Always keep a jug of ' acetone " , in your shop for removing pray paint and general overspray....just use kitchen gloves and a clean rag dampened with the acetone....a little is more. Just wipes away...no elbow grease.
im glad youtube recommended this one to me, my first sled was a 2001 z440 snopro and it looks like the same motor it had. nostalgia feels. pretty peppy engine for a fan cooled sled
Thats awesome. Reminds me of the sled my brother gave me. He said if I got it running I could have it. Cleaned the carb, new plug, new right front ski and it ran great. The sleds had me rolling. We destroyed every toboggan in the neighborhood inside a week. Then we went to saucers. Those were a riot. Thanks for the trip down memory lane. Great find.
You fell into a nice deal there. I collect old sleds and out here Fan Zs like that would fetch a grand each. The nice thing is these old Fan Zs use the classic ZR Cat chassis that they made for a decade. Parts are still out there if you dig on the web and usually not high priced. The 370 was a kids sled so it’s about 37hp, give or take. The 440 varies from 41 to about 50 depending on the year, carb set up, and model it’s in. I think the 370 was clutched and geared pretty tame. Hey it’s 20 years ago. 😎. Great beginner sleds and like Lego blocks you can look for more stuff to bolt on for mods. Enjoy.
awesome video…. but what sets the big mechanic utubers apart from the small ones… you gotta show more of the small stuff like installing each part and more detail and the full install… trust me people love that 100x more then a montage or sped up part.. but awesome video this was genuinely really entertaining ❤❤
Love the new video format, way better than the TikTok one, the faked enthusiasm on that app is atrocious and idk about anyone els but i love seeing the rawness of someone, even if they might be curbing language for the algorithm. Absolute king 👑
You shouldn't worry about it smoking a bit, in fact it's good for it to smoke, I own 3 old snowmobiles, all of which are 500 2-strokes, and they all smoke a lot, which is good. But yeah, no need to worry, especially if it's old like mine, which are 2 1976's and 1 1979
This is cool man I'm excited to watch this video. I actually just managed to inherit my dad's old snowmobiles that haven't been running for about the same amount of time. I have 1995 z440 and a 97 ZR 580. I just started working on it
If you don't have rollers wit you. Grab both ski loops and pick up at once so the carbides don't dig into the ground. it will be easier to move around that way.
I wish people would give away broken/non-running sleds here, where I live people still sell non running sleds for like 600-2000$ CAD. Ran when parked just needs new plugs or carb cleaned etc. lol. No your trying to sell a piece of garbage. Trying to dump your problem on someone else hahahaha.
The one without the snow flap.. it might be just stuck up underneath from riding it in reverse. Happens to those sleds all the time. My buddy thought his fell off . Take a peek.
Kicking the tail lights out reminds me of a guy that lost a speeding ticket case that walked out of court and then smashed his state of the art radar detector (this was late 70’s) on the sidewalk as the issuing trooper was walking by. Trooper then informed him that he clocked him with a stopwatch!
That's awesome man I got three snowmobiles for free from my friend but they sat outside for 6 years through snow rain and so they're in really bad condition well two of them are I got one of them running already that's cool man when you move to Colorado are you bringing them with you
Want to see you recover the seats. The one that lost shine try swirl mark remover by hand. Then wax it by hand. Power tools can leave swirl/dull finish sometimes.
It would be a grand idea to check all the bearings and slides in the track/suspension system before you burn grooves in your track. 7 years sitting means likely seized bearings
Wow. In the first minute we have waaaaay to much in common. 2 free sleds, ✔, smashed tail lights on trailer only to find out it was some cut wire, ✔. I have better teeth tho. No under bite. 😄
Never owned a snowmobile before but he's going to get these 2 running. Trailer tail light doesn't work then proceeds to kick and smash it only to find out why it doesn't work AFTER. Yah. I have my doubts. I decided then not to waste my time watching the rest of this video 🙄
Surya Mulk indexed with number 67, number of verses 30 1 Exalted is He, in the hand of His power is all dominion, and He has power over all things. 2 It is He who created death and life, to test you as to which of you is best in deeds. He is the redeemer, the forgiver of sins. 3 It is He who created the seven heavens pair upon pair. In the creation of the Merciful you can't see any contrast, so direct your gaze to see if you see any cracks? 4 Then, from time to time direct your gaze, and the gaze will return to you humble and humble. 5 We have adorned the nearest heaven with candles (luminous stars) and made them archers against the devils, for whom We have prepared a very great fiery punishment. 6 The punishment in hell is also for those who disbelieved in their Lord; what a bad place it is! 7 When they throw themselves into it, they will hear its roar and it boils. 8 "Out of anger, it is almost torn apart. Whenever a crowd rushes into it, the guard asks them: "Didn't a prophet (rebuking) come to you? 9 They say: "Yes, the Prophet came to us, but we refuted him, and we said to them: "Allah did not reveal anything, and you are only in a great loss!" 10 And they say: "If only we had heard and remembered, we would not be among the dwellers of the Fire." 11 So they confess their sins; may the dwellers of the fire be far from mercy. 12 Those who fear their Lord without seeing it, for them there is forgiveness and a great reward. 13 And you, hide or speak your word openly; there is no doubt that He knows what you hide in your hearts. 14 Does not He who created know, when it is known that He penetrates the depths of secrets, knows the details. 15 It is He who has made the earth suitable for you, so walk through its parts and take advantage of His blessings, for with Him alone is the future. 16 Are you guaranteed by Him who is in the sky, that the earth will not shake you when it trembles. 17 Are you guaranteed by Him who is in heaven, that he will not send against you any storm with showers of stones. Well, you will understand what My punishment is like! 18 Even those before them lied, but what was My punishment!? 19 Did they not see the birds above spread their wings, and when their wings are folded, they are held in the air by none but the Almighty. He is the one who sees and knows everything. 20 Who is that army of yours that will help you but the Merciful? It is true that the disbelievers are in a great deception. 21 Who is it that feeds you, if He cuts off His provision? Nay, but they persist in arrogance and aversion. 22 Is he better guided who walks upside down with his face to the ground, or he who walks upright on the straight path? 23 Say: "It is He who created you, gave you hearing, sight and understanding, and you thank Him little" 24 Say: "It is He who created you and multiplied you on earth, and to Him alone will you be gathered!" 25 And they are saying: "When will this promise be fulfilled, if you are true?" 26 Say: "Only Allah knows that, and I am only a reprover who informs you!" 27 "When they see it (Hell) approaching them, the faces of those who disbelieved become ugly, and it will be said to them: "This is the one you sought as soon as possible!" 28 Say: "Tell me then, if Allah takes my soul and those who are with me, or has mercy on us, who will protect the disbelievers from a painful punishment?" 29 Say: "He is the Merciful, in Him we have trusted and in Him alone we have relied, and you will understand who exactly that lost one is!" 30 Say: "Tell me, if your water is lost in the deep, who will bring you surface (spring) water?",..
