I have a 2008 outlander max xt and it has a back fire everytime i press the gas. I replaced the spark plugs, put a new fuel pump, cleaned out the gas tank and put new gas, did an oil change, and check the compression. The compression on one side is 150 psi, but the other side where was none at all but it starts and idles at 1400 when cold and when warm at 1250-1300rpm. Any suggestions what else i should check? Spark is good also on both sides.

Hi everyone! Just wanted to say hello and introduce myself to the forum. I'm from Coopersville Michigan (20 miles west of Grand Rapids). Bought a couple quads this summer one of which is a 2001 Polaris Xplorer 400. I call it... Brutus. I was totally blown away by the power the machine has. I purchased it from the original owner who used it only to plow his paved driveway and haul firewood from the woodpile to the house. So it is in really great shape. Came with a plow, tire chains and all the original manuals. I also purchased an Arctic Cat 250... which is an ok machine but nothing like the Polaris. I plan to move that one out in the spring and get another Polaris. Especially since I bought the cat for my wife and she has since claimed the Polaris as her own! I was really concerned that she wouldn't want to ride with me but it only took a couple times around the property for her to realize how much fun it is! So I'm really looking forward to next summer and vacationing with the machines in Northern Michigan. Hope you all have a fantastic Thanksgiving holiday! Peace be the journey!

I am replacing the trans on my 04 sportsman 700 carb and was curious as to how many years that trans is interchangeable with.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hey, so I was wiring up the new battery tender, and noticed the front two edges of the seat cover wearing. Have less than 500 kms on it. Has anyone else had this issue, how did you fix it, or should I talk to dealer as it is still under warranty.

Is it normal that the main relay on an Outlander L 2015 is always hot. I mean there is always 14v on the coil side of the relay.

Seems like the coils eat up 0,006A all the time and the batterie is drained within a month

Any input or electrical diagram that could help me

Just got me this. I was actually shopping for a used grizzly with power steering, but this is pretty much the only used decent ride I came across. 600 miles with 120 hours. It seems like it was barley used. I typically research the hell out of stuff before buying...if I would have on this, I probably would have passed. Just because I am seeing all these stories about the frames and timing chains. Anyways, I already got the 1.25 steel tubes to stick in the frame and a warn front mount plow setup coming. I do wish I could have power steering just for the woods riding that I do, but the power that this has makes up for it.

Just in case someone needs the size of the grease fitting (zerk) on the shaft, (below oil dipstick area), it is a "metric" 6mm, not a 1/4"-28.
I snapped mine, and had to replace it. Lol
Probably same size for most Sportsmans
