11 summit 800 etec problem

[Wingnut82]

This is my first skidoo sled ive always had cats prior. Started sled today and idled fine went to start riding it and when i would get on it it would sound like it was loading up. Hold the throttle steady and it would run fine. I stopped and then it just started idling low and bog when i hit the throttle. Came out of it once but then didnt stop acting that way. Got it home and it died and would not start. Right plug looked fouled. The gas that was in it im not sure how good it is beins it was in there when i bought it back in november. Would bad gas cause this problem? Or what else? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!

Sled will not fire. Mag side plug is wet and pto side looks good. Can barely see spark on mag side. Bad plug? sled has estart only. Any suggestions

Maybe a weak coil and or plugs. How many miles are on the sled and have you ever replaced the plugs?? Had a coil go on my wife's 11 800 etec last year really randomly also replaced the wires, when I pulled the one off that the coil went bad on it was like burnt and cracking. If you can get a spark tester light wire that really helps identify a wire, coil, or plug. Hopefully nothing before that is bad.

Sounds like bad gas to me. Just drain your tank and rinse out with feash gas and replace with ethanol free supreme unleaded and new spark plugs bet it will run better. i just did that to mine after burning the gunk out of the carb runs sweet good luck.

Bad gas. Suck out as much as you can and always run 91. Might take a tank or so to get her running top notch. Ive had the same provlem in the past

Drained all the gas and put new plugs in as old ones looked like crap. Runs great now. Ive only had the sled since november. This is my first skidoo. It has had the top end recall done already along with new injectors. Thanks for the help
