Hi all,

So I just picked up this 2004 Predator 90 for $600 for one of my boys. Guy I bought it from has said it has sat in the garage for many years, his kids are now grown, so it it needs a good going through. I figure i need to scrub the carb and flush both the gas and oil tank good.
Here are some basic parts I think to start with:
float bowl gasket - I never have luck being able to reuse these....
new plug - NGK-BPR7HS
I need a new cooling fan duct and gasket - existing has split
air cleaner and seal

As for 2 stroke oil - what is recommended? Something like this: Amazon Amazon - or do I need the VES version?
Polaris AGL Synthetic Gearcase Lubricant and Transmission Fluid for the crankcase
Anything else from a maintenance perspective?

Also - since this a 2004, there are no lights. Can I buy the lights for a 2005-06 and put them in?

Thanks!
Joe

What kind of hitch bar are you guys using to haul bob sleds/box with tracks on?
Would I need a extended bar to clear the sleds hitch from tracks? Has anyone purchased one from canadian tire if available?

Does anyone know what size bolt/screw you need for the rage mount that mounts on the side of the radiator?

Hi folks,

Ok, so off the get go this hasn't had fuel in it for years, spraying a little either fired her up right from the get go. It has the 2 cycle tank in it and it does have oil in it but my question is how long can that oil stay good for, and 2 how would I know if it is pumping properly? I just don't wanna risk blowing the motor up because of impatience or stupidity. I figure once I get it running smoothly I will start taking things and changing them out like the motor oil. What other fluids are there on a 2 cycle that need to be changed?:wink
