I've been running my 500 all winter out on the ice. I am running a 178 main, #50 pilot with great results. No plug fouling, and great overall running behavior I run 100% uncut CAM II fuel, so if you're running pump fuel, you might want to jat a tad richer on the main. If temps are in the low to mid 20's I place a sheet af cardboard over one rad to allow temps to properly come up. But keep in mind, now it's warming up, I anticipate leaning out my jetting in the coming weeks as temps hover around freezing and above.....I am running 14/45 gearing. Some propane heat on the cyl for stone cold starting helps out huge. Kicking over a 500 in the teens for temp is a PRICK !!!!  Heres a few pics of the "sno cone" machine: LOL
