    A little white lithium grease from time to time on that gear setup will help it live even longer.

    IMG_1082.jpeg Had a chance to test out the “926” this weekend and it worked really well. It’s running a little bit lean; stalled out in some heavier snow and ran better with the choke slightly on. I’ll hit it with a good dose of Sea Foam and see if that solves it before I start messing with the carb.

    The unit has really good traction with those tires and not using chains. I have chains ready in case, but I’ll run it as is for now.

    I’ll keep this thread updated with results when we have some real snow to move.
