Ep:4 "The Beagle Barge Beagle Build" | Powering up the Beagle Barge!

Описание: Howdy fellow adventurers, I'm feeling blessed lately. A couple episodes back in this build series, you'll see that we picked up a pontoon boat in Kentucky (Winter 2020) for a decent price, to harvest a 2007 Honda 50 HP 4-stroke for the Beagle barge. What I didn't mention was, when I bought it...I backed the pontoon into the water and tried it out (after paying for it of course!) and it was having some issues. The water pump was shot, and one of the cylinders wasn't firing. I was hoping it was just a carb issue (most likely) I took a compression reading after getting home, and all the cylinders were more/less equal (a good sign) so I replaced the impeller and hoped for the best.

Then the snows hit...

As you see in this video, it was (probably) a carb issue (common on outboards that sit for a while) and she came back to life. She still isn't running "perfect" but running pretty darn good...and that's good enough for me. Usually internal combustion engines run better as they get used as intended--often and consistently.

Well...this outboard is going to get a lot of use between Superiorland and Florida this fall and winter.
