Do you have any idea why my computer will randomly reload a page ALOT of times and then sometimes it will abort the operation. It is usually when a pic has been posted. I'm sure its a setting because it only does it on a shared type of network. If I'm at home on my private network it works fine. If I'm at work it does this and right now I'm on jury duty at the court house and it is doing it here too. Any ideas? Thanks.

What type of boat did you get? Mine is definitely down. Low compression and oil in the cylinders FTL

Interested in selling the short block? All I need is the block and rotating assembly. You can keep the rest and sell it all. If so, PM me a price. Thanks.

I say if you are feelin good and relaxed, you might as well stay and enjoy it....

Do you have any pics of the helmet? How much are you looking to get? Thanks.

Would you make me a deal on just the guitars, then sell the game seperate? Or, even if you would just sell me the wireless one. If not I will take the package anyway. Let me know when you want to meet up. I'm around Sawmill Rd. Thanks.

Damn, sounds like it will be a good deal in the long run.

Man, that's a shitty situation. Do you have the option of moving back in it and out of the house you really want? If you give up the empty and let it go through foreclosure, it will be VERY hard or next to impossible (at least for a while) to get a loan for the house you are in and want to buy. Either way, best of luck to you.

Man, that's really nice looking. That price was awesome too. Congrats!

Not going to make it this week. I still need to run my compression check and figure out why I'm not on all 8 cylinders. Hopefully just a tune up.....

I had a tiller with this problem. I had Hoblick fix it! lol The problem was it had sat so long the gas had gel'd. He took apart the bowl and replaced the rotten gaskets and such and it would run fine for a while. Then what kept happening was a little bit of the crap that was left over in there kept getting stuck in the jet and from what he said the jets are so tiny it doesn't take much. Between this happening and with him taking it apart and re-cleaning it so many times it eventually all cleared out and started working fine. That was my problem and it sounds just like yours.

Awesome, Congrats! Do you have any pics? Since they are rebuilding the engine, does it have a warranty? You're not pulling it with the SRT are you?

Ok Ok. Here they are. I didn't get any of the bow because I didn't feel like taking the cover off. Its the same basic idea though, just round. http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w211/Matt86K5/Formula%20Boat/DSCN1564.jpg http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w211/Matt86K5/Formula%20Boat/DSCN1565.jpg http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w211/Matt86K5/Formula%20Boat/DSCN1567.jpg I had the side panels done with the boat manufacturer, Formula, and its a special edition anniversary model named the Spider. I think it looks kinda cool. They are raised up through the vinyl. Since its a Spider, that's what inspired the black widow spider embroidered into it. That also determined the name of the boat, "WIDOW MAKER." http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w211/Matt86K5/Formula%20Boat/DSCN1569.jpg I still have a few more new gauges that need to go in and the square cut out is for the trim tabs that I bought. http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w211/Matt86K5/Formula%20Boat/DSCN1566.jpg http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w211/Matt86K5/Formula%20Boat/DSCN1568.jpg http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w211/Matt86K5/Formula%20Boat/DSCN1526.jpg Here's a fresh one from today. I just waxed it again so I got some more wax on the bottom paint. http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w211/Matt86K5/Formula%20Boat/DSCN1573.jpg

At the time I had it painted, I knew I did not want to paint the bottom black like the rest of the boat. I beach the boat alot and knew the black would look horrible after one beaching. I didn't have them take it off because it is white underneath and I'm not sure how good that would look with a black boat. So I told them to leave it alone. This is exactly what is on it. Its called anti-fouling paint. I just looks so bad because of all the wet sanding and buffing they did when it was painted. Its MUCH cleaner now that I have had it in the water. Like I said above, its much better looking now. It still has a dull flat look to it, but it protects the bottom of the boat. When its in the water, 95% is underwater, so you cant see it anyway. I also have more that I can put on it. I just havent decided what I want to do with it yet. Id love to take it off, but I would not like the white belly. Plus, its a bitch to put on a coat of the bottom paint without being able to lift the boat from the trailer.

Congrats! Unfortunately, I don't know much about the skis. The only thing I can recommend and stress is water test, water test, water test. These things can behave completely different on the trailer versus when you get some pressure against them. If they wont let you test it, keep looking.

Here's a few pics of my Formula. Shes been completely restored and refitted. I'm still having some sort of engine issue though. From what the experts say I'm not running on all 8 cylinders. I'm compression checking it this weekend then if all goes well diagnosing/having diagnosed from there. Best case would be new plugs/wires/cap etc. Worst case I have a line on another stroker I can throw in it. Anyone interested in a thread in the project section showing the restoration? Also, yes I know the bottom paint needs to go or be touched up. Most of it is wax and buffing compound. Luckily, you can't see it in the water. The trailer restoration (besides all the new LED's already on it) will be this fall/winter. http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w211/Matt86K5/Formula%20Boat/DSCN1523.jpg http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w211/Matt86K5/Formula%20Boat/DSCN1522.jpg http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w211/Matt86K5/Formula%20Boat/DSCN1524.jpg Unfortunately, she does not come close to fitting in there. http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w211/Matt86K5/Formula%20Boat/DSCN1529.jpg http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w211/Matt86K5/Formula%20Boat/DSCN1525.jpg http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w211/Matt86K5/Formula%20Boat/DSCN1526.jpg http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w211/Matt86K5/Formula%20Boat/Interior/CPTNSeat.jpg http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w211/Matt86K5/Formula%20Boat/Interior/Sundeck.jpg http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w211/Matt86K5/Formula%20Boat/Engine%20Build/Pan1.jpg http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w211/Matt86K5/Formula%20Boat/Engine%20Build/100_0313.jpg

Gotcha. Do you have something specific you are trying for or just a general how much can I spend kinda thing? On a side note: I have a few SRT parts left over from back in the day. I have a Mopar BOV (spacer - it sucked) and a "Stage ?" badge. Interested in either?

What did you get? Or by this do you mean you waxed the "ol' torpedo"

WOW Andy, I am sooo sorry to hear this. You are correct about the finding it early and so wise in going with the mastectomy. I don't know if you remember from the times you have been over, but this is what my wife specializes in. If you need anything or have any questions, PLEASE, let me know. Or if Yasmin wants to talk to someone, I'm sure my wife would love to talk to her. I'm so glad they found it early. Everyone, just like Andy said, if you ever feel even the slightest difference...have it checked out.

Another one for you: http://columbus.craigslist.org/boa/1216082339.html

I like this. Plus, make him do some work to pay for the cost of said safe.

Good One - http://columbus.craigslist.org/boa/1207580052.html Others: http://columbus.craigslist.org/boa/1209791139.html http://columbus.craigslist.org/boa/1205890598.html

http://columbus.craigslist.org/boa/1211735970.html You should get this thing. I don't know anything about it, but it looks like it could be fun. Go out by yourself or take some people with you.

I can't believe I missed this. I will post up when I get home.
