mxturd Posted January 16, 2006 Report Share Posted January 16, 2006 Hey I have a arctic cat DVX 4000 and I rode it through some water and now a couple days later it starts and dies again immediatly,,If anyone has any suggestions I would appreciate it,,I was thinking that maybe some water got into one of the electric lines and is shorting thanks Doug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suzuki0702 Posted January 16, 2006 Report Share Posted January 16, 2006 i got a z400...and id start with the cdi probably...spray some oil down in the connecter...then check the harness...best bet is that damned harness...clean all ur connections real good brother...later...

fast87 Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 spray all connections with WD40, and check for rust..in there too, change spark plug, etc.. also ~Mark~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fast87 Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 i just got this idea...clean your air filter!! haha it sounds obvious and stupid but many people forget..it will run for a second on the air that's in the filter and carb/intake runner already, then when it needs more air it will die like yours..good luck ~Mark~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackharp Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 Try cleaning out the plug/cap, could have some h2o and shorting to the head (had same problem with a z400). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuntmasta3o5 Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 Is it that it fires up and idles and than shuts off or is it that it doesn't start at all? I suggest check your electrical wiring if it doesn't start at all.. It maybe some shit got into your carb.. Did you clean your filter?
