As long as you don't sink it the water does not effect the sled. If you do sink it the water will get into your engine. How bad depends on how quick you shut it off and whether or not someone tries to start it while it is still sunk. The guy who owns the sled came into the water and pulled the starter while it was still submerged until it would not crank anymore

We had to pull the plugs and crank it to get the water out of the cylinders. We then let it sit overnight. When we got up the next day we poured some gas into the cylinders before cranking it. Once it started trying to start we used the ether continuously until the engine started picking up fuel.

It was still fun

Sounds like it! We're roasting a pig at the lake this weekend, rain or no rain. It's been raining just about every day for the last 2 1/2 weeks!

Snowmobiles in Wendover? The weather must be changing quickly there. Should of poured some oil in the cylinders because I have seem rust start to develop over night.

I have loved this weather. Great temps. Vici & I are planning on joining some friends at the lake this Saturday rain or shine also.

We are headed to beach 2, we are not going out until around 5pm. There should be a large group friends from Fernley, Fallon, Silver Springs, who knows where else.

Good evening Nevada. Had a great day no rain YET. Wanted to get our Blazer front side windows tinted today but can not find anyone to do it. Fallon Glass said Friday, Trick-Up Trucks is closed until next week or so. So I guess I'll take it to Fallon Glass. Trick Up just did our Jeep & did a good job & I told him I wanted the Blazer done this week & he never said he would be closed or I would of had him do the Blazer last week.
Had a great time at the Lake on Saturday. A little rain but great fellowship & food.

Yea, I figured if I said anything it would rain. Such power I have, ha,ha.
Went to the doctor today & was cleared to do anything I wish. I'm healed up. I was told I could ride my motorcycle. My wife wouldn't let me ride until the doctor cleared me. So today I fired up my Suzuki SV650S & took off to my buddies house in Hawthorne. Great ride.
I had to take my Blazer yesterday to Reno to get the windows tinted. All Season Tinting did it for $80 with high performance tint. I made an appointment for 2pm they had it finished by 2:40pm we drove home.
I went back to make the appointment with Fallon Glass yesterday & they told me they couldn't do it on Friday. I was so pissed off. I need a windshield for the Blazer so I talked to Fast Glass in Fallon & they quoted me $50 less than Fallon Glass. So Fallon Glass lost a customer.

That's too bad, they are nice people. I won't use Fast Glass on principle. Quit making it rain, I need my lawn mowed!
