General Maintenance

Carburetor

The number stamped in the end of the main jet indicates the jet size.

The jet installed at the time of manufacture is not necessarily correct for

your elevation. It's your dealer's responsibility to make sure the correct

main jet is installed.

Carburetor Adjustments

The frequency at which the carburetors are synchronized or balanced is

important. Properly adjusted carburetors can greatly improve engine

performance, fuel economy, engine life, and reliability.

If you notice any of the following conditions, the carburetor may need

adjustment:
• Hard starting
• Poor idle
• Overheated pistons and cylinder walls
• Plug fouling
• Poor engine response to various throttle valve openings

CAUTION

Operating the snowmobile with incorrect jetting can result in serious engine

damage. Have your Polaris dealer perform all carburetor adjustments to

ensure all adjustments are done correctly.
