Polaris Indy 600 XLT HELP! - Snowmobile Fanatics

change coil the one not sparking

charge up your battery.

Could be a bad cdi box. Ive this problem with my xlt when I go for a ride, stop to eat and head back out to go home it won't start. I've usually had to choke it, and pull until it starts. My issue is carb settings. If you don't have spark I'd try replacing your cdi. If you know someone with the same sled try there's.

COULD BE THE THROTTLE SAFETY SWITCH OR THE STATOR. CHECK TO SEE IF IT HAS SPARK AT OPEN THROTTLE, IF SO IT IS THE THROTTLE SAFETY SWITCH. THEN IF U PICK UP A MANUAL IT WILL WALK YOU THROUTH THE TESTS FOR ALL THE OTHER CONPONENTS.
THERE ARE MANY THINGS THAT CAN CAUSE NO SPARK.

I have 1995 and a 1997 XLT. i have rebuilt the recoil on the 95 and all it takes is the few bolts to take off the cover and take the pipe off. if the 97 is any thing like my dads 94, you may have to pull the engine up a bit, the bottom left bolt cant fully be backed out with out hitting the side of the belly pan retainer, all it takes to pull the motor up is one nut in the back of the motor mount, and one bolt off the front, and it will tip up enough

A 1995 Polaris XLT 600 snowmobile has a class-leading 120 hp.

did you check the compression or torxe it to the correct specs it could also be youre fuel pump check your electrical ground wire its connected to your cdi the cdi is the unit connected to the spark plug caps its probably a fuel pump issue or a kill switch issue search from those two points its very unlikely that its a magneto issue and next time theres a flood its easier to tip ur machine on its side take the spark plug caps off and pull like theres no tomorrow till all the water comes out then then pull the drain plugs there are two bolts on the bottom front end sticking out take them off then when ur done it wouldnt hurt to pour some polaris blue into the spark plug cap seats :)

The problem was contaminated pump/fuel. Disassembled carbs and pump, inspected and cleaned, engine runs like new. Thank you
