Greenworks..

As far as BD or any vendor goes, I don't have a problem with them coming along. Keep in mind this is a meet for all of us to gab etc and we are all using different vendors. Keep the brocures in the truck if you know what I mean.. available upon request.


Razor67..

Wow, if they would like to attend and bring something that would be great. I have a real good rapport with the local dealer in town here and they are all gung-ho for our events and may attend also. The same rules apply as BD though.

I want to keep this as a meet for all the guys. We haven't had alot of meets so I don't want to commercialize it. Okey doke???

This sounds like a good time.. I hope the weather holds up ..

(I know it sounds like a broken record but) Lacombe may have something if you come from the north.. I can get you a couple numbers as I have stayed in them all, years before I moved here.
That might Work J, send me the numbers. How far is Lacombe from Red Deer?

Thanks

Scotty

Body Mechanic, did you finally get your Max Flow kit?

Scotty

edit. I will be there.


Yeah, Thanks Scotty I did. Couple little problems though. I only have (3) 90 degree couplings and the instructions say there should be 4. Also I couldn't download all of the instruction like the last 2 pic's.

So, I have not installed it yet, I think it will take me a while (not the best mechanic going) things are pretty tight in the engine bay, I had a hell of a time changing the lift pump.

If you like I can see if there is anything available at the Black Knight inn or the Sandman. We have done somethings in the past with them. Not sure if I might be able to get any kind of deal or not. There is also the hotel out on gasoline alley that advertises $49/night. I'll see if I can get the name.

I tried to get Rod to fix the install instructions and get pix fixed etc.
You only need 3 90's and one straight and one barbed JIC fitting. The pic had too many 90's in it.
The last two pix of the install basically would show how the fuel line clamps onto the hard line and how the barbed fitting that is on the 3/8" line provided attached to the lift pump with one of the adapters.

PM me with any questions and I will look after it for you.

Sandman sounds nice but I think they were booked.
Black knight would work too. Online they all said booked but sometimes online is not accurate.
Thanks for the help.

Scotty

Duct tape is our friend. Red Green would be proud of the things I've fixed with Duct Tape
