Vehicle Information
Arctic Cat ZR 800 Snowmobile (2001-2003)
The Arctic Cat ZR 800 snowmobile, produced from 2001 to 2003, was a high-performance machine powered by a consistent 785cc (or 794cc) liquid-cooled, twin-cylinder, two-stroke Suzuki engine, delivering around 140 horsepower. This model was known for its exhilarating acceleration and top-end speed, catering to riders seeking powerful trail performance. Throughout its production run, the ZR 800 saw significant advancements. While the 2001 model introduced the potent engine with Arctic Power Valve (APV) and chassis tweaks, 2002 marked a key development with the introduction of Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) as an option, alongside carbureted versions. The 2002 models also featured improved AWS IV front and FasTrack Long-Travel rear suspensions for enhanced handling. By 2003, the line largely transitioned to EFI, with the performance-oriented ZR 800 EFI Sno Pro trim built on the Gen-3 ZR chassis, offering aggressive suspension and adjustable handlebars. These changes represent distinct generational updates. FAQ:

Maintenance
| Component | Interval | Details |
| Oil Injection System | Fill as needed | Use recommended 2-stroke oil (e.g., Arctic Cat Formula 50 or C-TEC2). After prolonged storage, use one tankful of 100:1 gas/oil mixture in conjunction with the oil injection system for proper lubrication. |
| Drive Belt | Check monthly | Break-in period of 40 km at 3/4 throttle or less. Periodically check the belt for cracks, fraying, or wear. Replace if worn or damaged. In extremely cold temperatures, remove and warm the drive belt to room temperature before starting. |
| Spark Plugs | Inspect and replace as necessary | Recommended model: BR9EYA. Gap: 0.7-0.8 mm. Clean or replace as necessary. Continuous use of a gas/oil mixture in extremely cold conditions can cause spark plug fouling. |
| Air Filter | Clean after every ride or when dirty | Ensure the air filter is clean to prevent dirt from entering the engine, which can cause premature internal engine wear. |
| Coolant | Check regularly; replace annually or every 2-5 years | Check level and condition of hoses. Add properly mixed coolant as necessary. |
| Chaincase Lubricant | Change annually or every 3 200 km | Some sources suggest an initial change after 800 km, then every 800 to 1 600 km or annually. Best practice is to change it at the end of the riding season to prevent moisture during storage. |
Maintenance intervals are based on mixed sources. For precise information, please consult your model's official owner's manual.
