Any light shining through as you look through the carb side is not good on brand new reeds. I have tried every which way possible and nothing I do will make them 100%. Is there anything I can do? Are they critical on a cfi engine as they are on a carb? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are they critical on a cfi engine as they are on a carb? I looked at all the pictures pretty close and could only see one pedal with a noticable gap. The others looked ok from what I could tell. If youve got them the beat you can just put them back in and see how it runs. If you have a little stumble under 1/4 throttle then you may have to either live with it or go back in. Put it together and see how it runs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomas. Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Probably a stupid question but is there any consequences in starting up a snowmobile without an air box attached? not going to be driving it just want to make sure that everything's working fine before I put the airbox on and hide everything.

I put the air box on. It idles around 1700 which is perfect. But to me it seems to idle weird and the engine makes almost like a rattling noise but I don't know if that is normal or not. I will see if I can attach some videos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomas. Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 So I couldn't post a video with my phone as it exceeds the file size limit. When you start to here rattling I have the phone close to the engine. I am sorry if this is beginner lessons. I don't have anybody else to ask questions to aside from taking it to a shop lol 20181017_190851_Voice.amr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomas. Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 Does anyone know how to rebuild a brake caliper on a 07 Arctic Cat? Was bleeding the brakes tonight and it was taking a long time. So I have the wife come out and pull the brake lever a bit while I checked it out. Kind of hard to bleed brakes with a leaking caliper piston seal. Little bubbles are coming out around the piston. I have never had a caliper a part on anything and the isn't much information on the internet. Mostly for ATVs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ez ryder Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 what sort of company builds a mountain sled that you have to pull the hood pull the pipe then you can poss get to the A arm bolts with a custom wrench . seriously what a PITA oh but that fit and Finnish. fuck that shit how about 30 seconds of forethought Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomas. Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 (edited) Does anybody know if these brake pistons are ok? Do I use scotch Brite on them? Or just put them back in? There was a bunch of dirt behind the piston. Seals seem good. Edited October 19, 2018 by Tomas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f7ben Posted October 19, 2018 Author Share Posted October 19, 2018 Just buy a used caliper assembly. Probably cheaper than the parts to fix that one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that doesn't work, I will be looking for a used one like you said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
