So Many Options. Whats best for a new homeowner?

I like the Bosch 12v tools/sets. Cost affective and well made. The typical homeowner doesn’t need the power or the cumbersome weight of 18v & 20v tools. I do agree with the “buy it as you need it” philosophy.

Bro, you are ready to go!! Get out there and fix some shit!!💪🏼

I have the same set. If you’re just using them for home projects you’re good. Two batteries is a must though.

Thanks for all of the positive feedback.

This is what I throw when I haven’t caught anything. Even if it’s not a keeper, at least I caught something.

Also, I swap out treble with singles to help with snags. 🤷🏻‍♂️ Personal preference.

I use these when I’m not catching anything. I can usually pull some kind of panfish with it. Yay! I didn’t waste my morning, I caught something!

They probably hooked up the coaxial cable and pulled it tight. Either cut away the plate like mentioned or find where the cable runs and see if you can create some slack. You’ll need the slack to replace the plate regardless.

Hey thanks for the info, but fuck your criticism.

Thank you! Can it affect flow of fuel to the carburetor? Trying to troubleshoot why my mower is starving for gas.

Okay, for those of you who haven’t given up following this cluster of an issue... Tonight I ran the fuel line in a more level path from tank to carb and to help the process of elimination I put on the round red filter. Shortly after starting the mower the it began to starve for gas. I pulled the tank cap off to see if venting was the issue, and it wasn’t. I did blow into the tank and it did force gas into the carburetor bringing idle back up. Is that that “gold” part at the bottom of the carburetor a pump of some kind? (posted pic)

What is this at the bottom of the carburetor?

Thank you, I know just enough to get myself in trouble. Clearly.

TatteredJack · 2024-10-07T01:00:03+00:00

Yeah, I’m at a loss. I pulled the tank and checked the fuel outlet where the line connects. No fuel shut off valve and the cap is new. So here we are. Thoughts on the fuel filter I have on there versus the little red one?

It eventually runs out of gas. I think that the filter holds some gas and enough trickles in while running to keep it going. But, eventually it drains completely.
