Jimmy elvis preslys plane is for sale i sent the link ..u should go lookat it lol
What is a booey? Or a boowee? It's not in my dictionary. 🤷♂ Thanks.
It might be an ill man in a hospital with an emergency bell. He just could it ring once until the rope of the bell cracked. And because nobody could recognize his emergency and he died.
My guess ^^
The title says "Blue Gasoline Tried To Kill Me" but in reality the blue die in the 100LL actually did its job and clearly showed you had a leaking fuel problem and likely SAVED your life. So you have solved the fuel pump problems (2) but you still have a leaking tip tank, correct ? "LIKE" button has been torqued to the manufacturer's recommended specification. "CLICK"
Jimmy proved why you should always perform a complete preflight inspection.
I’m a retired professional pilot and have ratings and flown Captain in every Boeing since the 727, so when Jimmy said “every time you look at the airplane you throw $2500 at it,” I nodded my head in agreement. After owning two airplanes over 40 years I can fully concur, this is a hobby of spending money and occasionally one gets to actually fly an airplane. 😊
Like a boat, which is a 'hole in the Ocean you pour money into,' a plane in simply a 'hole in the air' and you STILL pour money into it!! =)
A family friend bought a new plane in the 70's from the manufacturer and suffered a dual fuel pump failure on the plane straight from the factory flying it home and crashed into a drainage ditch next to the road, and plane flipped over, his 2 passengers pulled him out but the plane caught on fire. The manufacturer gave him a new plane but still was the scariest flight he ever had.
As for your riddle; I seem to remember in the old days when they used to bury people they were afraid of them being buried alive, so they buried them, and installed a bell with a string or rope, tied to it going to the casket. That was just in case. The person who died was actually not dead, but alive. They then would ring the bell, and hopefully, the watchmen in the graveyard would hear it and dig them out before they died. Best I could come up with.
@@jerryv9138 Very true. I have a 42' sport fisherman and the bills to prove it. However, it will part company with me when I meet Jesus and not before. Boats are different in one major way than aircraft. An aircraft just takes you from A to B and then at B you are on your own. A boat also takes you from A to B but then at B you are already home. You crank op the generator, flip on the AC units, start the water maker and the ice maker and then pull up a fishing rod or don the SCUBA/snorkel gear. You occasionally hear the sound of the blender and the microwave in the background.
Also, when something happens to my engines I don't fall out of the sky. That's a pretty major difference as well.
@@DIYDaveT 😆 Well... I'll get where I want to go faster... and I've never been Air sick. Seasick.... Oh yeah!! LOL!! =)
A blind man enjoys walking near a cliff and uses the sound of a buoy to gauge his distance from the edge. One day the buoy's anchor rope breaks, allowing the buoy to drift away from the shore. When it rings, the man thinks he's further away from the edge than he is, walks over it, and falls to his death.
I am so happy you found the problem avoiding the possibility of turning into a CRISPY CRITTER! SPEND THE MONEY...GET TWO NEW PUMPS !! Fly safe my friend, fly safe.
Thanks for a great video...always good fun. It's so brilliant that you and your viewers helped your friend replace his stolen tools. 👍👍✌️🇬🇧
I hear ya on having modified tools that I have made that are only needed for one part. They can be invaluable.
Sympathy's to Phil, but glad he is back with 99 percent of his tools back.
Glad you where able to notice a leak and It not have something bad happen to you in the air.
Some of those makeshift and modified tools should be patented! BTW ……. Weird story, blind man, rope, bouy? Huh?
Jimmy....you are a great dad, family man and pilot......a true inspiration...please keep posting videos! !!!!
These things are true about you.
a man was buried alive back in the day when there were bells rigged with a string rope to his finger or hand ( they drank out lead pewter cups which caused death like comas) if you awoke you would pull the string if you moved) Pull to hard the bell rings once and nobody comes to get you out of the ground
I so look forward to your videos every week. Thanks - always entertaining and informative.
So nice of you
Love your videos. Happy Thanksgiving!!
I was born and raised at 310 Wallace Lane! I always wanted one! Never to be so I watch you instead! I told you about my year in Viet Nam and recently found some slides of the big AC graveyard at Tan Son Nhut AB! Sadly there are several Blue Canoes that were destroyed in the Tet Offensive of 1968 by sappers!
