blown engine

[Buffer]

finally got around to putting the engine back in and it seems to run good although we have no snow so just up on a stand.the temp is running at 154 F idling on a stand, is that too hot or because there is no snow to cool it

I wouldn’t let it get any hotter. Yes lack of snow and it will just keep going up. Like a outboard running out of water. I’d only run it up to 125-130 just above t-stat opening temp and shut it down. Let it completely cool down

Thanks xcassault, thats kind of what i figured, it wasnt getting any warmer than that after about 3 min since reaching that temp

Again no snow till beginning of feb but on a good note this engine is still holding together. Its taken a bit to get used to riding compared to my old sled but its pretty impressive to ride. Lots of power and good in the deep snow, good for sidehilling and climbing. I think i will keep this one for a couple years
