Went out to my elan ski-doo took the tarp off of it to get it ready for this sleddin season, Primed it a couple of times. pulled it over it started up well like every other preseason startups i normally do.. But this time after letting it idle and warm up for a while but when i tried cracking the gas to her it I would die right away!
I just cant figure it out?
any ideas?
thanks Stan

When you cleaned the carb did you take it a part completely or just clean the bowl? ,,Cause it sounds like it is still dirty so it idles fine then the idle circut is working fine.. take it apart completely when you pull the middle brass jet out you will have lots of little holes in it if they are all plugged up you wont get the gas you need,,,Use a small piece of wire and go through all the lil holes.. clean it and blow it out again,,

hi Sledrat no i just flushed it out the best as i could, i tryed taking the pin out that holds the float arms and the needle it is stuck really good its all gummed up! Tryed tapping it out carefully not a chance! ok anyways the carb is off again going to try and take it apart if i can,, I need this sled up and running before Christmas hopefully! ,
