COLD BEER Posted March 14, 2016 Report Share Posted March 14, 2016 We just finished a great 4 day ride in the Abitibi area. On day three we were heading south on 93 between Label-sure-Quevillon and Senetterre, we stopped at the warming hut and noticed coolant leaking from the front cooler on one of the sleds. We tipped the sled on its side and noticed a 1/4 inch size hole were a stud had punctured the front cooler. After attempting to plug the leak with a screw we decided to tow the sled to Senneterre. When we arrived in Senneterre we rode to the Napa store and purchased 1gallon of anti freeze, a wire brush and a product called Tech Steel. We wire brushed the area and applied the Tech Steel which was like putty and hardened in 1 hour. We had lunch, filled the sled with anti freeze and there was no leak. We rode the sled for the rest of the trip with no leak. I will be carrying this product with me from now on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Florida Snowman Posted March 14, 2016 Report Share Posted March 14, 2016 Good work guys! I once was leaking the green blood & ended up on the black trail from Lac Edouard. Sounds like you had a great run. Abitibi is the place for me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
