Don't let the exhaust scare ya, my old man would make Artcic-Poos, Ski-Cats and tons of other Frankensleds. The amount of cans I saw get hacked, reshaped or repurposed was enough to give a fella ideas for life on how to make stuff work🤙
Worked at a place driving mini buses and there was a 1986 Chevy that had the grill break out so we made a old Ford Ranger grill fit just to make it look better and then we called it a Chevord.
Me and my dad were gonna take a 1980s ski doo and put like a 2015 arctic cat 450cc engine and it’s track on it but the track was too wide and we got rid of them before we could get to it because we were gonna wait the year out and do it next fall but they were gone and there wasn’t snow that year
Dude you scored a 10 in my opinion! I have a 583 mxz i payed 500 for that had a faulty gas cap and only water in tank and carbs. A quick cleaning and boom weve got a minty running sled! Allways love to see great deals...btw. he knew it wasnt running before he talked to you i think
A lot of times it is simple things that fixes these machines. Sometimes I have seen throttle cable being loose. I also tell people to buy low mileage machines from people in a city that don’t ride a lot. We can ride to mountains or flatland trails right from our house.
I have Been watching you for 5 years.I remember so many great videos with that 700.I will admit I have not been subscribed to you for 5 years because I did not have an account. Keep up the good work
If you want to take a trip to Mass right now there is a ski doo 583 with reverse that runs on fluid for $150 on marketplace. About an hour 30 away from me, I just don’t have time to take a ride.
I got a running 97 AC EXT 600 triple for $400. Had a gallon of water in the gas tank, disgusting carbs, and a couple loose nuts/bolts. But she cleaned up nice, runs strong, and lifts the skis on every pull.
Just bought a 00 mxz 700 that was "locked up". Drove home and it was not locked anymore. I think it bouncing on trailer freed it up. Upon further investigation the oil line that hooks to the pump was melted and oil leaked out. I replaced the line and it has great compression and runs excellent. I couldn't believe my luck.
I don't however agree with this guy and other YTers filming the buying process. I think it influences the haggling process and puts the seller in an awkward position. I've watched this dude, 2vintage (punk kid) etc film a buy and it's cringe. Yes, they agree to it. I bet they regret it shortly after.
Gotta give you an 11 because I was sure it wasn't going to be the regulator but in hindsight it makes sense because assuming it's shorted out, that prevented the MPEM from getting power.
Have a 2000 Ski Doo MXZ 600 that I got for free from my friend. Very good condition, but I had an issue with it when it started blowing the headlamp bulbs (Low beams would blow, but high beams would be fine). Replaced the voltage regulator and it solved the issue. They're great snowmobiles.
Replace all the bulbs now before the regulator gets burned up again! They need to see some electrical load! This sled has great bones, even some Rez rear shocks! I think you should do a full restore on this sled and make it look brand new. Would be a great change for your channel. Where this sled is so nice it won’t cost a lot just elbow grease !
Nice deal. I bought an ‘89 Yamaha Phazer with 1750 miles, same issue. Absolute cream puff. Found the coil had a spliced wire. Re-did the connection and BINGO.
Please... don't stop doing what your doing man👍👍👍 keep your faith keep grinding, Great things will come✝️ much love from your fellow motor loving brother😎
New subscriber , Iv'e seen a few of your videos , but just picked up a 96 mxz 583 for our kid , runs perfect but has these nasty I think ice cleats on the skis , things are like 6" long by 4" high .. dig in to everything , but 1,000 witch is dam good for the shape and covid pricing
Love it. I just picked up a 97 mxz670 on auction for $200 a few weeks ago. Had to rebuild the recoil and it pulls really really hard. I was told they all do! So I put in some fresh gogo juice. Third pull she was rumbling and purring. It was smoking like the devils boxers but settled down soon enough. But go figure. February in the northeast and the snow just melted away!!! Ugh
A lot of people don't know how things work, 20 years ago I pulled a $1500 computer out of the trash and fixed it with $5 heatsink paste. my friends small one cylinder engine on a bicycle needed a magneto, snowmobile my issue was the voltage regulator as well as starter solenoid. Feel like if its electrical people don't know what to do.
Take the voltage regulator that you took out of the MXZ 600 you got for 400 bucks put it in the oven at 350 for 10 minutes just enough to get it hot and I bet you if you put it back in the sled it will work again the epoxy breaks around the edges and let's moisture in them saved a lot cdi's this way cheers
'Score' as someone who grew up riding Sleds. I can certainly appreciate a good find. Unfortunately where I live. We just don't get enough Snow to ride. Sleds cost Money & two weeks out of the Year, just isn't worth it.
crazy how a $50ish part cost that guy $600 lol, nice find! i got a 97 yamaha vmax 600 xlt for $200 because the guy was in the same situation, the kill switch was stuck on and gave no spark, ez fix!
