There is a piece of debris floating around in the sediment bowl of your carburetor, its lodged in the high speed jet causing it to stumble and backfire......it will most likely need a carb rebuild average repair cost on this machine is around 150 dollars at a reputable polaris dealer

Testimonial: "thanks I'll clean out the carb and see "

Why won't the display screen on my 2008 400 Arctic cat turn on and why will it not start from the green button?

Check the charge on the battery, should be at least 12.6 Volts DC, then look for loose or corroded connections, starting with the battery cables.

I have a 05 arctic cat 400 atv. My problem is that it's has constant fire to the coil, with the key off and I can't figure out why.

sounds like the switch may be shorted, or a wire(s) have shorted to one another.... Find the plastic connector for the switch and unplug it... it should not fire.. if it does.. maybe someone has hot wired it??? ... BE CAREFUL!!

The starter engages and starts the motor fine when the motor is cold. however if you ride and try to restart the starter just spins and you can only start using the kick stater.

2004 automatic arctic cat 500 atv with a keihon carborator - starts up and idles. drive and stop and it boggs down and stalls. try starting and it starts right back up. Any ideas?

sounds like it has been sitting, if you have never rebuilt a carb, best to bring it in,, the main jet is probably all gummed up,, you can try draining all your tank gas,, spraying carb cleaner into the carb after removing air cleaner but that really wont help out the main jet.. Stabil is a good product for gas if you are going to store your ride for awhile, it also acts to clean carbs while using a small amount when you fill up.

Why does it backfire and quit after riding for 1 hour?

is it running out of gas? backfire is caused by a lean condition. I'd check the fuel path from the tank to the carb and clean the carbs. could have something floating around in there occasionally blocking fuel flow.
