I'd like to know the same thing! I have one of those sleds too. Took it out for a tear, for the first time a few weeks ago. Seems to go ok. Keep in touch, if you find out anything, or let me know what you think of it. I'll do the same!!!

UNFORTUNATLY, we dont have enough snow in my area yet to ride, which SUCKS I might add. The machine SEEMS to run good, but heard alot of bad things about the ACCS system. Things like calibration issues, which I have no idea how to do, as well as cutting out when jumping and climbing hill. Alot of the posts I've read, are quite a few years old as well, so I dont know what to believe. I have to go to a dealer for a belt this weekend, so I will ask about it, and post what I find out.

I talked to the local dealer, and he said DONT mess with it. If its running good, leave it alone. He said the only time people have problems with them is when the set up is messed with. With the main jets in the sled, the ACCS system will compensate from 2000 to 9000 elevation so I was told. A person will only have to re-jet for temps. ACCS only compensates altitude. They also said to keep an eye on the hoses from the ACCS to air box and carbs, if they get cracks, you WILL have problems. Thats what I found out today. Not sure if this info is correct, but thats what I was told. Any extra input would be great, Thanks.:d

Im running two RMKs (550 fan and a 700) with the ACCS and havent had any problems the 550 once and a while will have a hard starting isue but dont think it is tha ACCS. they both run good down at 2000 feet and good at 6000 feet. my 900 is CFI and I wonder about it all the time!

Took the sled out last tuesday night, seem to be running good. No problems, my son loved it. NOW we need some warmer weather so we can ride more. Getting tired of the -30 type weather. :rant:

Agreed. Santa brought soem cold weather gear, so riding in the cold hasn't been that bad lately. Both machines performing well.
