Arctic Cat '07 650 H1 Belt Slipping?


Recommended Posts

I have an '07 650 H1. Recently, when trying to take off easy, it acts like the belt is slipping. If I give it the gas, it grabs and takes off. It has 1300 miles on it and it has never had water or mud in the belt housing.

I can think of no real reason why the belt should be worn enough to slip. Could there be some kind of lubrication problem not allowing the sheaves to move properly?

One idea is that if you stop suddenly the ctv does not have a chance to close properly wedging the belt and holding the sheaves open. When you attempt to pull away the belt slips (and chirps) into the lower position allowing you to have the proper gearing.

Secondly belt dust can be a problem even without mud or water in the cvt. take the footboard off and then the clutch cover. The two long bolts go towards the back. Make sure not to tear the metal gasket it is reusable. Then clean everything with brake cleaner if needed. Also check to see if the bolt on the primary is tight (if you never took the primary off then you wouldn't have to worry about this)

Finally I would be suprised if the belt was out of tolerance at those miles and you should be fine with a good cleaning. After you clean things up let us know if it is still happening and what kind of noise it is making ie chirp at start or constant squeel or noting.

Something similar happened to me this winter when I was plowing. I tried to push a large snow pile and glazed the belt by having it slip when attempting to move forward. I changed the belt with an older spare and all was fine. I was also told that you can attempt to remove the glazing with some fine sandpaper by sanding the sides of the belt lightly.

PS I added the make and model to the title

      2022 Sector 550, 414 miles on it and the gas gauge reads empty.  I topped off the gas and it didn't change.
      There is no fuse that I could find.  No access at the gauge cluster.
      Wiring on the top of the tank looks good, properly connected.
      Could the sending unit in the tank be stuck or broken?
      Has anybody removed the tank lid?  Any tricks?  
      Any other ideas?
      Thanks for any help,
      Clyde

      I just bought two 2002 Suzuki LT80K. Do I need to mix the gas or use straight unleaded?

      My 2008 can-am Outlander 800r is having hard shifting issues. Does anyone have a fix for this ?

      Hi everyone,
      Outlander 2006 400 XT i have replace the startor cover and right after i did that the oil light is on and not turn off, i check the wires and checked the oil level, everything seem to be normal quad is starting without any problem and rev just fine. i did not want to ride it since im not sure if it is faulty sensor or not so just be safe i did not let it run more the a minute or so. 
      I have read in the owner manual that i need to clean the oil strainer every 200hr unfortunately i never did that, my service manual that i have does not even indicate of such a thing. so i did some search around and it seem like canam split the manual into 3 parts
      owner manual
      service manual
      engine manual
      I have the first 2 but i can not find the last one, part number 219100232. If someone can guide me where do i find the oil strainer so i can clean it i will appreciate it.   im going to do an oil pressure test tomorrow to check how many PSI i have, just to make sure.
      Thanks

      I am working on a basket case for a friend.  It is a 98 Big Bear (YFM350FWB).  It came with a parts machine which is a 96, which I am coming to find out is VERY different from his machine.
       
      Anyway, first thing is first.  I checked compression, 150psi.  Valves are set correctly, and the engine is in time.  I cleaned the carb, and there was some junk in the passages.  It is a chinese carb, which I figured from the lack of markings or lettering altogether.
       
      The bike runs.  It idles ok, but breaks up badly under acceleration.  Pulling a new spark plug shows it is running lean.  White strap, with no black whatsoever.  So I have the carb adjusted with the mixture screw out way too much (about 5 turns), and the diaphragm needle lifted to the top slot.  It is still not getting enough fuel (or too much air).  It backfires through the carb, and cannot get above idle without carrying on.  The carb boot is in good shape, so it isn't pulling any air there.  I did test this as well by spraying ether around the boot when running, looking for intake leaks.
       
      Anything big I am missing here?  I am starting to believe that this chinese carb is the issue.  This quad came with the original carb, which I would like to rebuild and use, but the mixture screw is totally stuck, and stripped way down in its recess.  
       
      Thanks for any assistance.
