After Sunday every day in the forecast is about 45°. Many in the 50s. I will take it

I'm actually kind of bummed by the amount of snow fall. I only got to fire up my snowblower 2-3 times, and I probably didn't even really need it 2 of those times.

Last night Skilling said no snow and above average temps for next 2 weeks, lol

This pleases me greatly

I havent even gone thru 2.5 gallons of gas in my snowblower yet.
I'm okay with that, c'mon Spring

 

[EmersonHart13]

I wish I never put gas in it....

 

[SpeedSpeak2me]

Like Yaj Yak said, we did get snow in April of last year. While I do appreciate the optimism I’m not convinced.

Fingers crossed though. Would like to get an additional month or two of seat time on the motorcycles this year.

 

[blakbearddelite]

That's the other thing, though I don't know I ever filled it up 100%.

 

[SpeedSpeak2me]

I don’t have a snow blower, just a few shovels. Each year I keep putting off getting one. Instead I use my neighbors little 16” 4 stroke when needed.

At the first snowfall I put in just enough gas to get the job done (also has stabilizer in it). Then added some more when finished. Did that again on the second (and latest) usage. Gonna take all of five minutes to run it dry for summer storage ?

Keep the sled threads on top though. Give the boys memories of the 2x they went this year

5-10k in equipment.... 10 hours of usage each year

 

[EmersonHart13]

I usually put in a fresh tank at the beginning of the season and have no issue going through it then fill slowly after. NOT THIS YEAR! FUCK, I already know I'm gonna have to tear it apart. I blame ethanol.

Just run it dry

 

[EmersonHart13]

Too late, last time I ran it I could tell the damage had been done. I only used it once this year and it was a couple weeks ago. When we got that October snow I pulled it out and gassed it up. It was too early.

I love it... It's like.... You don't live in Colorado or michigan or NY. Adapt to your environment...

Add some stabil and shake it around? Lol

 

[EmersonHart13]

I need to start running it for every tank.

 

[Lord Tin Foilhat]

I just bought a jar to add to my reserves that sit in winter, granted I've never had an issue using it come spring

No worries, they've already got their embellished stories geared up to tell people alllll summer long

What they did: Hopped their unskilled fat ass on a bank-owned sled and rode 40-60mph in a straight line from bar to bar and got progressively more drunk

What they'll say they did: RODE OVER WATER, went up a steep ass mountain that nobody else could get over, never got stuck once (unlike the rest of the group), hit 100+ on a frozen lake, blablhblahblahlbah

ok, I'm okay with that... just need the rain to clean the streets

 

[Chester Copperpot]

I love living rent free in your minds.

It's entertaining.
