  • I didn't get the results I was hoping for, but we just keep on going either way. Lots of fiddle fart projects help keep the dream alive and it's part of the off grid lifestyle at the cabin.

    Hi Jay, check the tank to make sure you don't have something in there blocking and change the filter after to a clear one if you can..

    Poor Jay
    This just wasn't his day.
    At least he tried
    Laughed instead of cried.
    He worked on a lot of things as he should
    But at the end it didn't do any good.
    So I guess now the carburetors apart he will take.
    Then hope at last it will work for heaven's sake.😊
    Wishing you the best of success my friend.

    Once winter is over, buy a bottle of Stabil and put recommended amount in the tank and run engine for a bit. You'll be happy you did come next winter.

    Hey Jay, hold off on the carby for now... when you blew through the gas line, it cleared for a while. I would first check the filter or fuel tank for a bit of plastic or a leaf blocking the outlet. You blew it out of the way but it made it's way back to blocking fuel flow. I know nothing about snow mobiles, it's been 30°C here today, but that seems like it could be an easy fix if it is just muck in the fuel tank or filter. Greetings from sunny Perth, West Australia. Cheers, Frank.

    Because snowmobiles operate primarily in wet conditions there isn't a need for an air filter with no dust in the air.

    You need to check the filter in the gas line, between the gas tank and the pump don't just blow in the line, or it will just clog again. From what I can see the oil need changing.

    Hey Jay
    I'm guessing but maybe snowmobiles are like boat motors and don't have air filters. I wouldn't know sense I'm from Florida. Wouldn't even know how to ride one lol! There's no dust on water, probably the same on snow. Just a thought. Enjoy your channel 😊

    I have no idea what a two cycle carb is like due to 2 cycle paranoia. I always ran my two cycle engines dry on my boats and chainsaws if I thought it might be the last use of the season, but now they are all gone, replaced by electric, or battery powered. I did forget that there was gas in my electric start Honda generator and have not fixed it yet and probably never will due to age keeping me off the floor and not being able to lift it anymore. I did get two smaller ones with a gas cut off, so it is easy to run them dry quickly, and to drain the tank quickly.

      @@OffgridwithJayandJen I have used electric chain saws for years and people have seen me use them and are amazed at their power. I have cut fairly large trees with them, and even used with a generator away from the house. I have a new battery powered 12" saw which amazed me at the strength and size of things it will cut.

    The fuel filter may be denser than it should be and the choke thus harder to adjust - the mix air fuel must be close to correct.

    How much dust do you experience in the snow? Not much use for a filter when used in the right environment.

    @zefallafez 5 месяцев назад

    I'd replace the fuel filter before messing with the carburetor. It could allow gas to filter through it for awhile before reclogging and then unclog after awhile and reclog. It's a cheap part to replace and should be done each or every other season.
