Tried disconnecting the battery and waiting for an hour and also tried the jumpercable to the running board but no go. I don't think it's the filters or fuel pump because when I ran it two days before I have plenty of power and there was no bogging down or sputtering. Battery is good and the starter cranks just fine it just doesn't fire. After trying to start a couple times the engine light comes on with 4 short beats. Don't have time to mess with it anymore right now. Do you mean that you have no spark? If you mean that it just won't run/start, have you tested for spark?

It’s a good thing that you’re not way out on the line with this type of problem. Flashing lights on the newer machines at 9 th and plumb aka 9 miles out and plumb out of sight isn’t good. Walking can be hazardous to your health here during conditions not conducive to walking that I have seen over the years trapping in the interior!
I ended up selling my 4 stroke SWT for a 570 Bearcat since walking wasn’t an option anymore! No orange lights flashing either anymore!.
Good Luck
I love the smell of burning spruce---I love the sound of a spring time goose---I love the feel of 40 below---from my trapline I will never go!

Yes, I pumped all the gas out of the tank which is something I should have done after I bought it last April. The guy told me it had sat a lot over the years, it seems that it had accumulated water in the tank. One of the sparkplugs was also fouled so replaced them. Put a whole bottle of the yellow HEET in the tank and filled it with fresh gas. Gave it a good run and it runs good, no more issues starting it. Also ordered some extra relays for both machines as I've heard those can be an issue with these ACEs. Good deal I have seen that too where gas/oil mix has been sitting too long. Gets almost slimy and slightly 'thick" Glad you got it going