Thank you for the video.
Jimmy as you so beautifully have stated so many times " WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG ?? " . Please change the pumps and gaskets I ! ! I enjoy watching your channel and don't want to lose you now !...!...!
Another gem of a video Jimmy. Lots of good fuel pump info and a hearty laugh or two. The riddle was too complex for most people to guess
I know that guy, his face rings a bell…
Deerrrrrrr
I literally have been waiting since 1993 to hear the explanation of this riddle! I cannot tell you how relieved I have been since you revealed this on your show! Thank you! By the way, I paid $10 for a sticker about six months ago, still waiting .
Hahahahahaha!!!
Email me at therealjimmysworld@gmail.com and I’ll make sure you get the sticker :)
@@therealjimmysworld What is this WHATS-APP thing i keep getting when i comment on your channel
@@pcj3405 Scammers... don't talk to them.
@@pcj3405 I get it on almost all comments I make it is a scam.
Replace the pumps for sure, good luck. Looking forward to seeing what your new merch designs look like.
Jimmy, you're an awesome guy! Always have time for the family, planes, and great entertainment. Always enjoy watching your stuff on a Friday night after a long day of wrenching on trucks! Hopefully those parts don't cost dearly as much!
I appreciate that!
Where Jimmy goes trouble follows sop what could go wrong great video thanks Jimmy
I feel your pain. I just had the Romec pump on my Bonanza overhauled. Hopefully, it arrives today and I can get it installed this weekend.
did you go through QAA?
@@therealjimmysworld D and G Supply overhauled it. It looks amazing. I hope to get it back on the plane today. If I had been thinking, I would have completed my annual during the week it took to get the pump overhauled and returned.
Love ya Jimmy & Wife...carry on!
I just had my electric fuel pump start to leak and CJ Aviation now has it, they quoted a 5 day turn.....they are in Miami. I also live in Florida and thus it was quick to ship it there. I tried QAA and they said they were going to see if they could do it....they didn't call me back.

Cool video as always , i thank you on cheering me up after a long 24hr shift at work .
Going back to the old days when the "dead ringer" slogan was born: they learned that not every person who was thought to be dead, was actually dead. The person was buried and came back to life. This was discovered upon exhuming some caskets and finding severe scratch marks on the inside of the lid caused by the person thought to be "dead", but who really wasn't.
So, they began to bury people with a small pipe leading from the casket to above the ground. Inside the pipe was a rope attached to the supposedly deceased person's wrist or hand. The other end of the rope went up above the ground and was attached to a bell that was hanging from a hook. If the person should "wake up" they would panic of course and the movement of the arm would yank the rope and ring the bell, and the person assigned to keep watch at the cemetery would hear it and summon a team to immediately dig out and remove the casket and free the now very-much-alive person! This is where, as I said earlier, the slogan "dead ringer" came from. Apparently the person on watch would yell something like "we have a dead ringer" as he got the men together to begin digging.
Did I just age myself here?
For one example: I had to heat and bend a 3/8 boxed end to get to the nuts on the flap track rollers on a Cessna single. Fits all Cessna singles. So yes, I am well aware of custom made tools.
Jimmy thanks.....!! I am learning. Keep going, I enjoy your videos man! That riddle????
Love that riddle!! 🤣🤣🤣
Rebuild it as a U3 Canoe! There is an example at the Castle AFB museum...The riddle may be related to those who fly around the country buying random airframes to lose money on...the ring may be clue phone related too!
I’m guessing it has something to do with where we got the term Dead ringer. They used to bury people with a string tied to their wrist. This rope was attached to a bell near the grave stone. If you were buried asleep instead of dead, you could ring the bell. A person would stay at the grave sight all night to listen for ringing bells.
Ok, on a serious side, while my plane has an electric pump (the same one for a car is 80 bucks, for the plane, 600) and yours is engine driven, like my 65 Buick, I had the same mystery drip. It was the pump seal at the shaft. It seems when the fuel system was drained for another issue, that seal got to relax and wouldn't do it's job after pressure was put back on it. I could have easily changed it in 10 minutes but, noooooooo.... gotta do it all legal like and the guy charged me 550 bucks! I can hardly wait for my first annual and gear swing 😍. WHAT COULD GO WRONG????
