The new 2012 EPA snowmobile engine emission regulations will eliminate or at the very least greatly reduce the new production of carbureted snowmobile 2 stroke engines. 2012 USA Government EPA Fleet emissions averages just will not allow production of non compliant carbureted 2 stroke engines.
Soooooooooo if you really really like 600cc & larger carbureted 2 stroke engines your time to purchase is very limited. You will be able to continue purchase Etek 2s & some CFI 2s engines but carbureted 2 stroke engines will not be available.
4 stroke snowmobile engines currently meet all 2012 EPA emissions.
If OEMs don’t make many 2s snowmobiles we can’t buy them.
Are we going to see the OEMS sell more 4s than 2s snowmobiles to meet fleet emissions averages even Ski-doo?
