could it be a good snow build up solution?? (Nytro)

[snefokk]

could this be a fix, a small pipe from the exhaust that blows about 5%(more or less) of totall under the frame ,with another alu plate under the stud protektor with some small holes on the side to let the exhaust out.
This will give enough heat to melt the snow and ice,but will do no harm to the sled.

Anyone??????
Ill try to make this if i get a second muffler to drill a hole in and to weld the pipe to......

i think this fix will save a lot of weight

i used a 12oz. can of pam cooking spray and it cut down the ice by 60%. and what was left came out rly easy. put it in when the sled is in a warm area. it will stink a lil bit at first.

Why don't you just run the coolant through the tunnel protectors??!?

I like your idea. Maybe we could run two more up to the handle bars to assist with the poor hand warmers.

I doused my tunnel with Pam before I left for the Northwoods Christmas day. Freezing cold up North for the week, when I came home Sunday the 4th I had a chunk of ice stuck to my tunnel large enough to sink the Titanic! Maybe it works for day trips when you can pull your sled in your garage after a day or two of riding, but it didn't work for my trip?

solution to ice build up

Getting as much heat out of the tunnel is the key. I believe you'll see exhaust out of the tunnel like the sno cross sleds.....

Couldnt agree more, I dont have a warm garage to pull my sled in every night,and its a SNOWmobile, it stands outside all the time, so if this fix would do the trick, ill would be verry
