New to sleds and it wont start

mardi 8 novembre 2016

So i've just got my hands on a '97 Arctic Cat 500 ZL. Bought it off of a friend and he recommended cleaning the carbs. after watching some youtube videos i was able to clean them no problem. After putting them back in I realized that I had messed with the choke and throttle cables via the carbs. Now it won't start at all. It's also worth mentioning that the throttle cable has little to no return and a half inch of free play when the cable is as tight as it can be on the carbs.

97 XLT SP with 60 lbs of compression.

dimanche 6 novembre 2016

Need some help,

I have a 97 XLT SP (model number 0976676) and last year I had trouble starting it up. I bought a compression gauge and checked all 3 cylinders and found that each one was only getting 60 lbs of compression. I bought a new mono block, 3 new SPI cylinders with rings, and a complete set of gaskets and O rings for it. I put it all together and again I was getting 60 lbs of compression. I decided to rebuild the lower half, with replacing all the seals, gaskets, and everything. I bought another new set of rings for each cylinder from parts unlimited. Again, I only have 60 lbs of compression on each cylinder.
Is there anyone who can help me out with my problem? Maybe I have overlooked something, or maybe there is something in the process that I didn't know about doing. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Ron

Info on a Cat

Have just the motor out of a Cat.

I've not seen the chassis.

The owner believes it is a 2002 Cat, but couldn't tell me what it was. I believe it is a 2002 440 ZR based on the carbs.

When to rebuild a shock?

Picked up a used Firecat rear skid shock this weekend for the Jag. It takes some effort to compress; I have to put it on the ground and push with some force to get it to compress. Once compressed, it stays compressed for about 10 seconds, then comes back up. Rebuild time or is that normal?
