Small Engines

I use Pennzoil Ultra 10W-30 when the temperature is 32 degrees Fahrenheit and hotter and Pennzoil Ultra 5W-30 32 degrees Fahrenheit and colder.

Briggs & Stratton recommends SAE 30 weight in the summer and SAE 10w30 in the winter. I highly recommend you use Synthetic oil in any air cooled engine.

set the cylinder to tdc on valve overlap. remove the valve cover. you may leak a small amount of oil so have a container to catch it or a rag to wipe it up. loosen the outer nut, turn the inner screw in or out to the valve lash setting as checked with a feeler gauge. while holding the inner screw from moving, tighten the outer nut and recheck the setting. after it is set, turn the motor over a few times by hand if possible and check the setting again

what the last guy said was wrong! i have a 1980 ski-doo citation 4500 with an 82 motor and it is a pre-mix! you need to mix gas with the oil. i and the dealerships suggest 32 parts gas to 1 part oil, or 32:1!

you need to take the front cover off of the CD player then you should be able to see the CD and you can just pull it out if you need any more help just ask

can you tell mewhatthebook value of a 2003 skidoo summit snowmobile is with 200 miles

there is a drain bolt on the back side then fill it up to the full mark

A tecumseh 6.5hp engine is a 195cc.

Yes, as long as you dont do it for the entire life of the mower do it only if you need to burn mix that you cant use before it goes bad

Could you tell me the year of the sled? You can do this through my message board and I will try to help.

articat atv366 wont start makes a cliking noise has good battery

The engine is manufactured in China, which I am assuming you mean the Powermore 357cc engine. The plant in China is a partnership of MTD in Canada...

They are both junk. Get a Yamaha.

It is usually above the float in the little bowl at the bottom of the carb.

Eureka, Missouri a roller coaster accident happened in July 1984. A woman was flung 20 feet from a new stand up roller coaster.

You're probably not going to be able to hook the headlight to the motor as you most likely don't have a battery or generator. Your spark is most likely powered by a magneto and there's no way I can think of to use the magneto to power a light. If you have electric start, then you have a battery and you can hook up directly to that. Your best option is to get a small motorcycle battery and mount it on the frame and power the lights directly from the battery. The downside is that you will have to recharge the battery from time to time. The alternative is to just get a flashlight or set of battery operated LED lights which last a long time and mount them to the frame. Good luck.

I suggest using soda bottle caps, or maybe even Gatorade caps since they're larger and allow for more distance traveled. I would use bottle caps or CD's

I'm no scientist, but it would seem logical that diesel would actually pollute more, due to the fact that it is more of a less refined raw fuel, than gasoline.

Also, due to the fact that almost everyone in my area puts a smoke chip in their truck, this is a whole different story of pollution.

I am a diesel technician so let me shed some light on this. Pound for pound and like for like, a diesel is more efficient and pollutes less. This is because that a diesel engine unlike a gas engine does not limit the amount of air that gets to the combustion chamber and most new diesels are turbo charged to match air to fuel more efficiently.

I am assuming that both the gasoline and diesel have unrestricted air filters, recent tune ups, and are properly functioning. Diesel takes less energy to refine from the get go so there is first step in reducing pollution. Diesel has more heat calories or BTU's per gallon than gasoline, this equals more power per gallon and is second to reducing pollution. Third like I stated prior, diesel engines match air to fuel, not fuel to air like gasoline engines. A gas engine needs 14.7 to 1 air to fuel to burn clean and if anything alters that ratio it will burn dirty. A diesel in comparison can operate on a wide variety of A/F ratios and still burn clean.

The down fall of the diesel is oxides of nitrogen. NoX is created with combustion temps of over 2500 degrees F. This requires that O2 is not limited to the combustion process and in a diesel it is not. Gassers can produce NoX as well if the A/F ratio becomes lean. Both systems can be filtered through a catalytic converter to reduce these emissions. Hope this helps.

Start by putting the flywheel on the ( T ) mark or on top dead center with the piston up . With both lobes on the cam facing down the pointers on the cam gear and the mark on the top of engine should be ligned up .

Where is the mark on the top of the engine

Sounds like the coil is bad on the one side ,need to replace coil .

tha CU7211 fits a 2000 ZRT 800. For more info 315-964-2577

Normally you cannot do this without modifications.

A 250 ATV can go from 80 to 120 kmh

The engine that comes standard with every Enticer 340 is a two-stroke, fan-cooled twin engine designed for this snowmobile. It reaches a maximum horsepower of 32 at 6,500 rpm, and a maximum torque of 25 foot-pounds at 6,000 rpm. With an engine size of 440-cubic centimeters, the Enticer can reach a maximum speed of 55 mph on the snow.

Try NKG TR5 (2238). I found it on the NKG website

Ther are really to many probable causes to even start diagnosing with out more info.Really need a tech to look at it,or understand how it works and have equipment to diagnose yourself.But to answer your question ,Something in your system is not operating the way it is supposed to.
