Is this a TORS issue?

[RXWON]

Cleaned the carbs yesterday, started it up ( a 2004 Warrior) ran great when out for a little rip, and every time I pinned it and let off, then get back into the throttle, it would backfire untill I let completly off the throttle and let it come down to idle, at that point I could go again! And this did not happen everytime. I stopped and readjusted the throttle cable to give more slack, but it still happend a couple of times, not as often though. I now have the throttle cable much loser than ever before, and it still happens occationaly. Could it be a bad TORS switch? Also how do you bypass it, just connect the two wires together> Thanks!

Yes that sounds like a tors issue. You could clean the switch there was a thread on cleaning the switch on here not to long ago. To bypass you disconnect the green bullet connectors and connect them to themselves.

I hate to say this, you might want to clean the carbs again.

Indy I am going to ask Mr Sled to change your name to Indy Clean Carbs Again. JK LMAO

My 05 started doing this last winter but only on long pulls across a lake. Always when I let off, can turn around and pin it back across the lake again and either nothing happens or the odd time it does it again as soon as I let off. Been thinking its the tors as well.

Clogged pilot jetts make these sleds do some wierd things... when cleaning the carbs... try taking a some wire and stripping back the insulator. Then pull back one of the copper strands and use that to pass it through the pilot... or use compressed air.

If it is a tors problem it throws a light on the dash that the tores is active... had that problem when I raised the handle bars and didn't route the cable correctly.

chances are it is the pilot jet

I'm pretty sure at full throttle and 100mph the Pilots are not even in the equation! The mains are but it does not stumble like fuel starvation as long as you hold it pinned its fine. Its when you let off the motor runs rough and acts as if the ingnition is stuttering.

Its why I have been looking at the tors as the problem. Guess I will bypass it and try it to see if it repeats.

it is the switch under the idle adjustment screw mine would do what yours is doing , changed the switch never did it again , real easy to change.

 

[Sled Dog]

Mine does that too after a long wide open haul, if I back off and give it some more it stumbles and does the tors stumble dance. Let the revs come down nail it and gone like nothing happened. I am going to change my switch just to see.

 

[jsjk-4-stroke]

once you let off it will backfire at low rpm if you don,t watch it it will shut off , then you start it , it will run fine till the next time. when you change the switch let us know if it worked for you , it sure fixed mine.

Yes mine backfires too shounds like a gun shot. There is a link on how to clean the tors switch I may just try that first for poops and giiggles.
