    I gave him away with a caveat....... Whose dog is it?

    First, understand that a contract does not have to be in writing to be enforceable, unless it involves real property rights (real estate), which this one does not. So, if it is in fact a "contract," you most definately can prevail in a lawsuit. But, since it won't be a written "contract,"...

    why does my yamaha 30hp outboard keep cutting out?

    whoa hold on there! if your engine ingested sandy water, and you started and ran it without a complete tear-down and rebuild, then you have scored the cylinder walls that's not the worst of it. sorry to say, but you have just converted a fine example of japanese engineering into a very...

    If I plan on using my boat in the winter for fishing...?

    If it ever gets down to freezing where you live, you need to insulate the power head, it will have water in it so you have to keep it above freezing. Also change the lower unit oil before the first hard freeze, in case of water intrusion you don't want the gearcase cracked open. good fishing.

    Trying to fix a broken fishing pole?

    You asked "Should I confront him about how I feel?" The answer depends on whether you're a boy or a girl. If you're a boy: No. Get over it. Forget about it. It's nothing. If you're a girl: Yes. What he did was wrong, and if he ever wants to see you naked again, he will have to admit it...

    me and my friend want to go camping on our own?

    I'm not sure campgrounds even allow unaccompanied minors to stay overnight. Neither of you drive, right? Do you have a contingency plan in the event of a medical emergency? Pretty risky. Guess I wouldn't rule it out completely...you'd have to be exceptional 14 year-olds. Lack of cell phone...

    How do you figure out which fishing areas are polluted / which are safe for consumption?

    the department of health services in my state issues "consumption bans" and "advisories" applicable to specific bodies of water, which are posted on fish and game authority's website -- I bet yours does too. for example: " ... Lake Worth in Tarrant County Chemicals of Concern: Polychlorinated...

    how to make a cake while camping?

    can't bake a cake cause baking requires precise heat. cobbler is easy enough though, empty a can of peaches (apples, cherries whatever you like) into your dutch oven, cover with a yellow or white cake mix, cut a stick of butter up and spread it over the cake mix, settle it down into a big pile...

    how do you fish rubber worms?

    revo described the most common method. get some worm hooks, I recommend 3/0 or 4/0 offset-shank, I like gammakatsu, and slip sinkers, 1/2 oz. and 3/4 oz (for windy days). Thread a slipsinker on to the line then tie on the hook. put the point of the hook dead center right into the fat end of...

    Which camping gadgets have you tried and which are worth it and which ones are crap?

    The one camping gadget I wouldn't want to be without is that spill-proof coleman fuel spout. Those camp-stove toasters that stand the bread up over the burner -- those work great, too.

    40HP Yamaha outboard Motor Problem?

    Remove carb(s), disassemble, soak overnight in carb cleaner, blow out all passages with compressed air (or aerosol carb cleaner), reassemble with new carb kit(s), reinstall, link & sync, adjust mixture screw(s) (if equipped). It really is as easy as it sounds.

    Where can I purchase a Carb kit for the 2003 40Hp yamaha outboard motor?

    online vendors I've used and will use again (in order of personal preference): iboats.com ishopmarine.com crowleymarine.com marineengine.com I would highly recommend getting yourself a service manual. It'll save you litterally $thousands over a couple-three years. I don't know the '03 yammy...

    we have a 1993 DT115 suzuki outboard what would cause it to only pump fuel at...

    Why do you suspect the fuel pump? Is the fuel line not holding pressure? It operates on crankcase vacuum, so more RPMs means more pumping power. If the diaphram gets worn or perforated, it could get to where it needs the high RPMs to keep the carb bowls full. If the fuel line is holding...