I love these sleds I have a 99 MXZ 700 looks just like your black one it's very reliable looking for an exhaust like what's on that yellow one you just got where's the best place to get one
My best deal was last year I bought a non running 2005 gsx 600 with 500 miles on it and a mint 2005 panther 570 and a enclosed 2 place for a total of 3700 last year. Sold the gsx for 3900 and the trailer for 4k and the panther for 2500. Made out like a bandit and I ended up buying a brand new 8.5 x 24 vnose enclosed trailer for 11k with that money and i was offered 20k for it the other day best deal ever.
Found a 1988 Chevy 1500 for $500 v6 154,000 miles on it they couldn’t get it to run changed fuel filter and it ran like a champ for six years all the way up to 370,000 miles before tranny and motor let go
Great video! Just a quick question, how do you check the spark plug wire with a multimeter? Which setting should it be on and what would be a good range and what would be bad? (Sorry if i made any grammar mistakes, english isnt my first language)
Ohm meter setting. Search up videos on how exactly to do it. There should be many that breaks down how to go through the entire electrical system looking for problems
I want to hear your best facebook marketplace (or craigslist) deals in the comments!! I'll choose the best.
A brand 2007 new yamaha apex for 1500$ and it runs pretty good
I Traded a yz85 for a ktm250sx (both 2 stroke dirtbikes)
I sold a 92 klr 650 on Craigslist list for 750, I bought it for 900 and I owned it for 16 years
bought a yamaha dt from a buddy for 180bucks and sold it a week later without a dollar spent on it for 900 bucks
Bought a 2003 Ski doo 1000 GT four stroke sled last year! 6,200 miles for $1000 🎉

It's arctic. Not artic, maybe If you're like 3 or 4 yes old ok.. but cmon
Me and my dad were gonna take a 1980s ski doo and put like a 2015 arctic cat 450cc engine and it’s track on it but the track was too wide and we got rid of them before we could get to it because we were gonna wait the year out and do it next fall but they were gone and there wasn’t snow that year
I learn a lot just from watching you fix sleds.
I could watch these all day
Dude you scored a 10 in my opinion! I have a 583 mxz i payed 500 for that had a faulty gas cap and only water in tank and carbs. A quick cleaning and boom weve got a minty running sled! Allways love to see great deals...btw. he knew it wasnt running before he talked to you i think
I bought an “01 thundercat for 800$ he told me the engine was seized, went home put new batteries spark plugs in it and she fired right up😂😂
A lot of times it is simple things that fixes these machines. Sometimes I have seen throttle cable being loose. I also tell people to buy low mileage machines from people in a city that don’t ride a lot. We can ride to mountains or flatland trails right from our house.
Gotta love seeing Jeremy so happy👌
I always click when I see Jeremy upload a new video. Much love brother 🙏 need to come to Michigan and ride the trails 1 day
I have Been watching you for 5 years.I remember so many great videos with that 700.I will admit I have not been subscribed to you for 5 years because I did not have an account. Keep up the good work
Awesome sled and great find for that price! Let’s see a riding video with it now!!
Nice sleuthing with the electrical gremlins! Nice when you have spare parts that you can swap with on the spot. P.S. that looks like an MBRP can.
Am I the only one who loves what you are doing with the channel Now. Very interesting and good pace.
That aftermarket can sounds GOOD! Nice crackle & rumble. I was hoping you show us a quick test ride, crack the throttle & let her scream
Man I've been watching you for a long time now. Since you were riding the mxz 700. Happy you got a steal of a deal and have a great day. 👍
If you want to take a trip to Mass right now there is a ski doo 583 with reverse that runs on fluid for $150 on marketplace. About an hour 30 away from me, I just don’t have time to take a ride.
Definitely 10 out of 10!! Nice find, good job 👍🏻
That was an absolute steal. And don't do anything with the exhaust it sounds amazing👌👍
I got a running 97 AC EXT 600 triple for $400. Had a gallon of water in the gas tank, disgusting carbs, and a couple loose nuts/bolts. But she cleaned up nice, runs strong, and lifts the skis on every pull.
Great job can’t wait to see you riding it.
