Ran perfect yesterday, then today I went out to start it and ran for a minute then died. Tried to start again but no go, at 1 point when I turned it over there was nothing at all just like someone undid the battery and then all of a sudden it would turn over.. I can hear the fuel pump priming and also a click at the footwell.. Any ideas?
 

Also it was +1 today so I don't think the temp has anything to do with it, also the sled has 7000miles on it
 
Check the battery terminals to make sure they are clean and also there are a number of connections off the battery that may need to be cleaned up. Sounds like it isn't getting enough power.
 
I just don't get why would it run fine the day before
 
I have the same sled and just had a similar issue. I have 20000kms on it. Was out for a ride, stopped for 30mins and would not restart, just cranked over. Went through everything and found it to be the crank position sensor. replaced that and the stator and crank position sensor and started right up.
Funny how they run fine then shortly after the wont start.
 
Now it's running perfect again, just fooled around with the wires coming from the battery and it fired right up..lol..
 
I just did an oil filter change about a month ago, hadn't been in there for a few years, and was surprised to find both battery terminals were almost at the point of loose. Couple more months, or bumps, and I may have experienced the DC interruptus myself.
 
Now it's running perfect again, just fooled around with the wires coming from the battery and it fired right up..lol..

Check the 3 or 4 pronged square white connector that plugs into the relay that's in a rubber retainer held to the side of the battery bracket. Moisture gets inside the connector and corrodes the terminals, clean the connector and relay terminals well, add generous amount of dielectric grease.
I also found the grip of the two C-shaped parts of the spade lug connectors had relaxed enough to cause them to fit loosely over the male lug on the relay, gave them a little pinch to tighten them up.
 
Awesome thanks guys, that could be the problem because I was playing with the connections there also.. Will be tearing it all down in the coming days because snow is all gone here. Also have to take off the hauck muffler because it's just to loud..lol.
