I has a 1989 cougar, mine was way nicer and the motor was really clean and it ran good. The only issue mine had was a slight bogging.

Awesome! This one had a rough life it looks like. I just started it today after being in storage 8 months and fired up on first pull. Primer button is a game changer. Think you had an issue with jet size?

That brake button just lets power flow to the light to let others behind u know ur braking.serously doubt it has to be held to start,like a safety measure on atvs it has a lever on most old sleds to set brake in park on older rigs.most sleds dont move from clutchs till 3grand.snooky pa.

Another unusual to me switch. Usually when you apply the lever it presses the switch. At least from what I’ve experienced

Correct it makes the electrical connect to ur rear brakelight that small box on left top of handlebars has dot-3brake fluid inside that flows down a cable sorta tube to brake calipers and rotor giving you braking ability.there is a bleeder screw at top of calipers.if fluid is old dirty,or just non exsistent.loosen bleeder,fill box with fresh and flush out once or twice.then tighten,refill,bleed out any air.then ur brakes should be good this season,happy sleding,snooky

Just unplug switches to ck for spark. Unplug ignition switch...should spark now if bad. Same with all the other switches. I'm betting on external coil or exiter coil under the flywheel. I was a snowmobile service tech 42 yrs. ....now retired.

You don't have to ground both plugs at the same time to check for spark. You can do them one at a time.
