My M7 Bog Is gone. I figured it out!!!!
- Thread starter CATCRAZY
- Start date
Why not route it into the air box then, that way its getting a correct reading for actual air pressure going into the motor.

So Steve did you look at your 1200 how is it routed. My altimeter is not giving the proper readings at all. Maybe just to cold up here? I am going to go look and see how mine is routed right now. back in a sec...

Mine is routed back wrds next ti the inside of the oil tank. Does not seem to make a difference which way it is routed on mine.

i found this problem with my M7 last week the hose got water in it and froze. found it and it fix the bog that i was having. routed it along buy the Y pipe and havent had a problem yet.
your altimeter uses the barometric pressure sensor but it needs to be calibrated at a known altitude to read correctly.
mine has the same problem,bog right from the get go and loses so much power it barely moves.I have at the dealer because i had no idea where to start and alot of other ppl have been having the same problem with no fix for it.
If the dealer calls and tells me it's that clear hose i'm gonna be happy it was only that.If he tells they couldn't find anything that'll be the 1st thing i look at.

Does it make sense that if you have installed an aftermarket airbox, the tube should be re-routed so it is not picking up the fluctuations in the airflow?
I have the BDX Black Boxx and the tube is pointed into the airbox.
Guess I will try re-routing it to lose the bog.

My brother has been living with this bog since he put on a can when it was about 1 month old. I told him about the tube. He rerouted it last night. Straightened it out and ran it by the wiring harness and it runs perfect. He said it hasn't run this good in years! I will have to try it on mine if I ever get it going! Thanks guys!

Good info! I will pass it along to my buddy that rides an 05 M7.
so if the sled was calibrated with stock can then i go and put a different can on it do i have to recalibrate?
the calibration feature is for the altimeter function of the gauge (on sno pro) only. It does not affect the calibration of the efi system. The barometric pressure sensor is a non-replaceable-non-adjustable component of the efi system. As long as the hose coming off the ecu has not been tampered with and is routed where it does not ice up it should not be affecting the runnability of these sleds. While the correct routing from cat on an M sled is downward towards the belly pan area, I have seen them routed all over without affecting the runnability of the sleds. I don't believe many of you are going to find the cure in this hose. It does not seem right that a sled would develop a bog with a can install and then cure it by moving the hose.
MBMS,
I am sorry but I have been battling this infamous bog for and year and half. I have read all the post on this forum for the last 2 years on the M-series bog. On friday I moved the tube and the bog was gone just like that. Arctic Cat has made mistakes in the past, they are human, just like all of us. And just maybe the engineers at Cat overlooked this one. If you look at it carefully were does the snow go inside the engine compartment? To the bottom of the belly pan. Where did Cat route the hose from the factory? In the bottom of the belly pan. Where is it dry in the engine compartment? Close to the exhaust. I am not saying that you are wrong or right in your statement, but it cured my bog, and by the sounds of it moving that tube has solved the problem for others that have posted. So maybe we are on to something here??? I also have to confess, I had a bad roller on my primary, I thought that that could possibly be the issue for the low to mid range bog. My first ride with the new primary was also on Friday. The new primary did not change a thing. It was still bogging just as bad as before, until the tube was moved.

I have to agree with you. My brothers sled has had the famous bog basically since new. He has never really tried to get rid of it...just rode it like that. I read this yesterday and told him about it. He immediately went and rerouted the hose and it runs PERFECT! He said it was like night and day difference. He had ridden the sled over to a buddies house and it had the same bog as always...I talked to him while he was there, so he moved the hose and rode it home with no bog! IT IS A MIRACLE!!!
Agreed!
If it seems to good to be true, it usually is! Not to be a buzz kill. I think there are just so many various reasons for this f/in bog that there is not going to be a quick fix. Clutching, lean spots, poor mapping, slipping belts, air intake clogged etc. There is no rhyme or reason with any of these bogs imo!

Hey guys,
I also have an 05 M7 with the bog and I am going to check this out. I will let you know my results thanks for the tip

Bog?
Was your bog all the time? I have a bog only when I go down an long hill under an idle and then when I get to the bottom and go to get into it then it bogs on me.
