1995 artic cat snowmobile is running rough?

Posted by admin on Mar 1st

When i start my snowmobile it runs rough. Like maybe water in the gas. I cleaned the carborator twice the best i could.” one carb two cylinders” Checked for spark on both plugs. at full throttle it runs just above an idle let off the gas and it stalls. it sounds too me a cylinder is cutting out out but plugs are firing. it ran fine when i shut it off. started it up an hr later and this is what i got. Maybe its still got junk in the carb?? Any suggestions?
I also added a can of dry gas as well.. forgot too mention that
and its a puma 340 f/c
The nut on the choke adjustment vibrated up on it causing the choke to stay on.. lol Thank you for all the answer’s they gave me the idea too check that nut adjustment. Now i can get the kids off the video games shove em outside and they can have some real fun.

If you suspect water in the gas, cleaning the carb is just half of the job. You need to drain and flush the gas tank and purge the fuel lines too.

Not knowing what engine is in it kind of hampers me to answer this, but a lot of the Arctic cat fuel pumps would go soft after 2-3000 miles. Just a thought, but they are re-buildable. When the pumps go soft, they wont build pressure. It will make the engine act like it is getting crappy gas, or not enough gas.

I’m not a Cat guy but I have a buddy who had a similar problem with his mid 90′s Cat. All I remember is that it was an electrical problem.
