    Pressurizing the tank worked in getting the gas flowing again for my 97 polaris. But rather than blowing in the tank, hook your shop vac hose to the air outtake and use that up against the gas opening. Tons of pressure and works quickly wihout getting dizzy!

    PERFECT VIDEO TO WATCH!!! I honestly tried almost everything you said, but I didn’t spray the inside of the spark plug neither did I try to keep spraying the carb but watching your video gave me the knowledge and confirmation that that’s what I need to do and I’m so looking forward to getting my build running tomorrow🙏 thank you

    Super job on the vids guys, keep them coming!!! To all younger guys trying to get into vintage sleds this is a great way to start out eliminating problems, this guy is doing it right.
    Do a carb clean on a Mikuni and the Tillotsons if you have any with the fuel pump on the bottom, those are finicky if the diaphragms are brittle.

    great video, I just did all that before seeing your video.
    I put the air nozzle from my compressor in the tank with my hand over it to pressurize the tank, disconnect fuel lines at carb and pump a pint through the lines and fuel pump into a glass bottle to check for water.
    Thoroughly cleaned both carbs, found both pilot jets clogged.
    Installed new fuel filters on each line and a shutoff valve.
    Just like an outboard, they start easy when they're setup right.

    Thank you so much!! I’m not a two stroke mechanic so this was a big help! I guess an engine is just an engine. Pulled and cleaned plugs, ( they looked pretty good). Checked spark, ok.
    Found an old bottle cap…cleaned it thoroughly….poured a cap full of mix down each hole. Fuel, and filter looked and smelled like gas so I took a chance. Fortunately the tank is almost empty so headed to the airport to get some airplane gas.
    Got a few seconds run out of each pull, but six or seven tries and it runs like a watch! Thank you a bunch. You just saved us some valuable time in the midst of a pretty good blizzard.

    Great job? Clear, concise, and to the point. Great pace, and decent vid. Could maybe get a few close up shots when speaking about a few things (from our perspective) that are a little harder to see.
    Loved it. Just saying; )

    I have a 1998 skidoo formula III that I've done everything to I've cleaned the carburetor's like 2 times put new gas in fixed the choke system I think it might be spark plugs but, I'm not sure they have barely any spark but when I first got it it would fire up start and run then die but now it won't even fire and I'm tempted to just sell it for damn parts

    boy I just learned that even if you see spark them plugs may still need replaced. If you have spark it will prolly start but it may run like crap if the plugs really arent any good

    Use premium gas in small engines; they just run better.
    I wouldn't use premix for starting purposes - go directly for the heads.
    You can prime with oil too, just press the throttle a few times, it will force oil in the cylinder. #MechPump
    I use a graded dropper for priming, so I know exactly how much I am putting in there.
    How can anyone know if your technique worked, if you didn't even start this one? XD #CaptainObvious
