Funny... :lol:
We all have a right to enjoy!
I especially love the guy who was telling someone over there that valves need to be changed out every 15-20hrs or else you have to cut the valve seats... :roll: The wheeled forum over there is a joke. But it is a snowmobile forum, I don't even know why that surprises me. ;)

That place has some interested folks with interesting ideals. Waiting for the question: And whats up the dirtbike riders that stand while they ride? :roll: Lmao...

On topic: I have no YouTube access so I can't see the link. I just thought I recognized your username from the post I described above. Carry on...

yeah about the snowmobile,

one cylinder had 120 psi compression, while the other had 70. Needless to say, now my friend is in a heated battle of the blame game with the seller... pretty shitty situation

Its hard to win those. most likely just fix it and next time he buys a machine, take a compression tester! :roll:

I do it...
