I called my Yammy dealer to order one powervalve cable monday and they just told me today that they are backorder?? WTF?? i wanted to trailride so hard this weekend

What if i remove the powervalve with the broken cable?? it will act like if the valve is fully open?? Can it work???
 
It would be better if you could leave the valve in but somehow secure it open. Is there enough cable left over to "tie the valve up?
If you pull the whole power valve out you will probably end up with exhaust and black oil leaking out of the cable opening.

you can disconnect the cable and but leave in the valve. it will not have the same top end or low end response thou.


yeah, its why i ask about removing to valve or find a trick to keep the valve in the housing but in the "open" position

With just one valve not working, the difference in power is really noticeable

well, can i hurt something but just removing the valve?? other some oil splitting?

I wouldn't think you would hurt anything by just leaving it out...but I have never had to do it...Yet
You sure wouldn't want to miss a weekend of riding, they are far too few!

ITS unreal here! i live in NOrth CANADA and no damn snow!!! I never seen a winter like that .. I mean, we still see the grass in front of the houses!! Just enough snow to trail ride.. WIth the temperature right now, i dont think i will still able to trail ride by the end of the month!!

So, by removing the valve, i assume it will work like all the 3 valves are open when i will hit high rpm??
 
depends.I am guessing mine was open when I removed the outside housing.But the sled(2002) would blink the light yet and motor was being retarded or something.The servo motor didn't even wind back,so at idle the valves were all open all the time.Sled went "BLAH!" when I pinned it from a standstill,it wouldn't rev past 8000 rpm.
 
when i broke a cable i brought my cable to arctic cat n polaris n skidoos shops and got me a match dont really need the exact one has long has it's long enought and fits properly..

just got done riding around the capitol building heading for the white house down pennsavainia ave. then on to the washington monument. then i thought i might head to myrtle beach to gas up then headed for texas for more riding . boy this srx. get good gas milage
 
finally, i tried with the valve and it seems to work.. I dont see Oil splitting through the housing

I have less power in the low end range but in the higher range it work ok

i did purchase another cable from an ebay user
 
Wait for your cable to come in your sled will work ok at low speeds but anything over 60 mph and you are riding with friends say goodbye to you friends and if you do any kind of elevation riding it will run like crap and be very un enjoyable,just my 2 cents.

i will not have the cable until 2 weeks.. And like i said, i did ride the sled yesterday for testing and it was running fine at high rpm... All 3 valve are open, so, why i would have less power%
 
10 speed

take the controls off your old 10 speed and have 10D powervalves skidoo calls theres 3D now 10 must be better that 3
