Minnow traps and wet, dirty clothes after having set and checked minnow traps (using minnow traps to trap for aquatic salamanders. Towed the M416 around for 4 days doing this.
It appears draining the fuel bowls and flushing may have done the trick. They are going to press on….
Well other than the I think @gonzopancho batteries in the PowerStroke just died…click
I'm assuming OEM carb. The pair of drain plugs are below the sight window and are 14 mm heads. Access is easy. There is a copper washer with each one. Don't lose those. You shouldn't have leakage after pulling these out and reinstalling...
And this right here ^^^^ is what I don't understand. Your lack of a logical and systematic approach makes me bang my head on the desk.

8L of water test ride. 2L on each fork, 3L bladder in frame bag, and 1L on down tube. Adds about an extra 20lbs.
Quick 10 miler up the mountain and back. Success. Everything stayed on and attached.
Now to take everything off for...
The 60 is preparing for its next phase in life. I've always tried to be patient and find the specific parts that let me build this truck exactly like I want it to be.
It's a tool before a classic truck, and I won't change that.
So, the 2F is...
First overnight route will be Rhyolite…. A desolate ghost town in BFE…. The roads are rough and tough…. Washboards for miles…
Our next route will be in Saline Valley (NW of DV) and be a 4-day route that requires caching water. It’s...
