I wondered if tipping the motor up at the ramp might be a factor,
but that's rarely necessary at the ramp I use the most.

So, are you tipping the motor up? Like, maybe every third trip?

No....probably every tenth trip. I do it on ramps I'm not familiar with,
until I'm sure of the things you wanna be sure of in those situations.


Best answer gets 15 virtual beers.

Have you already established the problem and are testing the group?

Nope. Definition of "best answer": A solution which involves changing the
way I'm doing something, rather than spending money or time. Your suggestion
about running out the gas is a major contender in the former category,
obviously. :-) The next 3 days will give me an opportunity to test the idea.
