  • Blowing up a snowmobile is never super fun. But doing it 3 times in one season gets very expensive! We're back for the 2021/22 season and Rick talks about what went wrong last winter. Everything from breaking the crank in the two stroke triple to putting a new motor in the 2018 Arctic Cat Mountain Cat at 4000 miles. The two stoke turbo is still down for the count.
    If you're new to our channel, we post videos about snowmobile tuning. Lots of tips and tricks for maintaining and modifying your sled and sled trailer. Mostly just DIY sled stuff for people who like to get their hands dirty or tinker in their garage.

    Can’t wait for more videos! Learned a lot last year, first year sledding. Pulled my motor, greased crank bearings, replaced seals. Your carb video last year helped too.
