Hi everyone been lurking on here on and off for years. I have a 07 Apex that I have owned since new that is completely stock and has 7000km. The sled sat for the last couple seasons in the garage due to poor snow conditions but I always run sea foam and it started up fine at the start of this season. So far I have put on 400km and everything was running top notch until last night.! The wife and I went on a short ride 120km sled ran fine until the last 20km. The first indication was a slight miss for just a split second, I actually thought
I had just imagined it but then I stopped to talk for a second and the sled was idling and just died. I turned it over and it fired right up thought this is bizarre. Continued towards home and could feel it sputter a couple times seemed to happen when letting off the throttle but continued towards home running fine other
the odd sputter. I get within 300yards of my house just idling down the road and it completely dies, so I try starting it and it turns over fine I hear the fuel pump prime but it wont fire up so I keep trying it and after ten trys it fires up running a little rough but then cleans up and I drive it home pull up get the wifes sled in the garage fire up the apex runs for a second and dies have a hard time getting it going again but I get it to fire up again and get it in the garage. This morning I put it in D1 and tps is 16 and 96 D60 Shows 00 no codes. So I fired it up and it started fine ran at high idle for a minute and then just died before it idled down, started back up fine and ran for 30 seconds and died and would not fire up. I have been using the same gas same pump as the wifes 2 stroke venture so I do not think its a bad gas problem as her sled is running great, I also run a couple OZ of seafoam in each tank. The only thing I have done to the sled is exhaust donuts at 5500km, regular oil changes, and the battery is good. This really has me stumped no codes, dies at idle cold or warm engine no change. starts right up after dieing one time next time it dies its really hard to get it to fire. I can hear the fuel pump priming each time I tun it over. Sorry for the Long winded post but I am LOST on this one. Any thoughts very much appericated Thanks Dustin.
