maybe you messed up something on your gas tank trying to pull off the bed :dunno:   either way ive seen quite a few people get it in the sluice with a carb.  If you do it clean and right you wont be that angled anyways or just put on  a show and keep it too the floor the whole time :beerchug:

Robbs is just south of the Icehouse / Wentworth intersection and its 8 miles from Robbs to trailhead. Wentworth is looking better and it would be better for us to come in that way off 80 anyway so we can stop in with friendsin Penryn.  So lets try this again , can a small tractor (think Intl CXT) with a 35 ft enclosed trailer do Wentworth springs easily to Robbs?

i saw a f650 flat bed with a 30 ft trailer @ loon lake a few months ago, no problem at all

hey yotaboy79, have you looked at your motor mounts latley?  when i broke mine my engine ran like crap.

I won't be able to get off work early with my new job so i won't be up at Spider Lake till about 8 or 9 pm friday night.  still enough time to make a quick run through little sluice and party.  i am not sure who will be with me yet.  but anyone is welcome to join my caravan if you want to go in late.

motor mounts are fine but i think i found part of the problem my distributer cap was cracked and the float bowl of the carb had a bunch of peaces of what looked like gasket in it, its not 100% but its good enouph that im pritty confident it will do fine (nock on wood)

We will be with BD, Mini, Geno, Yotaboy and whoever else at the KOA. If we all decide as a group to go up thurs. to get a head start we'll think about doing that, but most likely we will be heading out way early Friday morning.
But we've got to get Joe from the airport, we'll have to get the Mammoth packed and other things done so we'll have to play that by ear.

We have too many people involved in the KOA caravan to plan on doing anything other the we already have planned unless we are all there and change our minds then. WE stick together... unlike some of us :eek:
