2000 Phazer issues

[Michigan Sledder]

Hey Guys,

I just bought a 2000 Phazer with only 1030 miles on it, looks like new. I took it out this past weekend and was very happy with it except it is very twitchy in a straight line. it corners good but when you're on a straight part of the trail it wants to grab lines and jerk you around. Any suggestions?

Also, if anyone knows any jetting tips or go fast updates for this particular sled I would be interested in spending a few bucks on it.

Thanks.

check for bent/worn carbides, and then check toe/camber and ski alignment. plenty of info on this site for the above. still have the stock skis?

Yes, it still has the stock ski's and everything is straight. it doesn't appear to have been whacked. I have the manual and it says it should be toed out 0 to 15mm, I think it's toed in about 1/8". I find it hard to believe just that much off would cause this much instability but it's a good place to start.

Thanks.

Yes, the toe is a big factor. Also suggest a search about darting just to do some reading in case the toe doesn't fix it to your liking.
