Well put !! Keyboard cowboys I won't lower myself to the level where stupidity runs rampent.

And back to the issue...

Can anyone tell me why the HECK the new engines come with the holes for the reeds NOT threaded? Man what a pain in the bum. Why would they do that? I had to drop off my engine this am to a buddies shop to get it threaded.

Other than that minor complaint I think I should have the whole thing up and running tonight! Stoked!!!!

haha true! Oh well, minor set back.

Thanks I think it should happen. Just gotta make sure all the bolts are tight, seals are in, engines good, new oils in all the little things done then fire her up!

Sorry to hear bout your early season. That just means next season will be that much better!

 

[~Rowdy~]

SHE'S ALIIIIIIIVVVVEEEEE!!!!!!! MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!
I am sooooo retardedly happy right now you can't even imagine. If I could spoon my sled at this moment I would. I am friggin PUMPED! She fired up and is WAY easier to start now. *tear* how I missed the roar of her engine.


Just need to get some chain case oil and a new bumper. My free replacement bumper is finally kaput! Thanks all for your help on here. I will post pics and the video of my start up and my retardedly stupidly happy dance and face when she fires!!!:d:d:d

Love at first fire

Glad to hear its up and running congrats!!

 

[~Rowdy~]

Super stoked! Just got my new bumper, some chain case oil and a few new spark plugs. My hands are greasy yet again. Love it.

I guess the reason my sled was over fueling was because the choke was outta whack, so a quick adjustment fixed that. Kill switch wasn't working because...it was unplugged... tee hee. haha Must of happened on a roll once. Dur!

Here's a couple pics!

1.) me with the engine
2.) Rob the man behind getting the engine in!
3.) Hrs engine replaced at
4.) KM's engine replaced at!

Don't know how to upload the video of the first fire

Wow I love my sled and sledding!

I'm not gonna stir the pot but i don't know if i would go this route, we tried in on 2 Specialty climbers and blew chains in both, can't explain it but i think it's to thin and doesnt stick to the chain well enough to lube. I went to Walmart and bought some synthetic gear oil and havent had any trouble.

Congrats on your build up.....great job.

I just bought ski-doo brand since I was there getting a bumper and plugs anywho. Should be good! Going to replace the chain and sprocket this summer as per my buddy Rob.

Thank you so much! I am super happy. Still on the "I fixed it myself" high.

Ohhh I know! I'm so excited to ride this weekend. Take her easy a bit, run my RPM's up and down. Stoked!

 

[tukernater]

they dont tap those holes because,your bolts are self tapping[unless you run V-FORCE] and they say its the best threads you will get?New chain cases are that way too.
