On the tss do you tape it closed or jump it out? Where do you buy steering bushings from?

How reliable has your 2018 been?

I just unplugged it and taped over the plugs on my 2014. All done inside the throttle block.
Bushings are made by Canada Sled Parts. I know Racinstation stocks them in the states.
Cut the wires or un plug.

I had to top up the antifreeze after the first ride.
Since then not a single problem.
Still on original belt.
Still riding in northern Saskatchewan.

Going on 3rd engine. Possible cause of first failure due to gap in intakes at 375km. Second failure a crank bearing at 1700km on machine....
I understand the intake issue as a problem, as engines are not designed for snow ingestion. Bearing however, cause? Bad seal?
I sent you a PM
503 miles of awesome. Love the smooth, reactive clutching. The Ctec 800 is super crisp and pulls very strong. 162 - 3" PowerClaw is a monster.
Love the sled. I'd do it again and again if I was made of $$. Ride it for a couple more years and then getting an Alpha!

Still waiting for a replacement engine… Sleds been in the shop for at least 60 days total this season at this point. Customer service at cat is horrible takes about 3 to 4 days just to get a hold of anybody. Skidoo dealer stocks 800 etec and on average has their customers up and back running in less than a week…
yeah...because they go through so many Doo motors
It's unfortunate that you've had so many issues. Based on the forums I'm hoping your experience is one of the exceptions. As far as Cat's service, I honestly think it depends on your dealer. Over the years I haven't had a lot of issues but when I did I was back on the snow in under two weeks. I sometimes think ignoring the warranty and rebuilding stuff yourself might be smarter since that leaves you better in control than relying on a dealer that might not care or is just overloaded with service work.