Yes he is back!!!!!!!!!!!! Missed this channel
That's awesome. My dad and I got an artic cat for 400 bucks and it just needed a carb clean
Just bought a 00 mxz 700 that was "locked up". Drove home and it was not locked anymore. I think it bouncing on trailer freed it up. Upon further investigation the oil line that hooks to the pump was melted and oil leaked out. I replaced the line and it has great compression and runs excellent. I couldn't believe my luck.
Awesome deal definitely a 10 Happy New Year thank you for all your great videos and hopefully many more to come
Fellow vermonter here! Maybe when we get snow you could set a ride up would love to do a meet and great/riding day!
Jeremy I think your negotiation skills saved you, even if you didnt get it running you couldve easily parted it out for sure.
I don't however agree with this guy and other YTers filming the buying process. I think it influences the haggling process and puts the seller in an awkward position. I've watched this dude, 2vintage (punk kid) etc film a buy and it's cringe.
Yes, they agree to it. I bet they regret it shortly after.
Gotta give you an 11 because I was sure it wasn't going to be the regulator but in hindsight it makes sense because assuming it's shorted out, that prevented the MPEM from getting power.
In Michigan that deal is a 10! Keep it up bro !!
Have a 2000 Ski Doo MXZ 600 that I got for free from my friend. Very good condition, but I had an issue with it when it started blowing the headlamp bulbs (Low beams would blow, but high beams would be fine). Replaced the voltage regulator and it solved the issue. They're great snowmobiles.
Good to see you back Jeremy. Need anymore cdn coffee. 🤣
U should totally do a revival video on ur mxz 700 I bet all the people would love to see that and bring the ol girl back to her former glory
That can is a MBRP race can! Had one, they didnt stamp on their old cans, but its infact an mbrp can
That's a mbrp silencer good brand I'm sure it's gonna be super loud
Replace all the bulbs now before the regulator gets burned up again! They need to see some electrical load!
This sled has great bones, even some Rez rear shocks! I think you should do a full restore on this sled and make it look brand new. Would be a great change for your channel. Where this sled is so nice it won’t cost a lot just elbow grease !
I had to clean my carburetor in my sled and I got it running about 2 weeks ago and I went for one rip and now we have no snow. This winter sucks
Great video and communication 10
Nice deal. I bought an ‘89 Yamaha Phazer with 1750 miles, same issue. Absolute cream puff. Found the coil had a spliced wire. Re-did the connection and BINGO.
That was a steal for the price and extras that came with it.
I love watching your video and learn so much.
Thats a steal jeremy!! Hope to see you ride it soon!
that's such a good deal! love the older MXZs so glad you got one!
Please... don't stop doing what your doing man👍👍👍 keep your faith keep grinding, Great things will come✝️ much love from your fellow motor loving brother😎
That can is a mbrp race can, I had the same on mine, in that time they didn’t stamp them
New subscriber , Iv'e seen a few of your videos , but just picked up a 96 mxz 583 for our kid , runs perfect but has these nasty I think ice cleats on the skis , things are like 6" long by 4" high .. dig in to everything , but 1,000 witch is dam good for the shape and covid pricing
Love it. I just picked up a 97 mxz670 on auction for $200 a few weeks ago. Had to rebuild the recoil and it pulls really really hard. I was told they all do! So I put in some fresh gogo juice. Third pull she was rumbling and purring. It was smoking like the devils boxers but settled down soon enough.
But go figure. February in the northeast and the snow just melted away!!! Ugh
Seems like a 10 to me man. I would imagine that there are a lot of sleds that have died an early death from such simple issues.
In my area we don’t get too much snow so running snowmobiles are like 250 bucks. We get enough snow that they’re still fun a few months a year
Well done!! Love these older MXZs
Hello I love ur videos keep em coming
A lot of people don't know how things work, 20 years ago I pulled a $1500 computer out of the trash and fixed it with $5 heatsink paste. my friends small one cylinder engine on a bicycle needed a magneto, snowmobile my issue was the voltage regulator as well as starter solenoid. Feel like if its electrical people don't know what to do.
Love the videos and you should do a sled tour
Good price for that sled. Lots of parts available for these sleds! I Just restored a 2002 mxz 600 and they awesome sleds.
10 can't beat that deal man. Love it. Nice sled.
