  • @andrewkurtz8646
    @andrewkurtz8646 2 года назад +30

    The kill switch can be unplugged and it will run fine. It's a open loop system. Alot of people bypass them because the washers In the throttle lever go bad and create spark issues. Keep that in mind

    • @kevins9576
      @kevins9576 2 года назад +3

      Or you can do a little snip snip on one of the wires, disabling the throttle safety switch and still have use of your kill switch. I would personally get a new throttle block and plastic washers but that's your call.

    • @camaro69green31
      @camaro69green31 2 года назад +2

      I've unplugged everyone of this generation of Cats Kill switch that I have owned and many of others that I ride with. I've gone over the bars a few times when you dive into a ditch and PIN it and the throttle cuts out.... not fun. Kill the kill switch on these Cats and you solve a lot of ignition issues.

    these vids have been a dik tease, they need to be much longer. glad u guys have got the sleds working, any update to the snowmobile trip to maine? that zr800 is a good pick to bring up, seems like its in the best shape.

  • @thekingofdarts
    @thekingofdarts 10 месяцев назад

    There is one way you can instantly tell the kind of owner that these types of sleds have/had. The presence of coupler blocks in the rear skid.
    Those CCE's were some of the best sleds that Cat ever made.

    The kill switch was unplugged because a lot of time people have issues with em on these cats, the tss is a pretty common failure on them. It’ll run without it plugged in; easy way to bypass

    Make sure you put the carbon overload bars up so the suspension will be even stiffer. They're meant to be used for 2 people and then it's a soft ride when there's only 1.
