I didnt notice it on my last ride but today went out to start the sled and warmed it up it was idling fine but when I would givie it gas and then let off it is making a loud snap sound I have no idea what it is does any one have any ideas?

is the sled moving, like does id do it when the track starts to move or something.. we need more info dude

 

[Fragle]

It does it with or without the track moving its kinda hard to explain and It didnt seem like it was coming from the clutch when I had the hood up trying to see what it was but i alone and kinda hard to look and rev it up at the same time

it wasn't a backfire right

 

[Fragle]

I would think a back fire would be a little louder then what im hearing would it backfire every time i let off on the rpms? i havent done any carb work only bought the sled a week ago and have only put on 200 miles and the temp has stayed about the same I did change the plugs and had the same sound

does it do it if you open the throttle and let it off while the sled isnt running? could be a sticky cable.

 

[imcrazed]

jack the back up by the bumper then you could get by the motor and hit the gas at the same time...

 

[jon24]

what color were the plugs

Sounds to me like you have some slack somewhere in the driveline.... Either in the chain case or the track itself. There could also be considerable wear on the front cogs which drive the track. The slap you hear, I suspect, is the track on the slides because of slackness or the chain in the chaincase.

If neither of the above pan out, check to see if the primary clutch is moving freely and not sticking.

going to look at it some more today and see if I can find the problem thanks for the ideas
