Ok, I started to pull apart my Salvaged P1000 that has OEM heater installed.

To my surprise plastic hose holders/ducts that screw/lock into heater were melted and deformed and not round anymore, I guess Arizona heat got them, :)

any such experience???

Im going to improved Honda design on screw metal ducts . Need to find right replacement. I did not do pics. Will post when go back to the shop.

Found aluminum 1 3/4 replacement .

Yes. Just winter was too short and not much snow. I've ordered 4s1 tracks . Will set them for next season. Wanted to try on p500. But end up buying p1000 and changed order to p1000

Sold Argo Centaur too.

Seems odd that you had a short winter. Down south we had a hard winter...

Anyway, hope you like that 1000. I guess you’ll post pictures of it soon?
