I'm supposed to be changing the oil on our ATV's but it is cold and rainy so I thought I would start a few new posts instead :lol: If any one answers any of these I might just run out of time to go and lay on the cold garage floor 8)
BTW I did the EHM yesterday and I think I may have a solution to the freeze up problem. First I used black hose to help retain more heat. Then I put a metal end on the hose and made a holder bolted to the bell housing so that the hose is routed close to the block. The engine/bell housing/transmission heat up fairly quickly, and transfer the heat to the metal end, so even if the end were to freeze up over night it would melt as fast as the engine warms up. It has not been cold enough to test yet, so what do you think?
