    Scale 50% Dalotel 165

    There have been reports of the Tygon "stiffening" after 6 months to a year. However everyone I know that has Tygon fuel line that gets hard, is using Ethanol fuel. We, ( my son, friends and myself) all use 91 Octane non ethanol premium. Fuel lines on my 260 are now well into their 4th season...

    Scale 50% Dalotel 165

    If it helps, we (my and I) run one tank on the four cylinder motors with two carbs. 5/16" Tygon from klunk to "T". 1/8" Tygon from "T" to each carb. Superb in fuel delivery and sets up like any normally plumbed twin or single. Not sure the 5/16" is necessary, but we've not had any problems.

    We just recently updated our weather station at the field. I believe it utilizes a WIFI connection. It is the "bomb". Especially since the previous system worked when "it" felt like it. If anyone is interested, I could find out what system Brian went with. I can post the info. here if it...

    Thing is, I worked for HP years ago when their stuff was good. I even built p/c's on the side. This new crap is just that. CRAP. What a nightmare. :nightmare: My WIN XP machine I built 10 years ago is "STILL" going strong. Just can't find a network adapter for it. So I guess I'll just rely on my...
