Flooding ?

[POS Pol]

I have a 04 and 05 800 Summits they run great but last weekend it was 40 deg or higher and when we would stop for over 10 min and shut them off and then when we would start them they would fire and then flood out and then it would take a bunch of pulls to get them going. If we would park them up hill they would start better. I thought that the floats were high but you cant adjust them. So does anyone have any idea. Oh but they didnt do it when it was cooler in the morning.

i am having the same problem is seems like my sled loads up when it is idling too and then every once in a while it will take for ever to start when it is shut off and left for about 10 min!!! then when it does fire it dies and this happens a couple times till it starts and then runs great???? need help!!

I put a fuel shut off inline and any time we would stop I would close it and i didnt have any more trouble. But I had a friend ride with us and his 05 did the same thing. I am going to try new needle and seat assembly in both carbs and see if it helps.

If your carb heat is turned on this will happen.

I did make sure it was off.
