How many miles to a gallon does the average snowmobile get?

Question

I just purchased a used 2004 Arctic Cat z570 yesterday and i was wondering how many miles to a gallon it should get. The gas gauge is broken so i do not know how to tell how much is left. Thanks in advance for your answers.

Answer 1

Riding on trails you should get about 12 miles per gallon, though in deep snow you will get a lot less, possibly 6.

Answer 2

Every snowmobile is different in gas mileage.  I would highly suggest picking up another gas gauge for it.

Answer 3

go to shadetree.com or denniskirk.com and order a fuel tank gage that is some what correct with reading the fuel amount

Answer 4

I have only checked once, but my 2002 yamaha viper got anaverage of 6.6mpg. There are many factors when calculating fuel mileage such as riding style (slow or wfo) I ride pretty hard, snow conditions, fuel quality (87 octane to 93 octane), your machines overall condition, and rider weight will all make a difference.
