I got my new engine in my MXZ 700 and man is it hard to pull over in the mornings, alot of compression. It seems harder now than it was with my first engine! I have to use two arms to pull when cold, is anyone elses this stiff, all my buddys said the same thing.
jwheeler - I had the same problem with my ThunderCat. I could barely move it when I tried to pull it over. Arctic Cat makes a heater that I installed and I plug it in for 20 minutes before take-off and it pulls over like it is the middle of summer. I am sure Ski-Doo has something similar. Or I am sure you could use the A/C one. It was about 55 bucks Cdn.
Mine used to do the same thing. Now that it has a new crank it pulls over easy. HMMM, maybe that is why it is a junk sled. Just learn how to be able to start it on the first pull. Good luck.
Hey do a compression test, to see if its indeed the improved compression.
If high, then do a squish on the cylinders, you may want to go with a thicker base gasket,
changes the port timing, will help with starts(lowers the comp) run a little cooler also.
more top end.
I have an early 1970s Bombardier Ski-Doo single cylinder. I need to lower the primary clutch engagement rpm. What spring and weights would make it possible to lower the engagement of the primary clutch. Thanks for any knowledge you can send my way... Chevysteve.
I wasn't interested in a new sled. Was satisfied with my 16 4-Tech 1200 Renegade and my 17 900 ACE Renegade. Dealer talked me into trying his personnal 19 900T Renegade with a chip and reflash. Claims it puts out 190 hp.
Besides being quick,and fast it doesn't lag and handled well. So I...
Hello
My snowmobile is skidoo Formula MX XTC, model year 1995. My skidoo front light work poorly (only 3 volts given) and i was wondering where is the battery located? Or does this skidoo have battery at all? Engine is rotax 467. Anyway there is something wrong with electrics.
I ride a 2001 ski doo touring 500fan, and over the past year have spent a lot of time fixing issues with it (it was sitting unprotected in a backyard for 5 years). I cleaned the carbs, fixed some electrical contact issues, and redid much of the fuel system. It used to bog down when I went past...
First time for the season the brakes lockup and got hot. and continued to do it all day. So replaced the caliper and dot 4 brake fluid cleaned reservoir and tried brakes seemed to work fine. Go out again brake lockup.
Can my rotor be warped causing this brake up?
Thanks in advance
