Argghh, still no boating possible

[[2068]]

FP was late into the water anyway, but I fired up the engines last week to be met with the soundtrack from "The Hoover from Hades" when the Supercharger engaged.

I noticed that my 860401 was a bit loose, so ordered a couple of 941792's with a plan to re-attach. But then it turns out that I have a large hole in my 861092, and of course, the chances of getting an 861092 late on a Saturday afternoon are precisely zero.

I suppose it could have been worse, though: it could have been a problem with the 3581528.

I can't be bothered to look up all those numbers :sleeping:

What, you haven't memorised all the part numbers???

Ok, here's the 861092, with an extra Turtle.

You must be really bored to memorize those numbers. Boredom though, unlike a bad mood, does not abate by spreading it

It's just very frustrating: tomorrow is looking like a great day, and I have one working engine and another that sounds like a giant Hoover

You don't need the supercharger to use the boat, without them it will be like the 70's and the old AD engines....wot the engine and wait. They will and after a while find their turbo boost and push the boat onto the plane.
If you don't want to hear the hoover sound just disconnect the compressor electrical clutch connector, its like a 2 second job.

Ha ha ... I googled it ... Just had too, I'm inquisitive ... I'd wait for the part if it was me as the engines won't pull the same... Use the day to do jobs you don't have time for normally then your ready to play later... Good luck
