trail once a year for access in the winter time for snowmobiling. So I'd like to share a few of that trip.
 
Got some snow so decided to clear the driveway. First start in 6 months.

Has anyone seen this? I would like to see the mods and build pictures for this unit!
It is a Bombardier R-18 with a modified 350ci engine. Hope the link work, I'm not that familiar with Facebook and was forwarded this item.

Okay that didn't work ....
It might be in Quebec ...
 
While waiting for the right time for another Tucker run, it was time to check the other track machine.
Good thing I checked. Found bad bearings. Ordered 100 new bearings.
That leaves 8 spare bearings.

Makes me wonder how the new rubber style Tucker track idlers are built? I thought these ones would be pretty good. But better to check than assume anything.
 
Took my Tucker out to the mountains on Wednesday and back to the truck on Sunday. I take the Tucker in 22 kms and leave it there and go the rest of the way by snowmobile as the trail past that point is not frozen in good enough yet.
After sitting for 5 days at -10c the Tucker started okay and headed back to the truck and trailer. I had to boost my truck with the Tucker though.

I noticed the air/fuel was hunting a bit in the Tucker so I think it was the snow dust melting and getting the air filter wet. I don’t think a paper filter like I have is the best idea.

I’m open to suggestions on what other people have for air filter ideas.

I have a good 360 from a 1977 Dodge van. If I get time this summer it would work great in the Tucker. We’ll see.
 
Thanks to President Trump we have lower fuel prices, the Digital Sales Tax is gone and our Woketards are not making so much noise anymore. Even the “glorious” EV mandate is on the way out. Generally things are getting better, although there isn’t much national pride.
Canada is governed by a little piece of land just across the USA border at Michigan, and Trump has their attention now.
People talk about Canada not being the 51st State, but Canada already is being shown by Trump that Canada is the 51st State of the USA. The dismantling of Canada by our eastern elites accelerated over the last 15 years and now Canada has virtually no unique identity, other than the 51st State.
Trump has done great things for the ordinary citizens of Canada by pushing our elite off their tax, control and spend agendas.
Showing our nasty elite the way it is, has been a breath of fresh air from the slide into full Communism that was inevitable.
All thanks to one man’s vision and determination. Canadians are lucky the USA has a great president for us little people.
Thank you President Trump and happy holiday.

My son sent me this T shirt he bought for me in New York. I like it.