Keep em coming Jimmy. Always entertaining and even educational!
Excellent stuff bro
When I was a kid. My dad and I , we didn't buy anything new unless we had to, we rebuilt starters, alternators, carburators, transmissions, everything, I was 15, before I knew you could buy a whole new starter or alternator, 😆 haha, not really, but we never bought one, unless we could not get parts to rebuild then, even looked into fuel pumps and about anything you might think of!! And we did everything out self!!
The dye in the 100LL saved your life. Fuel leaks in any aircraft are potential killers, spend the money on new/rebuilt pumps. Hopefully you can narrow down the area on the tip tank that leaks. I enjoy your videos.
I leave a bit more of a gap between the "clear prop" and starting the engine so that anyone too close has time to get clear 😉
Good catch on the fuel pumps. I'd have changed them vith anyway even if only one was leaking at the moment.
I suppose an alternative - the man was hauling the bell up a tower using a pully a the top. The rope broke, which caused the bell to ring, the bell fell 40' hitting the man and killing him.
Timely... thanks for that. Similar-looking problems with the left main on our 310R. Sigh.
Your plane's role model is the SR-71 and wants to be just like them... 😂
Alternative answer. Preacher rings church bell. The rope breaks and the bell falls from bell tower and kills him. More obvious than a bouey.
There is another answer to the riddle.....it goes back many many years to when ppl were buried, a string or rope would be attached to their toes or fingers and to a bell placed topside. This was so that if the ppl were buried alive, then they could ring the bell and be dug up and let free, but someone was employed to sit in the graveyard at night to listen for the bell/s (hence the shiftworkers late night shift being called "the graveyard shift). So, if the rope/string broke for any reason, the person died
As for the riddle my only guess is they used to tie a string around your finger when you died that was attached to a bell. Iirc people would be very ill and sometimes be buried alive. So by pulling the string the person would pull the string to ring the bell and hopefully someone would hear it and be able to dig you up in time. My thought was someone was buried alive. In a panic the bell rang, until the rope broke making the bell stop and he died due to lack of oxygen.
I remember this custom wrench that my dad made to take off and put on the prop on his Cherokee 235. Good times.
Always replace pairs (both pumps) see if there is a rebuild kit available..
The bell is attached to a buoy at the beach, the rope breaks and the bouy floats out to sea, the man is blind and uses the bouy to tell where the ocean is, he is atop the cliffs and the bell rings so he thinks it is farther out at sea and he walks right off the edge of the cliff.
That joke has more than one answer: The man was ringing the bell in a church tower. He pulled on the rope and as he dangled, the rope broke, the bell rang and he fell down the church tower.
A priest was going to ring before mass,. The rope broke, The bell rang when it hit the priest and the floor and he obviously died. That's all I got LOL
The man pulled the rope, the rope broke, the bell rang, the bell fell hitting him and killed the him. Enjoying the channel. Tks for sharing.
The rope broke, the bell rang, and the man died.

Jimmy hows the Harvard and the mig going? keep bringing us joy and laughter and on a serious note nice flying moustache
Do the right thing
The bell is attached to a buoy at the beach, the rope breaks and the bouy floats out to sea, the man is blind and uses the bouy to tell how close he is the the cliff near wh.ere he takes his evening walks
The man is a bell ringer. He’s in the bell tower. He is hanging on the rope as it lifts him from the ground as the bell swings. The rope broke, the bell swings fully, and it rings. He falls and dies.
It would have helped if I knew the man was blind (yeah right).😂 Glad you found that the leak wasn't a bladder, but it still sucks that it's so expensive.
Hey Jimmy, love your videos, I watch all of them. Here’s something you may be interested in, a battery powered transfer pump. Uses two d cell batteries and pumps about 2.5 gallons per minute. Cost about $15 .
That riddle made me swear lol. How am I supposed to come up with all that from the info given. Over my head.......
Live in a small harbor town in northern Michigan and there's this bar (Bar Harbor) that makes the best fried pickles!
