why all this pump/regulator/muffler blocking stuff is necessary. I've
got 3 Mokis and none of them need special treatment. Bisson muffler,
muffler pressure only, (no check valve, nothing but fuel tubing) and a Mesjlik
18-10 prop, and the thing will go up our of sight. Ask John Ferrell; he
was standing alongside me when I said: "John, hold my beer and watch
this! (Well, actually, you can disregard the beer! That's just
Southern talk.<G>) One of my conversations with Garrard included a
mention of pumps, etc. and he stated to me that "they shouldn't be
needed." In my case, and experience with 3 different engines, (all of
which I still own) that has proven to be the case. One of the most
reliable brands I have ever owned. And they all pull like
tractors.<BR><BR>Bill Glaze<BR><BR>Bob Kane wrote:

<BLOCKQUOTE type="cite"><PRE wrap="">Hi John:
Have you ever tried starting the Moki with a light
backwards bump? The
engine likes to be wet to do this, but it usually
would start foward for me
when I did this. I just gave the spinner a brisk
twist to clockwise and
that would do it.

I have a MOKI 1.8 in a Midwest Cap (80" span, 14

I usually use a MAs 18-10 prop because it survives

<BLOCKQUOTE type="cite"><PRE wrap="">better than anything else and I seem to have a few
