Jerry installed my clutch kit this week from dragonweld28 (Benny). Benny is taking it to his place to start some other mods. Will be starting a build thread soon.

Cat's EFI system are a batteryless system, so no relay. The pump requires a signal from the mag to activate when the engine is turned over. 99.9% of the time when this happen's it the kill switch.

Nope not kill switch

I'm thinking yours is ES and i was thinking it was a manual start on my last post, manual start uses no relays but the ES uses relays for the fuel system. I did a little digging and found that there is two 5 pin relays in the fuse box. They are suppose to be for the fuel pump to the best of my knowledge.
Did you not find a fuse box? You would had to remove the hood i believe and they should be located at the nose near the throttle bodies.

Is it out yet ?

You bet it’s out as Selkirk picked up yesterday am and got another free T shirt from them lol!!! As per Arctic Cat Tech I’m told it’s my ECU!!! My dealer & Arctic Cat are taking care of incurred costs... plus a few other extras!! So no complaints from me!!

A product backed by HQ and not just a dealer.
Nice to see!
Takes away the pain of the day and just becomes another adventure.
Keep us posted on any more info if there is.

I agree... loyal customer sometimes pays off... and I will keep you updated.

On another note ran into a couple Alpha guys on hill and was quizzing him on my sled. He too was happy as he hit a stump and broke his monorail & dealer replaced with no issues. Good to hear!

By the sounds of it guys will just start breaking their Alpha's just so they can get free Steak Dinners for life and a Case of Whisky with every broken Monorail and ECU. I wonder what they will give you if you taped the throttle to the bar and pointed down hill into a tree! LMAO

So Arctic Cat Tech Chat was wrong as it was not ECU failure as I thought it was fuel pump!!

You can have mine.
Don't have a engine anyways.

It would be interesting to run up your pump and check fuel pressure. A weak fuel pump can cause an engine failure like your experienced.

BTW, i do not know if Cat changed their fuel pumps but it would be the first i have heard to fail in a Cat.
