Arctic Cat Blast LT 4000 Snowmobile (2021-2024)
The Arctic Cat Blast LT 4000, available from 2021 to 2024, is a mid-sized sport utility snowmobile. It is powered by a 397cc C-TEC2 2-stroke, single-cylinder engine, featuring Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) and liquid cooling. This engine delivers an approximate "65-class" horsepower output.
Throughout these model years, the Blast LT 4000 has not undergone any significant generation breaks or major engine changes. The 397cc C-TEC2 powertrain has remained consistent. Updates were limited to minor enhancements, such as the addition of high/low settings for the hand warmers in 2023, replacing the previous on/off option. For 2024, Blast snowmobiles remained mechanically similar, with changes primarily focused on graphics packages. The primary trim offered is the Blast LT 4000. FAQ:

Maintenance
| Component | Interval | Details |
| Drive Belt | Monthly check | Check for wear, cracks, or stretching. Replace if any issues are found. A new drive belt requires a break-in period of approximately 40 km at 3/4 throttle or less. |
| Spark Plug | Annually or as needed | Inspect and replace as necessary. One set of spark plugs per season is generally adequate for moderate use, but more frequent replacement may be needed for hard riding. Always use Arctic Cat recommended spark plugs. |
| Air Filter | Inspect every 25-50 hours | Inspect before each ride, especially in dusty or muddy conditions. More frequent checks are recommended in these environments. |
| Coolant | Check before each ride | Check levels when the engine is cold. Replace at least once per season, or more frequently for high-performance use. Full replacement is usually between two and five years per the manual. |
The maintenance intervals below are general guidelines for snowmobiles. For exact specifications and maintenance requirements for your Arctic Cat Blast LT 4000, please consult the official owner's manual.
