Help ! Does anyone know how to adjust the throttle cable in a manner that keeps it from coming out of the metal thing on the carburetor mine keeps coming loose on the car ride in and will not stay in the metal holder for lack of a better term I’ll include a picture there must be a way to tighten the cable thanks in advance
Hi guys(and maybe gals) just found this thread. I am currently in the market for an auger, just sold my Pro 4 thank god, and I'm currently torn between the Z51 and Rocket F1. Any info on these two to help me with the choice I'd appreciate. Thanks!
I was wondering how often, if at all, you guys open your transmission case and replace or add grease? What grease do you use, how difficult is it to do, and is there anything to be careful of? I don't know what made me start thinking about this and I don't have any issues with my auger so it's not something I'd do until the off season.
Hey Chris! Howz it goin? Other than tighten in a cross-hatch pattern, and don't over-tighten, not really. I forgot how much grease goes into the gearcase, have it somewhere around here. I know the 'mo tech manual does say in oz's, though....bet Eva could tell ya, too.
Guys my tank is leaking where the grommet line comes out tank to carb. Is there a diff tank mod or factory recall on this
although I don't own a eskimo ice auger, ive had a lot of gas ice augers and never had to grease the transmision gears ever.my oldest is a 1971 jiffy and its still rips ice.i think if the clutch slips you might have to get in there and clean grease off the clutch.
Best you start here last year. This could have all been prevented by reading back a few pages to where it says ONLY USE NON ETHANOL FUEL.Somewhere here there is mentioned the use of Amsoil Sabre 100:1 synthetic lubricant, mixed 80:1. No other additives are needed because fuel stabilizer is already in it, in the proper proportion. From what you say it's doing, you may need a carb overhaul. We could be more helpful if we knew you location. But, you've kept that secret by not completing you profile. You can search for good fuel by clicking this link https://www.pure-gas.org/ You can find parts at : https://www.geteskimo.com/Parts?category=1 (Phone # at contact us. Ask for Eva.
Was out with a friend today ice fishing. He bought the new Eskimo F1 Rocket. I was impressed how fast it drilled through 18 inches of ice. For the heck of it I brought my 3 year old Eskimo Mako 43cc auger to putz around and drill the odd hole. After watching me drill a couple of holes, my buddy challenged me to an auger race. I was shocked with the results. With the Mako 43cc , I drilled two holes to my friends one hole using the F1 rocket. Needless to say he wasn't to happy and was in disbelief.
There's no replacement for displacement. When I got ready to buy a new auger, I weighed (no pun intended) the benefits of lighter weight vs. more power and picked the Mako 43 over the F1. Tight lines,Bob
I just wish my eskimo blades would hold up better! They cut like a banshee for about 400-500 holes then fall flat on their faces.
