If the Can-Am's were hard to start during the break-in I don't think they would be very easy to sell. I wouldn't buy one if the salesman couldn"t get it to start. Yours was flooded and gas fouled the plug. I would change that plug. I bet it will start easy then.</end quote></div>
I thought that was a stupid statement, that Can-Am's are hard to start during break in. That is what the service manager at the dealership told me.
Thanks for the advise to change the plug.
I am not so sure the dealership I bought from has much experience with Can-Am's or if they are trying to brush me off because they know the 08' DS 450x's have some issues.
I would love to get some solid advise from an experienced Can-Am Mechanic.
Can anyone recommend a good Can-Am mechanic? Especially if they have experince with the DS series.

[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] Good Morning PSAR! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
26 and frosty over here, lot's of ice on the windshield when I went out to warm up the pickup.
SWMBO found a chair and a little cabinet thing for the bedroom yesterday. Found just what she wanted at the second store but we had to check out three more stores before going back to get them. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/img] Oh well, least we had a fun day and nice lunch together.
Wood cutting day today, sure seems like I'm using that quad for a lot of stuff around here. Things that used to require a tractor or pickup the quad gets done quicker and easier. Hear the same from other folks that use them around there places, things are handy like a pocket on a shirt.
Have a great, or whatever kind of you would like, day.
Mike