Funny thing...
They don't fry pickles, but apparently only for me they did.
Love that bar, love Harbor Springs.
New pumps are a must!
A safety coffin or security coffin is a coffin fitted with a mechanism (Rope connected to a bell) to prevent premature burial or allow the occupant to signal that they have been buried alive. A large number of designs for safety coffins were patented during the 18th and 19th centuries and variations on the idea are still available today.
I’m sure today’s model’s are BlueTooth capable.
From what I'd heard, the terms "graveyard shift", "dead-ringer" and "saved by the bell" were related to these security coffins...
Peanut butter is great on the fried pickles. Stay safe and have fun.
Man was looking up at a bell hanging from a rope. The rope broke and the bell fell, hitting the man on the head and ringing loudly in the process. It was a very heavy bell. The man did not survive.
Go Jimmy go , save the 310 again.😊
Make the 310 great again! Hahahahaha
@@therealjimmysworld Jimmy rocks!!😉
The fuel stains on the hangar floor and on the plane likely contain a very high proportion of extremely toxic tetraethyl lead (TEL). Although the fuel itself contains a bit less than a gram of TEL per liter, avgas is much more volatile than TEL. As the spilled fuel evaporates, the oily TEL remains and becomes highly concentrated in the blue residue. The residue from two gallons of spilled 100LL will contain almost 7 grams of TEL. You might consider remediation of some sort as TEL vapor isn't something you want in your hangar or your bloodstream.
hey jimmy, that switch looks just like the ones I replace regularly in my job. I am an Electronics Technician working in food packaging, processing and prep. Anyhow the switch looks dirty, polluted. Generally loose mounts are a common problem for those so locktite blue and inside star lock washers helps to end those problems. During install they need to be clean and degreased. another thing is they are not sealed against fluids. water is the worst thing getting in, oil is the next worse. They come in a larger size, some of those can be had with seals. The big unsealed ones are easily defeated by coffee dust in packagung plants. I imagine the little unsealed ones, like you showed would also fail from dust. anyway, I enjoy yoir aviation videos, cheers! Me? yeah, that lake la4 is mine....
That an engine-driven diaphragm fuel pump not much different than than that of a 1950's era Ford flathead costs $1000 from any manufacturer is insane. It's a mechanical diaphragm pump, and such pumps are guaranteed to leak; it's just a matter of time. Why hasn't anyone fixed this obvious design flaw, and mandated a retro fix for this safety hazard?
Isn't that the tip tank you ran out of fuel on your flight to fix the RV? It may have been on it's last legs and when it ran dry the stress of running empty caused your problems with the pump leak. 🤔
Didn't see your post, posted the same hypothesis .
Great observation, could have been the final straw to send that pump to the pile.
@@sierraromeo 😂😂
Years ago they used to bury people with a line to a bell above ground in case they were buried alive
thus you were a dead drunk, and if you saw someone that looked just like someone that had died, they were referred to as a dead ringer!
my riddle answer, A blind man enjoys walking near a cliff, and uses the sound of a buoy to gauge his distance from the edge. One day the buoy's anchor rope breaks, allowing the buoy to drift away from the shore, and the man walks over the edge of the cliff.
Answer is this. The bell is attached to a buoy at the beach, the rope breaks and the bouy floats out to sea, the man is blind and uses the bouy to tell where the ocean is, he is atop the cliffs and the bell rings so he thinks it is farther out at sea and he walks right off the edge of the cliff.

Some times if it's not broke don't fix it like the fuel pump keep inspection of it
the man tried to ring a church bell, then the rope broke dropping the bell on his head
Thats hilarious
No problem! Weld the leaky bladder! What could go wrong? LOL
SOAP FIX. Give it a go and see what happens, then get it fixed the right way.
Good morning from Minnesota!! Yep just keep throwing money at it and she will let you fly her!!
Always play safe
Good video Jimmy fix the pumps buddy don't want a fire
My first guess was bad fuel had damaged a seal or gasket somewhere in the fuel system, making me worried when you put that fuel right into another aircraft without doing a check on contamination first.
