I am rebuilding a 2004 Polaris 700. The bottom piece of the cylinder broke and seized the piston to the cylinder and in return bent and ripped the bottom piece of the connecting rod out of the crankshaft. I got all new parts for it and I am starting to piece it back together. My question is do I have to prime or bleed the oil pump after the motor is all put together and in the bike? I know on the 400 and 500 you have to prime/purge the oil pump after a rebuild. I’m just a little concerned as I know the lifters are hydraulic and the incorrect oil pressure can screw things up in the top end. Thanks I’m advance!!

Rust proofing
Looking underneath my Outlander I see the exhaust is rusting up and there are a few rock chips on black painted metal that are starting to rust.
So 2 questions:
Is there something I can apply to the exhaust to stop it rusting and to make it look prettier? Like spray on undercoat? Paint? Bed liner?
What about these small rock chip areas? Do you guys repaint those areas?
Thanks!

Michigan Ohio Indiana trail buddy needed
Thinking ahead even with a spring trip a little way out yet, but it takes time to communicate w/ one another making sure we might have things in common, could be so many things, but I'm pretty flexible, as long as I'm out riding trails, here in Michigan! Prefer a friend over 50 so as to have more in common, but I ride w/ my kids, and their buddies many times since 86, but their not able to ride this season. Get with me and hopefully we can plan a trip, as soon as weather is on our side, once again, Thanks, Steve
2004 Polaris 400 AWD sportsman 400
Good morning, friend brought in this 2004 Polaris 400 AWD sportsman 400 Independent suspension.
The rear suspension bushings on upper and lower control arms were worn out as well as the front side also, plus the rear CV axles boots and front left also where worn out. We installed all bushings, removed all three CV axles to install boots put everything back again.
When we started her up their is a grinding NOISE when shifting in reverse and low and it will not move on the ground, sometimes it will engage but turn off.
We jacked it up and the grinding noise is still their around the shifter linkage on the transmission, but the atv will engage in reverse and low and it runs smooth on the lift on all four tires, we disengaged the AWD and the rear wheels will run smooth by themselves also.
We spin the tires on neutral on the lift and they spin freely all four of them, everything seems to be in order like when removed it axles spin freely with no signs of binding or freezing up.
Did we miss something on installation? Hope someone can help.
Thanks

Timing issue ( maybe???)
Hi, I've got a 97 Scrambler. I was riding it around the yard and it ran fine. Parked it and had no spark. Traced it to pick up coil and replaced the stator assembly with a Caltric replacement and added a new ignition coil for good measure. Fired it up after replacement (ran great) and it went about 100 ft then quit like it was running lean. Pushed it back to the garage and stared to run tests on it. Here is what I found.
It has spark, big fat spark that will jump over 1/2 inch
It has compression 150#
The timing marks on the cam and flywheel align and the chain is tight( I see the T through the port on recoil and the pin on the cam is pointed to top of motor)
The cam seems fine, the rocker arms have plenty if travel.
The the pick up coil is gapped at .055"
I have bypassed a fuel issue by removing carb and spraying ether directly to cyclinder.
I have done the following:
Pulled flywheel and inspected woodruff key for damage
Check stator plate for alignment and the marks still line up.
Set valve clearance .006
Replaced plugs twice
Removed exhaust, carb and plug and let it sit for 24 hrs to clear any potential flooding.(it had no gas smell, header and plugs were dry but just in case)
Charge battery
Inspected all the electrical connections
And now I'm trying to turn over, spraying ether directly into intake (no carb) and it doesn't even so much as fart o backfire. Is it possible to be 180 degrees off on these motors? It seems impossible to me.

. Instead drink water as plenty as you could. Fat burners are a awesome way to lose weight however you need to not be only relying on them. Other than thatComputer Technology Articles you need to also pass for a stroll day by day
