Hello from NE Washington

Howdy Everyone,
What a great site!! My family has had a Diablo for about 25 years. I never thought I'd find any resources online about this sled, but I am glad I found this site. We have a 502 (recently discovered model # thanks to this site) that we have enjoyed since I was about 8 years old. My dad traded some welding work for it from our neighbor in Montana. It was in his shed still in the crate when we got it. My parents now live in NE Washington and we just got it running again after about 2 years of not running. We dumped the old gas out, filled it with fresh gas, and after about 10 minutes of keeping it running by squirting gas down the carb, it took off on its own. It has been well used and needs some reconditioning, so we are thankful that we found the website. Thanks again to all who have put this great site together!
