Why is my snowmobile not getting fuel?
A bad fuel pump or clogged fuel filter can keep your snowmobile from getting the fuel it needs to rev up your engine. This can cause your engine to crank, but fail to start. If it’s been over a year since you last replaced your fuel filter, replace the filter and try your snowmobile’s engine again.
How do you test a sled fuel pump?
Testing your snowmobile fuel pump: Remove the tubing connecting the fuel tank to the fuel tank inlet on the fuel pump. Attach the vacuum gauge to the fuel tank inlet. Crank your engine. Check the gauge to see if a vacuum is reported when the engine is cranked.
Will a snowmobile run without a stator?
The concept is the same for quite a few models of atv or snowmobile. The stator plate is the ground. The stator coil generates the power for the spark plug and other accessories on small engines Without a stator there would be no spark at all, meaning the engine won’t run.
Will a sled run with a bad stator?
As I understand it, the short answer is no. Your problem would be the lighting coil. If the stator is bad you’re not going to run or have lights or anything though these symptoms my be intermittent or progressively get worse.
Where do you drain excess gas from a sled?
You can drain the excess gas from the drain plugs, which are located on the end case, which is at the lower end. If the sled floods out immediately or not getting the combustion chamber, you should clean them. Make sure that the fuel pump, fuel lines, and filters are in excellent and working condition.
What’s the worst case scenario for a sled engine?
Worst case scenario is that you have low or no compression in one or all of the cylinders. The cylinder needs to have enough compression to compress the air/fuel mixture, which, in turn, raises the mixture’s temperature enough to start the combustion process. You can check the compression on your sled’s cylinders with a compression tester.
What do you need to know about boosted sleds?
Boosted sleds give you that little extra oomph to facilitate more technical riding. Check out Chris Burandt, Dan Adams, Keith Curtis, the boys from Top Secret Shop and Bret Rasmussen in the latest sled films.
Why do I need to turbocharge my sled?
The most common complaint was turbo lag, which is the amount of time it takes a turbo to spool up before becoming responsive. Performance consistency was an issue due to this lag, for if you completely let off the throttle and then tried to go back into acceleration, the machine wouldn’t respond in time to be effective.
How much horsepower does a low boost sled have?
Low boost, running at approximately 175 horsepower, provides a noticeable advantage in power—while still being economically friendly since you can utilize lower octane fuel, such as 91 non-ethanol premium, from your local gas station. This type of turbo appeals to many riders—from seasoned to beginner and tree rider to hucker.

Who are some famous sledders that have turbo sleds?
Today’s turbo applications are not just for the Ricky Bobbys of sledding—the ones who “just wanna go fast.” Boosted sleds give you that little extra oomph to facilitate more technical riding.
