Buggy is on a distinguished road
So the sled went back to the shop and we started the repairs again. I took out the whole main drive shaft from my parts sled and installed it into my sled. After a few hours work the old Evinrude was up and running again. I also have an old Yamaha Enticer 300 twin so my girlfriend and I decided to go out for a little ride. I gave her the Yamaha and I took my Evinrude. All was well until I decided to switch and give her the Evinrude for a bit. She moved 2 feet and the sled died AGAIN! It was a PITA to get started but I eventually got it going again. I took it out for a quick spin and everything seemed good. I gave it to the girlfriend again and after 2 more feet, it died! The joys of vintage snowmobiling! Turns out I still have a vacuum leak on the fan side of the engine. This brings us to now. I want to pull the engine and smoke test it to see where the vacuum leak is. That will likely be a summer project so stay tuned for pics of the engine removal, testing, and repair!
