Carburetor Jetting - Polaris Outlaw 450 MXR LE Owner's Manual

Maintenance

Carburetor Jetting

Carburetor re-jetting can be performed to compensate for altitude and/or temperature
changes. If the vehicle is to be operated at various altitudes and temperatures, certain adjust-
ments can be made to improve its operation and driveability. Above 6000 feet (1800 m) the
engine air/fuel mixture becomes overly rich. An engine loses approximately 3% of its power
for each 1000-foot (305 m) increase in elevation. Although this power cannot be regained,
changes to the carburetor and drive system can be made to allow more efficient operation.
NOTE:
Contact your dealer for altitude adjustments. Your dealer has the training and special tools
required to perform these modifications.
