[SkiDoo Crazy]

does anyone know a link for a free service manual???

what is it when the light just above the brake light (on the speedo), beeps at you?? i cant tell what the symbol is, looks like = (((l))). but it beeps as soon as you start, & continues even after its shut off, till speedo powers down. the only thing i did to it was take the ski's off & put the dual carbides in !!!! dam it !

Try checking your teather. May not be pushed on all the way.

I don't think the x's had the dual carbides..... Like summiteer said, to save weight...... Highmarks had them........ That is what i was led to believe....

I agree the different sound is the Erave opening it is totally controlled by the ecu and will open different depending on rider input. ie hammer on it and it will open sooner then just rolling on the throttle.

Battery: I went to the polaris dealer believe it or not and got a battery one size larger. Think its a 5 instead of a 4. The battery is about 1.5 inches taller so I had to modify the holder a bit it gives you a bit more cold crank on those extreme days. I have also heard of people going to electric start batteries they are suppose to be larger and you can still get all the brackets from ski doo to install them.

Tstat: I have installed the tstat from an xp in mine as well seems to make the motor run a little hotter and I no longer have the power drop of when I get in deep snow. Mine is an 05 so it has the longer middle cooler as well as the rear cooler. I left all coolers alone as they keep the ice build up down a bit and the added cooling is nice to have on the marginal days. 7 pound cooler or 20 pounds extra ice.

Filters: The last thing and maybe most important is to install filters, you can do it 2 ways. Timbers sled style set up with open filters under the hood or get a hold of Rangelec or email him at rangelec@lcp2.net part numbers are UP-4245. These style filters go into the air box works well. You should pull the reeds and have a look at all the belt dust in them no wonder they eat cranks.

Dootalk.com: Read the mach facts section there is a ton of guys that ride have these motors set up and working well and have a lot more knowledge about them then I.

Thanks, we've covered off most of that stuff now.... I'm still debating on the thermostat thing, but first thing i did to mine was put the timbersleds kit on..... Ordered direct from timbersleds(and good time now, because the dollar is 97.7 cents to the us dollar right now and climbing). I read about the clutch dust gettin' into the throttle bodies too. The battery thing.... well, I don't have electric start, and I tried a 5 series battery, but would have taken too much modifying the brackets for me to worry about. the 4 series does the job for 2 years and thats about it!
Thanks for the input, highlimits!!!
