[QUOTE="stalker, post: 252493, member: 863"] I wouldn't expect better than 10 with that machine in any conditions. Don't re jet it. All you will do is forget that you did, then go for a ride on a high barometer / cold temp day and end up with a hole in your piston. Does it smell strong of gas? We end up using one every year for a LOW trip. Last year it took a tank to go 25 miles. There are water traps on the carbs made from clear fuel lines. One was cracked and leaking pretty bad. Check all the fuel lines on something that old, including the one inside the tank. They get old and brittle. I have replaced all on my older machines from time to time. I still don't know why we were so stuck on the clear vinyl fuel lines on snowmobiles. I think it was so you could watch to make sure fuel was moving while trouble shooting engine issues. I've seen the one inside the tank can get mushy and fall off. Another solution would be to trade it for a new Norseman. You wouldn't have to worry about fuel issues anymore. [/QUOTE]
