  • The old long track Deere hits the shop once again! With a Rotax 670 and 151" track, the 1980 Liquifire is far from how it left the factory... This sled was running and driving when parked, but after quite a few years of collecting dust it needed some help to get back on the trail.

    I don't have time to watch this now, but I just wanted to say that I'm super f*ckin excited to watch it. Old school UA-cam. What UA-cam was made for.

    Reminds me of my first snowpony, mid 70's Arctic Cat Lynx with a single cylinder 300cc Rotax stuffed in courtesy of my old man. I believe he had to reclock the exhaust can, make custom engine mounts to get belt deflection close enough to not chew stuff...man I miss those days🤤

    The old john deere sounds awesome but i have a question for you , i have a old 72 atric cat cheetha 399 i know nothing about it i put a mukini carb on it that sits at that stupied angle like you said and the first time i start it it takes right off runs great but when i shut it off and try starting it again 1 minute latter it is flooded . Does that sound like bad crank seals thanks

    • @toocheaptosmoke

    • @toocheaptosmoke
      @toocheaptosmoke  Рік тому +1

      How bad is it flooding, just enough to not run, or like geysers of gas out the plug holes almost hydrolocking? If the first, will it fire with the throttle held open a bit? If so, smaller pilot jet

    Now i lowered the carb and it starts and runs good with the minkini carb but when it idles after 15 to 20 seconds it floods out it runs good when i give it a little throttle is my needle set ro high

    • @toocheaptosmoke
      @toocheaptosmoke  Рік тому +1

      The brass float arm should be set to sit parallel with carb body when held upside down. If your carb(s) are vibrating or shaking alot at idle it can also flood out, dampen zip tie or bungee them to something. Or needle and seat could also just be worn

      no, the small pilot jet down inside the carb, they are sized around 20-50. Check out a mikuni diagram and you can see where it's located, you need a small screwdriver
