4 weeks ago i was using full choke to try starting my sled, at that time it had been sitting over a month. it would not start. i gave it a very light shot of quick start in all carbs and it started but slalled i repeated this and it ran no problem all day with hot restarts. thought it was an isolated incedent. tryed to start it two days ago and same issue. light mist of quick start and it ran. it almost seams like my choke is inactive. i checked to see the cable was moving on the carbs and it was . thoughts?
thanks to all who reply
Best Regards O/S
 

After the month I would have said carbs and maybe fuel lines went dry. But that should not be the case after 2 days. Are you running old fuel? That could be a factor.
 
hey, i put new prem.fuel (no ehtynoil) in last month and again this past weekend. i tried to start it yesterday (monday) after riding it saturday for 4hours and quick start was needed. the fuel thing was my first thought too. any other thoughts. choke is not working.
thanks
 
I would clean carbs first then go from there. Make sure choke is ajusted right. My wheeler was doing the same thing and the cable was out of ajustment.
 
ok i used the sled on saturday and again on sunday (something thats almost unheard of in southern ontario, haveing snow two days back to back) and the rs started great. i dont understand it, but im not complaining either. i will try using it again next weekend and see what happens.
thanks
