Took my old sled out for a ride yesterday about half way during my ride, It seemed to lack power like it maybe was only running on one plug? So i stopped my sled and shut off the engine and then i quickly felt the temp of my plugs with my bare hand, Sure enough one plug was cold the other hot so she was only running on one. So i opened the old sled tool kit that was stashed on the side of the tunnel TO MY SURPRISE NOTHING WAS IN THERE !!!! I forgot to check it over this year at the start of the season.. When looking at the empty tool kit my teenaged son came to mind in a flash.. He must have used it for something else like his minibike or something and forgot put the tools back in the kit Back in MY the sled! So after about a 20 min hike back to the house swearing like a banshee i grabbed a plug wrench a extra plug ect.. Drove back to my sled IN MY TRUCK changed the plug started it and then shut it off,, Mad as hornet i Drove back to the house and got the tired teenage sleep till past noon SON to walk back TO MY SLED and IT drive back for not putting the tools back in it. Anyways i can not remember what all was in there? What tools do you pack in your old sleds tool kit? Thanks Jiggy

Jiggy heres what in my old sleds tool kit..
i have the following...
Plug wrench and spare plugs (essential)
Screw drivers (both flat and star headed)
Pair of Vise Grips locking plyers (very useful)
adjustable wrench (medium size)
and Some mechanics tie wire (good for tying up things up that shake loose on the trail)
Sure others will add a few to the list,,
