01 rmk 700 electrical?

[oredigger]

Working on a friend's rmk 700. Anyone have any suggestions?

Sled starts and idles fine but won't rev past 6000. It backfires and sputters.

It has good compression in both cylinders and good spark on both. We have tested the stator, coil, been through the carbs, checked reeds and boots.

Any ideas?

sputter

Try a different temp sending unit. Common failure and causes them to go into limp mode.

Additionally rule out the carb settings. Fire it up and when its doin its thing, hit the choke and see if it changes its problem. If its running lean, it will get better and if fat, it will get worse. If it has no change, its prolly not the carbs.
