Long story some what short, I took my SXViper in to a local dealer because it would not run when the choke was turned off. They cleaned the carbs and the power valves. This took place in the beginning of March (No I did not get to ride last season do to other reasons). I picked the sled up and took it to my cabin, drove it around the yard a couple times (seemed to run fine) and parked it in the garage.
The last weekend in May I drained almost all the gas out of it and put 3 to 4 gal. of fresh gas in and also put in a half can of sea foam, put the choke on and started,after a second or two shut the choke off and the sled died. Tried again with same results.
I took my paperwork back to the dealer that worked on it and told them I was still having the same problem.
There reponse was that they would not take reposibilty for the gas that was in it(understandable) and that they would diagnose it again but anything they did after that would be a charge. The first bill was 460.00.
Should I take it back or go some where else?
Want to add something, on the day that I put fresh gas and sea foam and started the sled it was warm and humid,could this have had anything to do with it shutting down when the choke was turned off? like starving for air maybe!?!
Again not sure what to do?
(Skyler do you work on other peoples sleds?)
