Why does my snowmobile run hot?
Snowmobiles can overheat from overuse, lack of engine cooling, using the wrong fuel, and poor engine stator coil insulation. In some instances, bad electrical connections or a damaged voltage regulator-rectifier can also cause overheating.
How hot can a snowmobile get?
130-140 is normal operating temperature. Stud went through my cooler one night and the temperature got up to 220 degrees.
How many volts should a snowmobile stator put out?
Registered. Your stator produces AC, somewhere between 24 and 30 volts. The voltage regulator will pass on somewhere between 13 and 14 DC Volts to charge your battery. The AC current is passed on to your spark plugs.
Why did the idiot light turn on on my snowmobile?
During the stretch where the conditions sucked, her idiot like came on, while the needle on my gauge was just a hair above the 2nd white hash mark below the red. I was talking to my brother afterwards & he said he checked the heat exchangers once on her sled after the light came on & they were cool to the touch.
What was the snowmobile of the year in 2000?
The Polaris Indy 600 XC SP – named 2001 Snow Goer Snowmobile of the Year in September of 2000. It marked the introduction of the EDGE chassis and suspensions for Polaris, and was recognized for its superior handling, light (for the time) weight and winning ergos.
Which is the fastest Yamaha 500 SX or Z 500?
Sadly, by comparison, both the Yamaha Vmax 500 SX and the Ski-Doo MX Z 500 got spanked by these two machines when it came to power, quickness and speed. As mentioned, the Rotax plant surprised us.
Why does my snowmobile not have a spark?
A weak plug may be able to spark in the open, but will not under the compression of the cylinder. Fortunately, most spark plugs are inexpensive. If you still do not have spark after installing new spark plugs, then you have an issue with your electrical system. You will need to check your plug caps and wires, coils, cdi box and rectifier/regulator.
