arctic cat secondary

I think that any of the cat secondarys with the exception of maybe the big twins will work.But you will have to change the jackshaft on you SRX because the cat and polaris have a 1" shaft with a keyway and your SRX has a spinded shaft, the shaft you need is getting hard to come by but i think ...

84 troubles.

That is common with the 84 's to have a broken stator . Try to get one from an 85 or 86. There was a stator change in 84 , they are differant then the 83's , they have a extra coil for hand warmers , and the plate was week so in 85 they changed to a stronger plate and that solved the problem. The 87...

Dennis It sounds like the trottle cable is not set right and it is holding one or both carbs from returning to normal idel , that is why it revs so high. That will also cause it to start hard when cold . Also The 83s trottle cable was a little to short , and this would cause this also, if you look, ...

108 comets

I think the problem that everyone is having with the 108s is the installed height of the spring.Comet says in there manual that the spring has a installed height of 2 3/8 inches and a full shift or totaly compressed height of 11/8 inches with the 102s that is the case ,but with the 108s , they measu...
