Classic snowmobile cold start part 1

Here is part one of starting up the snowmobiles after sitting all summer. Included are a 1974 Evinrude Trailblazer rotary powered 45 H.P. And a 1972 Polaris Colt 340 SS. The Rotary was giving me alot of problems due to the fact the Carb needs to be rebuilt and the Battery was frozen. The Temp was about 5 Degrees that day. The polaris colt was started in real time. No priming or anything. Just pure Polaris! it hadn't been started in about a year.




Depending what my Dad video taped, Part two hopefully will include the '70 Ski doo and Evinrude Skeeter. Stay Tuned. . .

Putting in fresh fuel and cleaning it i'm sure would increase your engine's life ;) Cool vid though. <---Has a 1972 Polaris Colt myself. It's on my channel.

@icanflyhigh Thanks for visiting Yeah, I added the fresh gas and the carb still needs to be cleaned. (in the summer when it's sitting you don't think about it) I forgot that if you hold the throttle while cranking it fires right up every time. I checked out your Polaris and I think it sounds and looks great for sitting for so long. I just bought a '70 Polaris charger that has been sitting for around 10 years and it fires right up. I'll post a video of it when I get home in two weeks.

@GMiswhatIdrive Sweet. I'd love to see it. Hey, question. Any idea where I can get a sealed beam WITH the housing mounts? 4 1/2" diameter beam. I'm having so much trouble. Also, my Colt doesn't like starting up on full throttle. Besides, I'd hate to see it take off without me. Ha ha!
