Can anyone tell me the idle speed on a stock Homelite 25cc engine? I was saving mine for a big boat but the electric motor just went out on my pressure washer and I think I am gonna run the pump off this 25cc. Thanks in advance for your help! FF

I found the text of the first email. It was from [email protected] and said..."This is a good tool I expect you would like it."

I have gotten three emails lately with little or no text, mostly just a subject line. The first two I didn't recognize where they were from. The one said something about an engine being the right choice for me, I don't remember the second. I deleted them for fear of some type of virus. The...

Congrats! Looks like you two did your homework, practiced alot and got it right ;D I can't wait for my next one ;)

Did they get in touch with you? I sent them an email that you were lookin for them ;D

Re:K&B Throttle linkage question... Thanks for all your help, guys! I will be on the water soon thanks to you and Steve Speas of TwinCraft. I went over there this afternoon and he helped me fit the linkages and gave me some more tips. I'm really excited to get started in boats since I love my...

Picture is at http://www.bigdogengines.com/services.html . Now that is a cool set-up I would like to see a review on :o

I found this while searching for carbon fiber stuff. I knew I saw this in a post here :D http://rcboat.com/antaec.htm

I am just getting into boats but have had good results with cars doing this...I use a thin film of the "Artic Silver" heat sink grease(for computers) between the head and the sleeve/case of the engine. This helps transfer heat away from the cylinder and improves compression without insulating...

Thanks for the reply. I get it now...the low speed bleed allows enough air through for the engine to idle with the barrel closed, right? Cool idea!

I just bought a gold carb for my 3.5 K&B. I do not see an idle adjustment on it but there is a little hole on the same side the fuel inlet is on. Is it missing a screw? If not, what am I missing? Thanks! FF

How many do I need to ditch the Newbie status and become a full-fledged salt?

What about those "combs" you wrap the antenna wire around? How much does that affect range? I have seen boat guys using them.

Excellent post Hammer! Wish I were on your pond! ;D Thanks for sharing your thoughts! FF

Hey Smoke, How are things going with that TopSpeed? Let me know the good and bad of it.

I would not be able to enjoy this hobby if it were not for RTR...I do not have the patience to build a boat from scratch. I routinely tear my trucks apart for maintenance to the point of a total rebuild(My Nitro Mt was actually a kit) so mechanically I am fine. I even perform mild...

Re:K&B Throttle linkage question... Done! Thanks again! Gotta ask this...What were you doing registering for this forum on Christmas Eve? You should have been off playing with your toys! ;D

Any progress on this, Ryan??

Re:K&B Throttle linkage question... BTW, What is a llama????????

Re:K&B Throttle linkage question... Great pic, Rob! Thanks! Is that the stock clamp? Good carb info, Chunk. I have a comp radio so I should be able to compensate for the control arm difference. Would the arm from the black one be interchangeable with the Gold?
