    A place to buy gear ???

    Is there a place (dealership ??) in N Illinois/S Wisconsin that would have a good variety of snowmobile gear? Highlands Yamaha was the place years ago. I can find a bunch online, but would really prefer to actually try it on before purchasing. Thanks

    Air Compressor...How Big?

    Not sure how big of air compressor to buy, or what kind even. I am kinda limited with space. I wont be doing anything big with it like frame a house. Mainly will be used for small nailers, airing up tires, and light mechanical work. I am assuming that if I wanted to run some type of die grinder...

    1996 XLT High Idle

    My cousin's XLT all of the sudden idles high enough to engage the clutch. Started doing this in the middle of a recent ride. I sprayed some starting fluid down by the crankshaft and didn't seem to change anything. Any thoughts?
