Next year, I plan to have a special DE-CLOG kit on the beach ready to roll...

1. Can of Air
2. Screw Drivers
3. Long piece of 3/8" hose for blowing (Darin)
4. 10 guage solid wire for clearing clogs

The beach hasn't been that bad in years.... damn wind storm.


can of air probly wont be strong enough...go to wally world and get a 30 or 50 lb aux air tank

way more PSI and multi-use

the wire is a good idea and I always keep a peice of spare water line in case you need to blow back thru the pump on the beach..

Im not posative but I think a garden sprayer will work perfect / it will carry 3 gallons of water to use as a flush and you can pump it up as many times as you need to and refill

Eire carnage , did not overheat , engine would not Idle , had to ride just above Idle through the breakwater to get back , Blasters are a MF to mount in rough water with no power LOL ! strainers worked great by stopping some big weird shaped shells that could easily lodge in tubes the engine NEVER stoped flowing water with the strainers . Pro-x pistons ,possible ring snag ? I didn't want Darin and Will to feel like they were the only ones that lake Eire was picking on !
hey frank what do you think caused this , how many hours on that motor it was sure ripping saturday , that is the best blaster i have ever ridden, your attention to detail is awesome, are you sure it did not overheat

Just got my strainers and new o-rings from mcmaster.

I got the 40x36 mesh screen, the 50x50 would work well also.

you guys could get an old school water type fire extinguisher that has the fitting to pressurze it with the air compressor... then if someone had an air compressor to hook up off the car youd be golden.

we use the fire extinguisher filled with non-tox around here to winterize skiis and i have even seen a guy at the ramp flushing out with a fire extinguisher he brought.

dunno how the ride was setup if you could pull this off but just making suggestions.

Back in the saddle today ,got the blue B-1 back together , took both b-1's out for some flatwater practice for my daughter and a shakedown ride for my new topend on the blue bomber . Engine screams just like it should ,gonna go thru the carbs before the DAZE just in case , got a 11-17 HOOKER comein tommorow to take to the WAVEDAZE .. so im set for the surf ! guess ill be using some higher octane fuel from now on to avoid any more carnage like in the pics above in the future . and should make a practice run at the FSF , see yall there ! PS: the pv800 has never broke down yet ! Im pumped for WAVEDAZE !!
