Snowdog thoughts

[Lamb Chops]

I also bought a Snowdog last month. I haven't been out on the ice with it yet but it hauled my buddy and I around turkey hunting last week and it had plenty of power.  I love it but it's been hard to start. It usually takes me 3-4 tries or more when its cold before it starts.  I was wondering if that's normal for that 13.5 hp Brigs & Stratton?  How many ties does it take you guys to start your Snowdog? 

It’s that junk OEM Russian spark plug. Replace it ASAP with the NGK. Helped mine a lot. I’ve also read replacing the oil with 5-30w synthetic helps too. I’m still on the factory oil. The machine really likes full choke. I also turn the fuel tank off when not in use.

Thanks for the tips.  I'll give it a try!