Was right about at least the second part of it being a bad seal or gasket :)
I'll second that! Bad practice to fuel that was previously in another airplane without a proper storage and filtration system.
A man pulled on the rope in the bell tower to ring it. It rang, the rope broke and the bell fell on him killing him.
not sure if you ever got that old riddle, but the answer, or one of them, is: The bell is attached to a buoy at the beach, the rope breaks and the buoy floats out to sea, the man is blind and uses the buoy to tell where the ocean is, he is atop the cliffs and the bell rings so he thinks it is farther out at sea and he walks right off the edge of the cliff.
ok, now I've seen the whole video and see that the answer I got was right. However, I also like the one where the friar went out to the bell tower, pulled on the rope to ring the bell and the bell rang, the rope broke at the same time ,and the bell fell and crushed the friar.
Good puzzle, she should do more of those every now and then.
Giving thanks the Lord has kept you and your family safe, Jimmy!!! I enjoy the channel, the commerodity of your friends, and all the airplane fun.
The 310 is the best! (imo) :)
The last minute/ and / LOL....LOL.... call it blind man bluff eh - lol.. Thanks for the video all.. Ian - UK.
I had the same thing as you had. I fly a LAKE LA-4-200 and the electric boost pump failed to send fuel to the head. Replaced it and found one of the fittings was dripping fuel into the cargo hold. Seems the previous owner had used the incorrect fitting. It has probably been leaking since he had it installed. My fuel tank is in the back of the fuselage and could have been catastrophic disaster. Always inspect for Blue fuel.
@@user-ux3gt5tu3s Good Morning My fellow pilot. I will try to call you on the phone . Unfortunately I am un-familiar with texting. Old school phone. have a Great Day . RjMorganB2 is my site on youtube. Arrgh , everyone knows me as "The Captain Morgan' past career of 26 years.
Had a fuel leak in cabin of 152. pooled on floor. All dried and next day frost formed on carpet near leak. Turned out to be a pin hole in fuel line under a P clip.
A LOT of MISSING information to solve that riddle.......smh, LOL.
Riddle: A rope breaks a bell rings and a man dies, what happened?
Answer: The bell is attached to a buoy at the beach, the rope breaks and the bouy floats out to sea, the man is blind and uses the bouy to tell where the ocean is, he is atop the cliffs and the bell rings so he thinks it is farther out at sea and he walks right off the edge of the cliff.
Could also be a variant on #1.75 (as suggested by Mike Neergaard): the bell-cord breaks when he falls (and there's no second bell involved). 1.75a variant answer: The man is a boxer. The first bell signals the start of a round; the second is either the end of the round or a funeral bell after he dies during the match.
Be safe
(buoy spelled correctly) The bell is attached to a buoy at the beach, the rope breaks and the buoy floats out to sea, the man is blind and uses the buoy to tell where the ocean is, he is atop the cliffs and the bell rings so he thinks it is farther out at sea and he walks right off the edge of the cliff....splat!
So glad you found the problem before take off.
Anything to do with aircraft parts is way more expensive than it should be.
Be safe and what could possibly go wrong?
How hard should it be to rebuild the pump yourself? Probably a half dozen parts and a snap ring plier. But my guess the kit is $1500.
We should be grateful that Porsche doesn't make airplane parts!
@@desertdenizen6428 don't give them ideas!
Safety has no price! Spend the money.
The man rang the bell tower, the rope broke, and the bell fell on his head, ringing itself, and killing him.
Snap crackle pop
The rope attached an anchor to a buoy. A blind man walking near the edge of a cliff used the bell from the buoy to gauge how close he was to the edge. When the rope breaks the buoy drifts out to sea and the man walked over the edge of the cliff and dies.
OR,,, the leak stopped because the pressure of the fuel above the leak was drastically reduced?
Don't forget , " Rope A Dope" awe it's ok , we'll just use it. There's a lot of memorial services going on where the spirit of the man/women said , Damm shouldn't a done dat. 🤨
3:45 fuel cell Jimmy.
For whom the bells tolls
Duh...change the right one as well, if there is staining/leaking.
Did you light a match to see inside the tanks?
The man was a Toller aka Bell Ringer. Old rope, bell falls man dead.
