Engine Family:
Likely a 600cc class engine, based on model designations VX600ERC and VX600SXBC.
Configuration:
The manual's coverage of 'Engine' and 'Carburetion' suggests a potentially carbureted internal combustion engine, common in snowmobiles of this era. Specifics such as cylinder count (e.g., 2-cylinder in-line or V-twin) and cooling type (liquid or fan) would be detailed within the manual.
Bore Stroke:
Detailed bore and stroke measurements for engine components will be found in the manual.
Compression Ratio:
The manual will list the specified compression ratio for optimal engine performance and tuning.
Fuel Delivery:
Carbureted system, requiring detailed service and tuning as indicated by the manual's 'Carburetion' section.
Horsepower Range:
Expected to be in the 60-80 HP range for a 600cc snowmobile of that era, though specific figures are within the manual.
Torque Figures:
Specific torque output figures for the engine would be detailed in the manual's specification section.
General Intervals:
The manual provides 'Periodic Inspections And Tuning Adjustments', implying specific intervals for checks such as spark plug inspection/replacement, track tension adjustment, coolant checks, and drive belt inspection. Specific mileage or operational hour intervals are expected within the manual.
Spark Plug Interval:
Intervals for spark plug inspection, cleaning, and replacement would be specified.
Drive Belt Interval:
Recommended mileage or time intervals for drive belt inspection and replacement to prevent failure.
Track Tension Adjustment:
Frequency and procedure for checking and adjusting track tension.
Engine Oil:
The manual would specify the correct type and viscosity of engine oil (e.g., Yamalube 2-stroke oil for older models, or specific 4-stroke oil if applicable) and its capacity. For carbureted models, specific fuel-to-oil ratios might also be detailed if it's a mixed-lube 2-stroke.
Coolant:
Specifications for coolant type and mixture ratio (e.g., ethylene glycol-based antifreeze) would be provided, along with capacity.
Transmission Fluid:
If a separate transmission fluid is used (less common in CVT snowmobiles), its specification would be included. For CVT systems, drive clutch and driven clutch lubrication requirements would be detailed.
Common Wear Items:
Based on typical snowmobile components, the manual would likely address maintenance and replacement of wear items such as drive belts, brake pads, spark plugs, suspension bushings, and track components.
Carburetor Icing:
Potential for carburetor icing in cold, humid conditions, with troubleshooting and preventative measures likely covered.
Clutch Wear:
Wear on primary and secondary clutch components (rollers, buttons, springs) which affect performance and require regular inspection.
