We were actually colder on Saturday than we were on Sunday. We could tell the farther you went on Saturday, the colder it got. Sunday the coldest part was the trail, we think the trail was closer to -30. Alpine got warmer because it was full on bluebird. Could also tell that the snow...
So as a follow up to my cracks on my clutch cover. Cat is replacing my primary under warranty and they told me I can pick it up tomorrow as they need the locktite to set for the steel ring on the back of the clutch. I am confused as I would assume a new clutch comes with this ring and you...
What two part epoxy did you use for sealing the gaps on the air box Skegpro? I’ve got a white milky puddle in my nose cone after my first two rides on my 19 mountain cat. Need to put this issue away before it turns into an engine issue...
Is there a particular reason that my secondary clutch does not have any side to side float anymore? It has been a while since i checked but I just noticed this as of late. Wondering what would cause the float to disappear and what I would need to do to re gain the float?
Found the problem. The brake light switch was pinched between the brake lever mount and the handle bar control. It was shorting out to my metal brake fluid resivour. Ready to ride for the holidays.
Thanks everyone for your help and comments along the way.
When you say measure the devices, are you saying check the power supply to the plug ins while the sled is running?
I do not think the coils are bad because even though I’m measuring it cold, it checks out to the same spec as my buddies did when I measured it cold as well.
I think a short...
I measured with a digital multi meter on the Ohm setting. I tested another 16' m8000 with 300 miles on it and got slightly less resistnace on the charge coils on his and the same resistance on the lighting coil which to me seems like it proves my stator is good.
How do i check the spark plug...
I haven’t found the problem yet.
Did an ohm test on the stator today and got the following resistances. Anyone able to confirm that these numbers are about right?
Charge coil 1 - 11.2 ohms
Charge coil 2 - 11.2 ohms
Lighting coil - 0.5 ohms
Cant believe the snow is almost half way up the window already. Sometimes it doesn't even get like that until late January. Going to be interesting to see what it looks like up there after this next round of snow Friday/Saturday...
Thanks, I will look to do a test on the stator first. Can use a standard multi-meter for this no? I believe these sleds have a plug in that makes the stator wires accessible to test fairly easily? Ill look to see if i can find a thread with some steps to do the stator test.
Okay so the last two trips I have ran into some electrical issues and I believe they are linked and want to get some thoughts on it. I’ll try my best to describe the entire situation and my findings so far.
Installed new cfr handle bars and cat handle bar controls(previous ones were both...
I believe a rider in our group probed 110-120cm ish on saturday in the trees around the cabin. Not sure how much fell up there on saturday night and where the snow line was since it was so warm but I wouldnt be surprised if 2+ feet fell providing it was cold enough up top.
