My sled seems to be really doggy off the line then clears out somewhat once the rpms get up there, but still doesnt seem to be running real smooth. i was told to check the exhaust valves and they seemed a little dirty but looked operational. Any advice? the exhaust seems to leak a bit where the y and the pipe meet.

just start now after running well this season or is this the first time out for the season or is sled new to you?

I've owned the sled for 3 years, it seemed to act like this alittle last year but now has gotten worse. I've put lots of miles on this year, 5-6 tanks of gas so far.

when was the last time you did a full carb cleaning including pulling jets and blowing out kinda sounds like crap in jet. dose it want to stall out just sitting?

ive never done a carb cleaning, I bought it with 500 miles on it, it now has 2500. I suppose it"s time for a cleaning! Is it hard to do? it idles pretty good

the lay down twins are a pain to get to the carbs and get them out. if you have never cleaned carbs I would prob bring in the carbs to get cleaned or at least have some one help you allot of tiny parts that have to get pulled and put back together.where do you live how far is hermmintown from west metro lk minnetonka forget it googled I see at least 3.5 hr
