7. Slowly depress the throttle lever to increase engine
RPM.
NOTE: Engine RPM must be allowed to increase
slowly.
8. Observe the tachometer and the drive clutch to deter-
mine the moment the carburetor safety switches shut
down the ignition. Since retaining the throttle lever pin
prevents the switch in the throttle control housing from
closing, the carburetor safety switches should shut down
the ignition at or slightly after clutch engagement.
9. Repeat steps 6-8 several times. If ignition shutdown
always occurs at or slightly after clutch engagement,
the carburetor safety switches are synchronized.
10. To complete the procedure, repeat step 1.
NOTE: After completion of any adjustments, throttle
lever “side pressure” should not cause an ignition
miss at idle. Carburetor safety switches set too low or
an excessively tight throttle cable makes the shut-
down system very sensitive to throttle lever “side
pressure” near idle.
Throttle Position Sensor
NOTE: Two-stroke engines equipped with a throttle
position sensor have a protective feature called “fail-
safe” ignition timing preventing engine damage
should the TPS fail. If the TPS does fail, the engine
may run normally at low RPM but will run poorly at
high RPM allowing the operator to get the snowmo-
bile to safety with no engine damage. The engine will
continue to operate this way until the TPS is adjusted
or replaced.
NOTE: On the non-turbo Bearcat/T-Series, remove
the air silencer. Proceed to Air Silencer (1100 cc Non-
Turbo) sub-section in Section 3 and follow steps 1-12
of REMOVING. On the T-Series turbo models, remove
the console and left-rear spar panel.
VERIFYING TPS ADJUSTMENT TOOL
Before using the TPS adjustment tool, verify its battery
condition. The battery used in the tool is a 9-volt battery.
To check battery condition, use a digital volt/ohmmeter
set on DC volt scale. Test between the adjustment tool
black and red jacks. Insert the red lead of the digital volt-
meter into the red jack of the adjustment tool and the
black lead of the digital voltmeter into the black jack of
the adjustment tool. The green power light of the ana-
lyzer should now be illuminated. If voltage is found
below 4.9 volts, replace the battery.
NOTE: The Test Harness must be plugged into the
analyzer for testing voltage. Always verify battery
voltage is at least 4.9 DC volts before testing TPS.
CHECKING TPS
NOTE: If the snowmobile is in warranty, breaking
the seal on the idle screw jam nut or the Phillips-head
screws on the TPS will void warranty. If the TPS is
tested out of specification, the throttle body must be
replaced. If the snowmobile is out of warranty, pro-
ceed to Adjusting TPS.
1. Using Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) Adjustment
Tool Kit, connect its wiring harness to the TPS.
2. On the 1100 cc models, connect the red tester lead to
the white adjustment tool jack; then connect the
black tester lead to the black adjustment tool jack.
3. On the 500/800 cc models, connect the red and black
digital voltmeter leads to the white and black jacks of
the TPS adjustment tool.
4. Ensure that the throttle cable/control rod (500/800
cc) has the proper amount of free-play.
5. With the throttle in the idle position, compare the
reading on the voltmeter to the chart. If the reading is
within prescribed specification, proceed to step 6.
6. Compress the throttle lever slowly to the full-open
position. The meter reading should show a smooth
rise in voltage all the way to the full-open position. If
the voltage seems to be erratic or doesn’t meet the
prescribed specification, repeat this procedure sev-
eral times to confirm results.
NOTE: If at any point throughout the throttle range
the meter reads no voltage (open), hold the throttle
lever in that position. If the voltage does not return,
the throttle body must be replaced.
7. If the full-open throttle voltage remains erratic or out
of specification, proceed to the appropriate Adjust-
ing TPS.
