It’s pretty close to that I have both hooked up to the same power source but that shouldn’t matter should it?
So funny story apparently between replacing the non combustible gas and cleaning the carbs I switched the left and middle plug I noticed this and switched it back and it started on the second pull! And the RPMs don’t climb by themselves any more and it doesn’t bog down. I also sprayed some carb cleaner on the crank seals and the RPMs didn’t change. However I did find that the secondary clutch can wiggle on the shaft a little anyone know if that’s normal?

The oil is getting changed tomorrow, however I checked the oil and it was a little low it was still in the operating range just not at the top so I put some oil in it and the noise isn’t there any more when it’s cold also I have an oil leak that has progressively worse it seems lately I think that may have contributed as well and I plan on getting it fixed soon hopefully.

I got the rope fixed and tried to start it still with nothing although the furthest right cylinder if your facing the direction of the sled has oil on it and smells like gas the middle one has beads of something on it smells like gas and the left one has nothing on it.

I checked and it does have 5w 30 in it and oil pressure is good I hadn’t driven for about a week and it isn’t garaged but it started right up and sounded fine and it was pretty cold so I don’t know. It is due for an oil change in about a hundred miles though.

I siphoned out and replaced the gas which it seemed to try to start now so just for kicks I pulled the drain screws on the front of the motor and the white milky stuff came oozing out so I just it drain for a while and tried to start it it popped a little so it must be getting better but then the rope broke :whistle:

Well I decided to try something I dunked a stick into the gas and then held a match up to the stick ( I walked away from the snowmobile first) and nothin happened it didn’t even try to burn so I’m guessing that’s what you call a gas fail haha so I plan on replacing the gas and see what happens.

I got new plugs and nothin so I did a compression check and there was 90psi in each cylinder almost exactly the same in each I don’t know what it’s supposed to be though. But still if I put gas or fuel directly into it it runs until it burns it all. Also the plugs are wet everytime I pull them maybe it is the gas doesn’t burn I added some fresh gas but it wasn’t much and wha was in there was probably a mix of one and 2 year old gas it’s only got about a quarter tank now.
