Cruising Repairs

Doug Gould - Tuesday, January 26, 2010

Had a little carburetor trouble on my tender, and managed to break the tiny tab that holds the pin that holds the carburetor float that adjusts the fuel flow that makes the motor run that makes the boat go.... closest parts are back in Florida. So, I make due with what I got.

Here's the problem...

...and here's the solution...JB Weld. Motor is still running 2 weeks later.  Saying a prayer to the JB Weld gods.
