Gold Mountain, Big Bear, Ca. Black Diamond Badge of Honor trail in Vinatge Jeeps. Flat Fender.
We do a 120 mile round trip to the highest peak in Southern California to one of the hardest trails in Big bear, California called Gold Mountain. Gold Mountain is a 7/10 and is a Black diamond trail and a Badge of Honor trail. This 120 mile run will give me a good test for my new gas tank and Sniper 2 set up... and will be tons of fun.

I had many problems at the Colorado Fall Color Tours 2024 with fuel delivery and aeration problems related to my efi Sniper 2.

    If you pay the daily license fee (I think you said 12 bucks or so), are you allowed to fish off the jetty or the beaches..? in some places surf fishing can be excellent. 250 usd per day seems pricy if you want to do some serious fishing near shore, I guess 4 hrs. is the average fishing trip for someone who is not into fishing as much as some of us..

      Old school is defintely better, no mystery off-road modes, no random beeping sounds, and no elecronic bandaids to cover up poor suspension performance.

      @@maxxbear5014 yeah - just need to dial it in. I was getting aeration from the stock gas tank-air and vapor and vapor lock. i need to either buy a fuel cell with inline fuel pump or retrofit the stock tank with in tank pump.. (hint for upcoming video..lol). 😁

    • @coastalcowboyentertainment6284
      @coastalcowboyentertainment6284 3 місяці тому

      Don’t know but Maybe this could help… I’m unsure if you have your EFI set up “return style” or ‘returnless” but one of the main ways to prevent vapor lock is to run return style so unused fuel is constantly returned to the tank cooling the fuel off as opposed to sitting in the lines above the engine where it continues to heat up… another thought is because the air is much thinner may consider adjusting fuel on your handheld at higher altitude depending on what your AFR (air fuel ratio) gauge is reading at that particular elevation… just food for though I have 2 EFI systems and don’t think I’ll ever go back to a carb. Too enjoyable when they’re dialed in. Blessing GT

      @ - hi. yes. it is return style. but i am running the stock gas tank. I have since rebuilt the tank so that i have some extra baffles and an in tank fuel pump to decrease the vaporlock and aeration… hopefully that helps.. I was suspecting adjusting the AFR, but decided not to mess with it cause I’m still not very familiar with the system. I need to test my new fuel system now… next video 😁👍
