ECP, EVAC and -20 deg C

[theflamanguy]

Gonna be puttin carbs back on soon. Bought ECP with evac and uncertain as to wether I should plug the holes off or run the evac. Average riding temps for us Sasquatches is -20 deg C. Talked to one guy who had said he was constantly squeezing out a frozen ice cube from his drain tube.
I would like to hear from anyone running the setup in these sub zero temps with the evac and let me know the problems if any?

Also, Freddie, I bought the different plugs (CR10EK) and although I have not looked at the old plugs yet, the new ones do not have caps. They accept the screw on type. Is this right?
Thanks,
TFG

The plugs on these sleds do not use a screw on cap. The CR10EK plugs go in just the way they are now, nothing else is needed.

What Roadrunner said about the sparkplugs is correct...you don't need the screw on tips. Simply installg a one way PCV valve from an automobile will solve the draining and freeze up issues. Suggestion though would be to route it near the exhaust for extreme colds temperatures so the condensation doesn't freeze when you stop for the night. The heat will also help "dry" the water/cpmdensation.

Does this mean going up and over the the head?
