Hello:
I think you are a bit out of line talking to him like that. He was only trying to help, but you seem to be quite angry with your lack of success in fixing the problem and he's frustrated reading it. The advice he gives is quite good. Personally, I think you are nuts with no experience trying to set and sync these triple carbs and chokes. Take the darn thing to a dealer if you care about the sled and have it done right. Get to know a dealer so you can trust the work they do. If you can't afford to have the dealer do it, let the sled sit until you can, and don't bother with it.
Fusion,
Thanks for backing me up. Glad I'm not the only one on here that gets a little aggravated by the continuous flow of "bellyaching" from guys that are too immature to accept a little constructive criticism along with a ton of invaluable "free" technical advice.
My prior responses were not geared to be solely for him alone, but meant to be information geared towards everyone on here that expects other people to "solve" all of their sled's issues via the internet.
I think perhaps what I was saying was taken a little too personally by Polariscatgrabber11. I realize that I can be a little harsh with words, but that's just the way I am. For that, I apologize.
I guess what I was implying was that there are many folks out there that expect other people should "solve" all their probems for free. They're unwilling to pay for the knowledge, skills, and wisdom that others (such as a dealership/repair shop, etc) can provide them.
Look, that's called "freeloading", and nobody likes to deal with freeloaders.
Unfortunately, nothing's "free" in this world, that's life. We all have bills to pay.
About Polariscatgrabber11's comments about having a wife & kids, owning cars, trucks, a house, etc... blah, blah, blah. Yeah, so what? I also own a LOT of vehicles, I too have a job, I too have a lot of other responsibilities and then some.
What does that have to do with anything that we were discussing?
Absolutley nothing.
Perhaps, he was just trying to impress us? What he doesn't realize is that he's only impressing himself, in an attempt to make up for the fact that he has no idea how to fix his sled.
After all, he started this thread in the first place, searching for free advice and information, looking for other people to do all the "thinking and diagnosing" for him, since he is unable to do it himself.
That's fine I guess, because there are lots of guys out there (like myself) that enjoy helping out others when they can. But as the saying goes... "Hey, don't bite the hand that feeds ya!"
I guess one of the final points that I was trying to make in my earlier response was that for a small sum of money, I was willing to go the extra mile to help this kid out.
I was willing to copy a whole bunch of very pertinent MODEL SPECIFIC INFORMATION (that he really, really needs to fix his sled correctly) out of my OEM Service Manual and send it to him.
Oh well, guess it's his loss.
Anyhow, perhaps the information that I posted will be useful to other people that read it, and they will not be so ungrateful nor nasty with their responses.
