Hello everyone,
I just picked up a 96 MXZ 583 and I don't know much about the rotax engines. So I have noticed that the sled has been really smoky even after warm up..the side of the sled at the exhaust port is black and it seems to be sluggish...from what I have read these sleds should reach over 100Km/H no problem but mine has a struggle and takes a bit to get there.the sled starts no problem and idles around 1800 rpm. It has fresh gas in it. I took a part the carbs and looked to make sure they were clean.. don't know what the factory settings are for the carbs. Cleaned the rave valves they were caked, again don't know the factory settings for the raves ..looked at the plugs they are fairly black...any help would be greatly appreciated
thanks in advance
