Answer
Hello Frank,

  According to your Engine model No. your sled shows up as 1980 Kawasaki Invader 440. The best basic manual is Intertecs Snowmobile Service Manual, 11 Edition, but I'm not sure if it covers your specific sled. You can find this manual at Amazon.com. Here are some tips out of the manual:

Sparkplug: BR9EV ( This is the NGK FINE-WIRE plug, important for use in older sleds)
Sparkplug Gap: 0.024 in.
Fuel/Oil Ratio: 20:1

Also, this site contains helpful information on your sled: http://www.isd.net/ecurtis/kawimain.htm

Let me know if you get it running good! Arcticatman
