NOT A LUXURY — Sometimes, snowmobiles are far from luxuries. During last winter's blizzard, they
became a necessity for many people and it was the only way of travel over blocked roads and streets.
Snowmobilers ran errands of mercy that prevented hardships for many, Farmers also find that
snowmobiles are an important piece of equipment around the farm during winter, Pictured above is a
snowmobiler heading aking Exeter's Main St. in the blizzard of '71. T-A photo

Before a new snowmobile can
perform at its best, it requires
proper conditioning. Engineers
report that careless break-in of a
new engine is one of the leading
causes of snowmobile problems.
Ten to 15 hours of operation at
part-throttle is the key to good
performance thereafter.
Snowmobile operators who run
their brand new machines at full-
throttle run the risk of damaging
engines.
A second cause of snowmobile
engine problems, particularly in
the ignition system, is using the
wrong spark plug heat range.
However, specialized kinds of
operation may dictate using
specially-designed spark plugs.
For example, a snowmobile
that's mostly operated at full-
throttle, such as racing, needs a
spark plug of a colder heat range
to withstand higher operating
temperatures. A snowmobile
that's run at lower speeds, such
as trail riding, needs a plug of
hotter heat range to prevent
premature plug fouling.
For machines running in a
variety of conditions standard-
design plugs are recommended.
Other tips for efficient
operation of snowmobile engines
include making certain fuel and
lubricant are mixed thoroughly
and correctly.
Both fuel and oil should be of
the quality the manufacturer
recommends for the engine.
Mixing ratios of oil to fuel
should be followed exactly. When
mixing the elements, make
certain they are warm. The
mixing should be done in a
separate container, and then
poured into the vehicle's fuel
tank. Placing unmixed fuel and
oil directly into the tank is an
invitation to trouble.
Before operating your
snowmobile this winter, have
your dealer perform the
following basic maintenance:
1. Inspect the track for proper
tension.
