Scott,

I hope you got it fixed. My tell tale is just like Joel's, nice & strong. Did you try clearing the line using compressed air and going backwards?

A decent test for the engine temp is to put your finger on the top of the head and see how long you can hold it there. You should be able to hold your finger there for few seconds (3-5 +/-). A shorter time and it's hot, longer & too cool.

Good luck

I would recommend a factory manual if you don't have one. I couldn't live without mine. It will guide you through the link & sync without a problem.

Leah is doing great. She's 2 now so I'm sure you know what that means. Can't wait until she's 3. :lol: We are still in the process for our second. It's taking a lot longer now than before. We have at least another year. Thanks for asking.
