanks for the reply. Would you suggest looking for a boat specific shop or any auto body shop will do? I looked your shop up if I wasn’t over 5 hours away I would just bring it to you and call it a...
That’s kinda what I figured. Upon further investigation the paint only came off exactly where the decal was. So I am hoping the new decals are an exact match in terms of size of the originals and...
I have some dings and scratches in my cowling and now a giant spot missing paint on one side. I was in the process of removing the decals to replace them and well a large amount of paint came off on...
There really is no fix. Just keep engine level when you stop, pump bulb every time you go to take off, let it idle a little before shutting off and taking off, and just hope for the best. Its caused...
Ychang88. Seems as though you may be experience fuel vaporization. I experience it when it gets really hot outside. This issue could be that but it's acting different than I have experienced with the...

Just started happening the last few times I went out. Everything runs great and planes off fine most of the time. I would say about 35% of the time when trying to plane...
That is a good tool to find a shop. I ended up taking it to a shop up around Lanier that had very positive reviews.
