Jay Buckley from Autolite Spark Plugs, in Michigan, joins Ric and Zen to talk about his exciting new product, a special spark plug that offers improved performance for small engines like snowmobiles, ATV's, boats, Sea-Doos, and motorcycles. Then we try to hook up with the Michcanska Trekkers on their way to Alaska, and later we enjoy the humour of the Bob &#38; Tom Comedy Show. Finally we talk about eating the fish Ric caught last week in Higgins lake, and listen to Ric extol the virtues of Zen Talk, explaining exactly why Autolite Spark Plugs should start sponsoring this podcast. The music featured is Ricky Nelson. Enjoy. </p> <p><a href="http://zenwaiter.podomatic.com/entry/2010-03-07T11_01_42-08_00" rel="nofollow">http://zenwaiter.podomatic.com/entry/2010-03-07T11_01_42-08_00</a> </p> http://snowmobileforums.netsleds.com/topic.php?id=556#post-5286 Tue, 16 Feb 2010 17:33:21 +0000 sparticase 5286@http://snowmobileforums.netsleds.com/ <p>It's my turn to wonder where everyone is at. </p> http://snowmobileforums.netsleds.com/topic.php?id=550#post-5285 Sun, 14 Feb 2010 00:17:17 +0000 sparticase 5285@http://snowmobileforums.netsleds.com/ <p>I'll go look at that post. </p> http://snowmobileforums.netsleds.com/topic.php?id=550#post-5284 Sat, 06 Feb 2010 05:52:45 +0000 only80hp 5284@http://snowmobileforums.netsleds.com/ <p>Look at the Topic (Risers) and you will see them </p> http://snowmobileforums.netsleds.com/topic.php?id=550#post-5283 Sat, 06 Feb 2010 05:50:08 +0000 only80hp 5283@http://snowmobileforums.netsleds.com/ <p>As a matter of fact I do, If i can remember how to post them I will </p> http://snowmobileforums.netsleds.com/topic.php?id=550#post-5282 Wed, 03 Feb 2010 14:03:23 +0000 sparticase 5282@http://snowmobileforums.netsleds.com/ <p>did you have some pics of them risers, 80hp? </p> http://snowmobileforums.netsleds.com/topic.php?id=556#post-5281 Wed, 03 Feb 2010 14:01:14 +0000 sparticase 5281@http://snowmobileforums.netsleds.com/ <p>how's your battle going? </p> http://snowmobileforums.netsleds.com/topic.php?id=556#post-5280 Wed, 03 Feb 2010 14:00:44 +0000 sparticase 5280@http://snowmobileforums.netsleds.com/ <p>yeah, were here, just got a lot of irons in the fire. </p> http://snowmobileforums.netsleds.com/topic.php?id=554#post-5279 Wed, 03 Feb 2010 13:59:46 +0000 sparticase 5279@http://snowmobileforums.netsleds.com/ <p>I think Ski-Doo was the brand that pushed the reed valve name, is it a ski-doo your riding?<br /> The engine is equipped with a 'valve' or mechanism that opens once the motor reaches mid to top end of its rpm's. the higher rpms of a 2 stroke create a suction of fuel in the crankcase and a higher pressure at the exhaust, the motor is trying to get more fuel and get rid of what it's already used, this starts to eat up power from the motor. this valve is pressure controled kind of like a vacuum system, once the pressure in the cylinder gets high enough it pushes out this valve and the exhaust can leave through this valve as well as the exhaust port simultaneous. now that the used air/fuel is leaving faster and more efficient, the motor can suck more fuel and faster, this increases power in the motor and a more efficient burn.<br /> rpm's increase raising pressure in cylinder, the valve opens according to pressure in cylinder, more exhaust is allowed to leave cylinder with valve open leaving more room in cylinder which allows cylinder to more easily induct fuel into cylinder (its also more fuel than without the valve anyhow), the motor can get more fuel and do it easier.<br /> its a long explanation, read through it and feel free to ask any questions. happy to clarify any mess ups. </p> http://snowmobileforums.netsleds.com/topic.php?id=556#post-5277 Sun, 10 Jan 2010 01:27:17 +0000 only80hp 5277@http://snowmobileforums.netsleds.com/ <p>Hello, Where the hell is everyone.

Today it is -5C and we have had snow on the ground for a week. I am working my butt off, making new radio episodes every week. I need more guests to interview. I would like to do a Vermont Show, so if you know a good storyteller from Vermont, please send me his/her email. Also, I would appreciate some feedback on my efforts. I am trying hard to make a snowmobile weekly show for us snowmobilers, but I need help. Please visit me at <a href="http://www.zenwaiter.podomatic.com">www.zenwaiter.podomatic.com</a>. Got some ideas to make the show better? I would also like to have one of the admins from NetSleds on the show next Saturday - can you send me the name and e-mail of a good one. I want to have an admin talk about how people should behave on a snowmobile Board, and about some of the problems they encounter. Thanks. zw"<br /> <img src="http://zenwaiter.podomatic.com/mymedia/thumb/1081268/460%3E_2251568.jpg"> </p> http://snowmobileforums.netsleds.com/topic.php?id=552#post-5253 Sun, 11 Oct 2009 15:14:04 +0000 hOoLiGaN 5253@http://snowmobileforums.netsleds.com/ <p>ya but it was on my 4-wheeler </p>
