Checking Spark Plugs
To see if the spark plugs being used are of
the proper heat range (after the snowmo-
bile has been operated under normal driv-
ing conditions), remove the spark plugs
and examine the condition of the center
electrode insulator of each spark plug.
AO352A
A. TAN or LIGHT BROWN insula-
tor indicates correct spark plugs
(heat range).
B. LIGHT GRAY or WHITE insula-
tor indicates over-heating of the
engine. This condition is caused by
a too lean condition or incorrect
spark plugs (heat range too hot).
C. BLACK insulator indicates fuel
in the combustion chamber is not
burning completely. This condi-
tion is caused by a too rich con-
dition, too much oil, or incorrect
spark plugs (heat range too cold).

NOTE: If the center electrode insula-
tors are light gray, white, or black and if
the carburetor adjustments (570 cc
models), oil-injection pump synchroni-
zation, and ignition timing are correct,
different heat-range spark plugs may be
necessary. Authorized Arctic Cat Snow-
mobile dealers have detailed spark plug
information. Consult a dealer before
changing spark plugs, as incorrect heat-
range spark plugs could cause poor
engine performance or engine damage.
Checking/Adjusting
Valve Clearance (1100
cc Models)
After 5000 miles or prior to seasonal
storage, valve clearance should be
checked and adjusted as necessary.

NOTE: Take the snowmobile to an

snowmobile owner.
CAUTION
It is critical that the checking/adjust-
ing valve clearance be done at the
recommended intervals or severe
engine damage may occur.
