Sled sounded like it was on 2 cyl and wasn't rly running right,now it wont start and im 95% sure it is/was the bad gas. So I am going to change the gas,plugs and put sea foam in it. but i just wanted to check with you guys and make sure this is the problem.
 

JUST WENT THRU THIS WITH MINE .......

drain tank and refill with new fresh gas 87 oct. is fine for these engines put some seafoam in it and replace plugs while u have gas tank out

replace the above and hit the key should run like new... just dont keep starting it and letting it load up in the garage...or same result will happen...

Is this a continuation of the last time you had this problem?? I seem to remember you posting something about this a month or so ago?!?!?!
 
Yea,the gas is old. it did run fine when I parked it last which was 2 days ago. New fuel,plugs even tho they are brand new and sea foam
 
Yes he did, I just wish he'd take the advice and FOLLOW THROUGH and just CHANGE THE PLUGS, and not repeatedly ask what's wrong and ask multiple questions and need his hand held through each little step.

2008 Nytro RTX, I'm sorry, but I have to say this, but each time I see your name attached to a "new thread", I roll my eyes and think "Not again, how many questions is he gonna ask this time?" In many of your past threads, I keep suggesting that you please try using the search feature or download and read the service manual. Just had to vent a little, again, sorry, but I feel it needed to be said.

Im very confused, you never tried to fix the previous issue and rode it?? If so then your making your own life harder then it needs to be by not addressing the problem when it happens. Its hard to even give you advise because you have asked this question twice and NO ONE KNOWS WHAT YOU HAVE DONE AND HAVENT DONE! Sea Foam? Plugs? Gas? ????????????????

I changed the plugs and it was running fine,but i think there is #*$&@ on the bottom of my tank and it sucked it in with clogged an injector. PLugs were changed
 
How and why do you think there is "poop" in the bottom of the tank?
 
What else would make a sled that has fresh plugs that doesn't have 10 mins of time on them run on 2 cyl? Also the gas is old,So like I said...New gas and plugs with some sea foam
 
You could have a bad plug, bad coil, bad wire, or plugged injector. If it is just running BADLY, you could be suffering from a random general ECU failure. My RX seemed to be running on 3 (should be 4), and it was because the clutch weights became magnetized and threw an electric field that messed with the ECU. Wrapping the ECU in tinfoil helped isolate the problem. (faraday shield blocks EM field).
