    Same thing happened to me. I had a '96 MXZ. Just died one day. Tested electricals .. all good. Carbs fully cleaned. All good. Tried a few other things. Nothing made sense. Then I glanced over and saw the plastic cap gone. Ugh. Drained the fuel, refilled, put some gasline antifreeze ... boom.
    Another great video. Great to see Christine (spelling?) again. Goofy couple you two crazy kids make.
    Love to come down to your shop some day :)

    Nice one Pete! Beaver trappens doing pretty good too! 🙂 I had one old sled that burned down the LEFT/ hot side three times in the 20 yrs. I had it,due to a mouse nest in the fan shroud! I just cleaned the aluminum off the nikasil with muratic acid and installed new piston! Never really hurt the cylinder any.

      @@robertanthony9674 I've never removed the bolts. I've always just pulled the nuts and lifted the motor out. It is VERY difficult to get to the driver side front nut when you have electric start because the starter motor sits on top of the nut.

    That's a shame they went to the nickasil bore on the fan engines. Go back a couple years earlier and they still had the old Fuji engines that look like they got pulled out of an early 70s Polaris. Not to mention the mono head and head gasket, not a plan. Tough to justify rebuilding one of those.
