So I'm getting ready to take on a project and need some suggestions/what am i getting myself into.
My uncle has a late 1990s (guessing 97-99?) Bombardier GTX 3 seater. It is green and white if that helps at all. I know it is a 2 stroke.
It has been sitting in the air on a hoist (under a cover) at my cousins house on the lake for the last 3 years (maybe 2). In that time it has not run. It was in perfect working order when it was put up, just been neglected since.
I am going to tow this into the main marina and put it on a trailer. Once I take it home I would like to know a starting point on what I need. I know a good starting point is battery, new gas, oil, and spark plugs...but anything else?
I would definitely like to get it running and use it in the upcoming season....I will probably be able to purchase it off of him fairly cheap especially if I do all the work to get it running.
I will post pictures and updates as soon as possible but I'd like some insight from others who have been down the same path. Anything in particular that I need to look for?
Thanks in advance!
ps- this winter was mild, but last year was pretty brutal (below 20* for at least a month and a half)
