    Sounds exactly like my 600XC did when I first got it. It had been left with same old fuel slowly turning to varnish for many years . Took pulling and soaking the carbs in berryman dip overnight. Good running sled once you get the previous owner's ghost out of them. They may not be new, but when running well they hold their own.

    Make sure you have the right plugs in it( really important) take the air box off and check to see if all the slides move up and down at the same time ( really important). I’ve got a 98 xlt I bought in 2002 and rode xlt’s since 1997. The Polaris big blocks I think are the best sounding sleds out there.also check the base for gas in the bottom, there are a couple of bolts in the bottom for drainage. If you have had carb trouble you probably have gas in the base.

      @@acidicbeatzz4758 check to see if you have gas in the motor base. There is a plug at the bottom of the motor. Your carbs might to be cleaned. You need to take off the air box and grab a mirror and slowly squeeze the throttle to see if your slides on the carbs go up and down at the same time.if you don’t shut off your gas the gas leaks into the base. Start you sled and shut off the gas and see how long it runs. With gas in your base it will run for a while

I Had noticed the coolant reservoir blows out coolant while riding (over flow bottle was filled up about half way when I started). I tried changing the head gasket to see if that would fix the issue but still seems to be doing the same thing.
      You got any thoughts what the issue might be??
      Thanks!

    Bought a 97 XLT special last year only 200 miles on it. Same has in it since 1997. Never attempted to even start . Pulled the seat off and drained and flushed 20 times or more. Pulled out line from tank and replaced with new filter and line and pulled all 3 carbs and soaked for 2 days. All fresh non ethanol fuel and runs like brand new as it should. Now I do not want to drive because it is a museum piece it’s so perfect. Truly a time capsule going to hang it up in my man cave. But yes I will lower it and drive it a little to keep it fresh.

    Since this video is gaining lots of traction at the moment, I want to clarify that the issue was bad fuel lines getting plugged because the previous owner never drained the old gas out and it sat for 10+ years. I appreciate everyone's advise but the snowmobile runs great right now!

      Yes I have a 650 triple and they will blow right up if they aren't broken down and rebuild at least every other year. The twins like the 400 and 500s can just go forever all dirty and shitted up. Literally zero maintenance required on the 440s and 488s

    Stop running it without the air box!!! You must run it with it Installed. It changes the fuel air ratio to the carbs bit more importantly stops snow and junk getting sucked into engine! If the box is lost at least install Uni foam filters for each carb. Oh maybe give it a compression test to see if all cylinders are good?
