Good luck: My two cents with the baby Spirit FA's (275cc/340cc) twins is the heads and cylinders like to work loose over the years and leak air. That leads to burn downs. New gaskets and proper torque down with follow up stops that.
BTW they made so many of these from 1976-1980 that NOS and non NOS outside supplier parts can still be found on the web. Someone started selling pistons for the 275cc again last year. (54MM bore). The 340 shares some gaskets and other parts with the fan cooled version, I think. They made that a lot longer. Simple motors. Easy to work on. 20hp/30hp class. Great ice fishing sled.
Omg! just a few years back I had a primary trail sled, a utility sled and 18 vintage snowmobiles, I could fix these all day, now my back is shot to hell. I sold all of my sleds and moved to Texas
Heck of a nice freebe or well 30.00 sled.i still would rebuild carb,dissamble clean primary clutch,totaly clean old gas out for new,fresh oil lines just so you can see if its adding its oil.or just mix gas.wash n buff wait for snow.snookie pa.💥🤟💥
I'd use some electric dilute grease on those connections. No it doesn't you can use A multi meter tester for testing those on resistance mode. It should Beeb.& Go to all zeros.,or the readings it says it's supposed to be in the books on them.& You can check online for manuals on those to.
A Jag was my first sled. Got it for free too. One of those, "if you can start it, you can have it deals."
Cool. My first sled was a 76' Jag 2000 FA. Those Suzuki engines were tough.
Those are so easy to tear apart even if it was a stator or even doing a rebuild on them. But cool old sled there bud

Green corrosion in those plug ins is your issue...secondary resistance at the coil has to be checked with the plug caps off!
Check the CDI box.& The voltage regulator rectifier box on it to Bud cause both of those can go out.& The coil.& Sator as well to.
I recommend running some redline 2 stroke oil mixed in with the other oil that's in it still to. CTV clutch PB- blaster on those springs.

And some on the slide sleeve on that CTV clutch drive to.
Grass drags!!! 🤘🏻
I really want to grass drag my 95 440 mxz like u are at the end of the vid
Pass it on to the next guy because of a stator? I'll be that guy! Take me 15 min to fix that lol
Needs a good proper carb clean!
@2vintage had the same issue on I believe the same snowmobile
Close, his was a Pantera
Good for you lad
Poor kitty
