I’m glad you can take a joke, you’ll get along just fine around here.

Lol....There are benefits involved. She's a retired chef specializing in italian food and seafood (this is why she was picky with the smoke on the sausage). Her kids are absolute sweethearts. And she puts up with me. And yea..Im pretty darn ugly.

Plus...its her house. So she gets to bitch when I stink it up.

It also keeps her out of the garage...which is where I stash my new hunting gear. So...I am dumb, but I am not so dumb.

Well played

What could possibly be wrong?

Yea... That's not coming out. New carb ordered.

We’ll make a man out of you yet! Soak that sucker. You’ve got a new one coming now anyways, challenge yourself. Don’t let it beat you! You got this gurl!!!

Im afraid that jet is beyond saving. Ive got brass shavings coming out from where I busted the screwdriver slot. Might have to drill it out at this point.

Soak it and let it sit for a few hours.

A tip for future reference. Get a set of torch tip cleaners. They are nice for cleaning carb jets as well. Don't throw away old tooth brushes. Handy in these situations (and for cleaning guns). If no torch tip cleaners, even snipping off some wire bristles from a wire brush can work to clean the Jets if they are tiny.

And here I thought I was the only redneck to ever use that trick. Great minds think alike I suppose!

Well... Installed the new carb and spark plug today. Need to pick up some gas and a fuel filter before trying to start it.
