Winterizing 7119 question


Kenh

Recommended Posts

I just realized my new to me 7119 does not have any type of carb heater/shield of any kind. Beings the carb sets on top of the motor, maybe I don't really need any type of shielding or carb warmer.

I guess I'm just used to the old 7116 and it's shield.

Sim/Kohler had a winterizing kit for the KTs. It was a snorkel that pull air to the carb off from the right side exhaust manifold.

What I do with my 917 is put a magnetic sign over the hood vents. This keeps the heat in under the hood, and it keeps the snow out of the engine compartment.

Thank your for the info. I guess I kind of already knew the answer, I just needed someone to hold my hand an tell me it's OK.^:D Actually I wanted to know before the "big one" hits and I find out the hard way.

Thanks again!!

      Site programming updates were made 3/23/2024. As a result some things have changed including dues payment options. We will continue maintenance and work with technicians to regain credit card payment option and clear up minor challenges. On positive it appears attaching pictures is now easier. Good day. Gene
