Picked it up and my daughter ran the heck out of it yesterday, all is well and was covered. The service manager was in and between him and Yamaha, their only possible thought was that the selling dealership had a load of bad race gas, which they said is what they use on new sleds just to keep...

I just got off the phone with the dealer, everything will be covered. The gas was tested and showed no issues, sounds like Yamaha acknowledged that nothing should have realistically caused this amount of damage to a fuel system in 2 months. They requested the damaged parts be sent in and I...

I only have 3 5 gallon cans, always filled from the local Mobil or Kwik Trip. It's the same gas that keeps 2 old simplicty tractors, a snowblower, a Z120, SRX120, another SnoScoot, and my big sleds topped off. It's not impossible, but any batch of gas would have gone through those other...

I posted this in the SnoScoot forum, which doesn't get much traffic. Re-posting here anyways seeing as it is more a general Yamaha issue. Mods, apologies if I shouldn't have done it this way. I went to start our brand new 2022 Snoscoot ES (picked up in early December from Hauck Powersports in...

I went to start our brand new 2022 Snoscoot ES (picked up in early December from Hauck Powersports in Rice Lake, WI and only has 6 hours) last weekend and it would not start. Lots of cranking and it wouldn't so much as cough, regardless of the choke. I eventually got it going and took it into...

I was starting to roll that around in my head after getting her on one at the local showroom: they are small, but not a whole lot smaller. You're not wrong on the price either. The nice thing is that her brother is 3 years behind her, so I have a 2-kid cycle to go through with any machine I...

I called back in May and put $500 down on mine. At the time I was 4th on the list and they were slated for 8. I called again about every month and at some point in late summer they said they had cut all the ones that weren't paid for, but were being guaranteed the 4 they had payments on. It...

I had the airbox cover on my 22 open up and cause a complete loss of top end and bogging on acceleration. Maybe make sure that is closed properly.

Thanks for the help. Good advice on the feeler gauges. I ordered a set offset feelers to help with this. I saw a video where once he had things open, the guy ziptied the chain to the sprocket to ensure nothing moved. Just to be sure, which clutch is rotating counter-clockwise to do this...

After last season's issues with hard cold starts, stumbling off idle, and occasionally dying when coming off throttle on my wife's 06 Attak, I'm going to check the valves (exhaust mainly) to make sure they aren't too tight. From everything I've read and what several said on my troubleshooting...

Thank you for the input, I suspect that is the issue and your experience with that confirms my suspicion. I'll be leaving the sled out of the trailer this spring and that will be an off season project. I also have an 08 but it seems the issue is worse in the 06's than other years. I have...

I ended up getting it pretty much dialed in: - I set the throttle linkage stop between the throttle bodies. Spec in the manual via the DI diagnostics (this is the first reading) had it at 15-19, I believe for closed. I ended up having it set right at the high end of 18. Anything less and it...

That's what I ended up doing, used the diagnostic on the first value to set it to 15-18, which was the closed spec listed in the manual. Ended up at the high end of 18 but anything higher led to the rpm's running up or never coming down off throttle.

That makes perfect sense. Just enough contact so the screw is the stop, not the edges of the blades on the housing.

How do you set the throttle blade stop screw on the linkage between the throttle bodies? Details to follow: I've got an ongoing thread about my rough idling 06 Attak and that I'm trying to smooth out, but I suspect that I screwed things up when I adjusted the stop screw between throttle body 2...

Also, is there an starting point for the idle adjusting screw on the left side? I'm sure I have something off in the process before I need to mess with this, but I went from all the way in to all the way out to no effect.

Thank you for all the help so far...I'm still not out of the woods on this one. I've got a series of issues I'm chasing around but I'll wait until I get a new set of plugs in it this week and check the dash settings before I really start chasing my tail. I synced the throttle bodies and ended...

I synced the throttle bodies yesterday. Screws 3 & 4 were took more than a turn in to get them synced with 1. I started turning 3 out at first, and on the first blip it started popping flame back through the throttle body, so I'm guessing out is more fuel and it was WAY too rich. Starts and...

Not being able to adjust the low, loping idle is the original issue. The air screw doesn't seem to do much and moving the throttle cable stop on between throttle bodies 2 and 3 results in erratic changes. By erratic, I mean that small adjustments have no result and then suddenly a huge jump...

All my toys go to sleep for the off-season with a full tank of stabilized non-ethanol fuel, and this low idle has been going on for 2 years. I'll be through the storage gas this weekend and will have fresh fuel in it this weekend, and the vac gauges to sync the throttle bodies should be here...
