40 pulls later and she is alive. (with proof)

Just put a shot of premix down the plug holes!!! Only take 1 or 2 pulls!! No need for starting fluid!!

That would be the loud *** Bender can that you sold me. lol. Also I took it out for a rip around my yard and the "clunk clunk" is GONE. It was the belt after all.

I know that premix is the better option but I didn`t have any gas/oil on hand so had to settle for starting fluid.
 
I pull off the gas cap and blow into it, starts in like 5 pulls or so. just got both my viper and the wifes sxr started that way, works great

how do you blow into the gas tank and pull it over? thats very interesting and a good example of an unknown talent!!! j/k but i had to
 
I am basically priming it, forces gas into the carbs and pow, it fires. and yes, I am SUPREMELY talented. :)
 
How much damage will starting fluid do? I had to use a bit to get my SRX going this year.....

starting fluid will dry things out because it does not contain any lubricants like a gas/oil mixture obviously does

Don't use much. Starting fluid basicly washes ALL the oil off the cylinders and pistons. The new stuff has a little lube in it but it still is no replacement for 2 stroke oil !
 
P.S. When I use this stuff I spray it through the Airbox, not down the plug hole directly onto the piston. Not that I'm indorsing using starting fluid with 2-Stroke engines either way, but I think spraying it through the airbox is the safer way to go about it.

I keep a squeeze bottle with some premix in the shop. Use it on all kinds of small engines on the farm not just sleds. Makes it easy to put a little squirt without too much mess.
