Glad to hear yours is holding up well! Mine is in the shop right now getting a full long block put in. Mine fouled a couple plugs, and started taking quite a few pulls to start (with throttle) but once running on both cylinders didn’t sound out of the ordinary and i didn’t notice any lose of power. Did a compression test and showed 120mag/45pto. Took it in for a tear down and found pto side bottom piston ring broke and destroyed the engine. Head, block, crank bearings and noticeable damage to crank. 2200km on it. Thank god for warranty

I have fouled a few plugs on the 800’s. But always keep a spare set.

Usually after I do some slow riding following my kids around.

I think they are pretty rich in the low end. Maybe I should check my TPS but I’d rather be rich than lean.
What are signs of fouled plugs?

Yesterday my sled kept cutting out at WOT. Original plugs (350ish miles)

Sled is only running one one cylinder. Hard to start. Idle around 1200 rpm and max out a little over 6 thousand.

Then pull the plug wires off one at a time to figure out which side is fawked. If you pull one wire and the sled dies it’s the other one.

You really haven’t had good luck hey?
Lol no not really.

Considering last season I was on a pro chassis turbo that always ran like garbage though. I’d say I’m doing better hahah.

Mine was cutting out at around 7900, I didn’t pay attention to the idle but sometimes it is hard to start without a bit of throttle. I will change plugs just to be sure.

Also going to put my stock exhaust back on, I bought a npp one but I’m still having it cut out from time to time. Maybe my sled just hates cans? Lol

The guy I bought the npp from said it ran fine for him, he suggested my issue is with my clutching, exhaust valves or relay. I having checked the other two out, but for Clutching I’m running Bens set up. And adjust my weights for altitude.

Anywho, gotta love sledding haha. Here’s to hoping new plugs will make her sing

did a search but couldnt find anything on here, anyone know of a way to check a nox sensor other then resistance?

My meter only goes to 1k ohm, doesn’t even beep for continuity when I checked my leads earlier today

Sled is a 20 axys 800

Are you working on a diesel pickup? They're the only vehicle with a NOx sensor that I'm aware of.

det sensor would make it go down on det. wouldn't cause a bog. you said since new. did you ride it completely stock first couple rides?

on pulls when i got on it hard it would fall on its face and then give me a det code, id have to turn it off and on again to get full power. Bog was the wrong choice of word that I used

I didn’t ride at all last year but from memory thats what would happen

Yes did it with stock can and with NPP can, and two different ggbs

I’m going to try bre8es plugs next time I have it out
