Does anyone know of a model of '01 700 RMK's that has a single carb?

I know I don't... every 700 RMK I've ever seen regardless of year was dual carbs...

The reason I ask is because I ordered a new choke cable for my 700 off of Pat's Small Engine online, from their chart for an '01 700 RMK, and they sent me a choke cable for a single carb.. not dual.. And now they're trying to hit me with a restocking fee and shipping fees to send it back.

You guys can even check me, even though I checked and re-checked.

I very highly doubt there is a model with a single carb.

After all I dont think there is any variation of the RMK

if it has the mikuni flat slides on it which it should its only one cable keihn carbs were the two cables

 

[ppolaris1010]

im guessing yours is a 2000 not a 2001 01 they had mikuni 00 they had keihn carbs unless polaris had to get rid of the keihns and yours is an early model

yep, so I went in and talked to a buddy, and he said the same thing.. I have a 2000, not a 2001.. which makes little difference to me, other than the fact that I am now the proud owner of a new choke cable that I can't use. So... now I gotta get another new choke cable.. for a 2000, and about the only place you can find them is direct through Polaris, so much more spendy... $59 versus the $17 I paid for this one. lol. Grand...

At least, that's what my bud told me, and after looking around I'm inclined to agree with him, I can't find a cable that says 2000.. just '01's, and '02-'05 or whatever... balls...

Denniskirk? Als Warehouse? MFG Supply? Ebay? CL??

hmm, didn't think about Al's... I'll look, might get lucky and they may have a brake cable that I just made another post about..

 

[Outlander33]

no joy, even on Al's

Polaris uses the same part number for all the Liberty twins from 1996 to 2000 (600, 700, and 800 XC, SKS, RMK.) I would think that a snowmobile salvage place would have what you need with that many sleds to choose from!

hmm, thanks Dan, little late though, already have the part ordered. Heh, oh well..

I would have typed faster, but I was out in the garage looking to see if I had a 2-wire choke cable in the junk box. I found a couple of throttle cables, but no choke cables! Sorry

Oh well, new parts last longer than old parts, right?

yep yep.
