Re: John Deere spitfire 9/82

Anywhere from $0 to $1200, depending on condition, how complete it is, and location. Track condition is a big one as the tracks for these are getting scarce.

Re: Warning 400brian is a poser!

You're right - there was at least one forum before this one, there may have been more then one. The original provider had a failure and we lost everything on it. Nice to hear from you Greg! All the "OGs" you shouted out are still around in the newer Facebook groups too, even Grumpy! Greg, ...

2024 Bass Fishing

Since Brian did a fishing post I'll put up a new one too with some highlights. I've been bass fishing more and more including with a local tournament club. I've fished in PA, NJ, and NY this year. Some of these are on my Bass Tracker 170, others are on the back of someone else's boat with the club. ...

Re: Fly Fishing and tying

Have tied for 20 years. Have a ton of supplies and materials that I have inherited from other family members and friends. Let me know if you ever need anything! Thank you - it's been a while since I did any tying, and I have not trout fished at all this year. I'm more focused on bass. I still have ...

Re: 1978 liquifire 340

Like Dan said there's no way to say how many are still around. I don't feel like the 340 version gets "saved" as much as the 440 unless of course it's a Cross Country version.

Try doing a search, I believe this has been discussed before between Peter (That Girl Racing) and Joe Rainville.

Re: 80-83 liquifire

No - when you remove oil injection on a Liquifire, you loose crankshaft lubrication as it has lines that go to the crank bearings.

Re: John Deere 600

Welcome Cooper,
None of the serial numbers start with 0, the first year of sleds stared with 11,000, so they may have mis-read the first digit. The engines are slightly different models, and there were only minor updates between them.

Re: Alternative Production Fire Series Tracks - AM54969, AM54331, AM55269.

Folks, I have not heard from Gary in a while but I would guess the chance of this going through is slim to none with the state of manufacturing and cost since COVID. If it did go through, I bet it's double the price originally suggested.

Re: Only one spark per revolution

TB340a is the free air engine used in the JD Spitfire & Snowfire and also the Kawasaki Drifter F/A. With the CDI/coil combo I believe it may be the Deere version. Deere's last model year was 1984, and I know no other snowmobiles used that engine after that as it was the last free air snowmobile ...