I bought a 2010 Polaris IQ 800 for 500$ with no compression on mag cylinder. Have it up and running for a cost to me of 300$. So total cost 800.00
Damn, that's a good deal. Some people only have deep pockets and would rather buy new when something goes wrong. Their loss.....your gain
Take the voltage regulator that you took out of the MXZ 600 you got for 400 bucks put it in the oven at 350 for 10 minutes just enough to get it hot and I bet you if you put it back in the sled it will work again the epoxy breaks around the edges and let's moisture in them saved a lot cdi's this way cheers
I would love to see a 94 1st gen summit on this channel
'Score' as someone who grew up riding Sleds. I can certainly appreciate a good find. Unfortunately where I live. We just don't get enough Snow to ride. Sleds cost Money & two weeks out of the Year, just isn't worth it.
10.. You really make me miss living in Maine.
Jeremy are you planning on working on the old mxz 700 or you’ve given up on it because to many issues?
u stole that sled..lol... nice.. i live in maine and never get deals like that..!! great find.. keep the videos coming...!! i enjoy them..!
That exhaust is fine sounds great like that
I’m not kidding I learned a ton from this video
Up here in where I'm at in Canada that's 1200 sled not running just for parts hell of a deal
It’s my favorite snowmobile I’ll been looking for one for a long time now
Great find! Great youngster sled for some teen.
crazy how a $50ish part cost that guy $600 lol, nice find! i got a 97 yamaha vmax 600 xlt for $200 because the guy was in the same situation, the kill switch was stuck on and gave no spark, ez fix!
FYI it wasn’t your voltage regulator it was a bad connection at the main plug
Exhaust sounds awesome
I love these sleds I have a 99 MXZ 700 looks just like your black one it's very reliable looking for an exhaust like what's on that yellow one you just got where's the best place to get one
Jeremy, where did you learn how to work on snowmobiles and do you recommend trade schools like universal technical institute?
I loved the og mxz 700 miss the old girl. Would love to see a late 90s arctic cat zl 500/600/700
Watching this makes me miss my 01 mxz 700
The rotax 600/700 are such good engines.
9.5 what a deal. That sled looks mint
Great vid man! But that poor 700, if your crank wasn’t shot before it is now😭
Looks really clean in grate shape id like to see it go up against my 1998 yamaha vmax xtc 700 triple
This was peak JR content. Just missing microwave burritos 😂
Just got a 98 Polaris sportsman 500 for 500$ new carburetor, fuel pump, battery and voltage regulator shes good as new !!
Nice, glad you got it running so quick! Should send the poor guy a bit more cash though since you low-balled him. 😉😁
Love the sled absolutely beautiful and having 3 mxz is amazing, keep all of them !!
I traded 2 tons of wood pellets for a 98 pantera triple 800cc 2up
where do you find all of these sleds in the woods? and its 10/10 for sure
10/10 love the new edition to the sled collection
Good troubleshooting and great deal for 400!
That’s a steal you got that sled for. Great deal
Keep the can! It was made for it sounds good 👍
Definitely a 10!! Nice score!
I doing the same thing they are crazy excited but I'll do anything for a sled like that
My best deal was last year I bought a non running 2005 gsx 600 with 500 miles on it and a mint 2005 panther 570 and a enclosed 2 place for a total of 3700 last year. Sold the gsx for 3900 and the trailer for 4k and the panther for 2500. Made out like a bandit and I ended up buying a brand new 8.5 x 24 vnose enclosed trailer for 11k with that money and i was offered 20k for it the other day best deal ever.
Found a 1988 Chevy 1500 for $500 v6 154,000 miles on it they couldn’t get it to run changed fuel filter and it ran like a champ for six years all the way up to 370,000 miles before tranny and motor let go
I would give it 6, I would have given it 9 but it's a skidoo. I bought a 95 580ext mountain cat for 125.00 fixed the fuel pump for free. Ran great.
What’s your issue with the can? And scored a 2001 Ski Doo summit 800 with 2064mi, Simmons skis, MBRP can for $1000
Looks like a sno stuff rumble pack I'd leave it on there sounds good
I miss that black MXZ
I need more videos of the viper🙏🏻🙏🏻
The only difference with the 1999s vs newer zx chassi ski doos is the engine castings an bolt sizes .
I'll Give you a 9. It did require a part. Haha. Good Deal Jeremy!
Good deal! I live in Ontario, Canada and non running sleds go for $1000 + here!
I live in ontario too and it’s so infuriating seeing a sled for sale for 1500 and u read description and it’s blown and bent
Love my 2002 mxz's. 700 and 600.
If it has a teither switch check that
Great video! Just a quick question, how do you check the spark plug wire with a multimeter? Which setting should it be on and what would be a good range and what would be bad?

@@SnowPiercer1975 thanks 👍
When are you going to get the Yamaha Bravo running good?
