I was thinking about that as I was cleaning them. Come to find out there is no fuel shutoff on the 500. Looked into it. Cant even buy one for that sled. Don't get it. Some of them had one that year, some didn't. Of course I could always rig something up. Wouldn't be that hard to do. I wonder if just pulling the plug out of the bottom of the float pan would work? Not sure.
It's a toss up between Ice Fishing or Snowmobiling this weekend.
