Title: Artic cat overheating??
Post by: Gato on October 14, 2008, 07:35:22 PM
I have a 2002 AC 400 it is overheating according to the indicator but the motor doesn't seam to be hot to where you can't touch it but the light comes on anyway?
I changed the thermostat and cooling fluid, but it still does it.
I was told to check the water pump impeller but I looked it up and there are 2 seals that need to be replaced if taken apart.
I was wondering if someone here has done it and if so is it a DIY project or should I take it to someone?

no it has a radiator not just air cooled but yes it stays on all the time but when I first start it it is not on it comes on after about 2 minutes or a little less in idol
