Defroster vents

Hello all,
I'm considering putting a Summit racing heater in my HD5 and I'd like to use the "Cut Out" locations on the dash. Does anyone know where I can get the Can Am vents (or others that will fit in them)? I'm also building doors and any help on getting hinges would be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi everyone, I have a 2017 Outlander 850 XMR with a little work done. I am trying to find a complete rear drive shaft. Can I get some info for a solid replacement and I run 34" BKTs?

How Many?

Does anyone have production number on the ATV's, 2003-330 Trail Boss?, 2002-500HO Scrambler?, 2012-200 Phoenix?, 2005-800EFI Sportsman?

first time chiming in

have 04 outty 400-2010 800 xrm- have a buds system and can't get limp home mode off 800-doest seem to do anything it runs fine-man told me when it was a sensor -could it be for air suspension as I'm not sure if it still works I'm in fla do a lot of mud riding-

WTF– Snot in my carb?

My 94 big boss 400L 6x6 is has become very hard to start. It had sat outside for about 4 weeks and it rained heavy by SoCal standards for several days. Also all the gas in los angeles is e15...
So I was not surprised when I could not get in running. I was able to isolate the trouble to the carb. Inside a found a gooey white jello like substance. I've had to clean a lot of carbs over the years but this mush was a new experience.

I sprayed a can of carb cleaner which seemed to dissolve it but after that dried the snot turned into a more of a powder residue clinging to the surface. This is removable with a brush but not with the spray carb cleaner. After cleaning it as best i can, it started right up, but only ran for about 5 min. Took the carb apart and spent another full can of gum out carb cleaner on it. Once back together it started right up again but after about 10-15 minutes, it quit again.

Im sure it has something to do with me not being able to reach all the ports with a brush to get all the powdery stuff out. I also believe the e15 gas is the source of my troubles, but WTF. I've never had this issue with my dirt bikes, the old cub cadet tractor, my ancient 70's era argo, weed whacker etc etc etc.

Any ideas or suggestions are more than welcome.
Rick

2004 Polaris Sportsman 700

My friend picked up the quad for me so I haven’t seen it yet but I want to go through it when I pick it up next week.

My questions revolve around servicing/changing the fluids, checking valve clearances, cleaning carb(s) and greasing pivot points etc. The quad also needs a seat cover. Who makes a good durable one? I don’t want to buy sight unseen cheap vinyl ones on eBay if they are thin junk.

What are some problem areas to look at and what type of lubes are recommended for the drivetrain etc?

Thanks,

Joe

Polaris interbrand compatibility?

Hi All,
Does anyone know if polaris shares chassis parts with other brands of ATV's?

I once had a lotus car with a broken door handle. it happened to be the same handle as that used on a triumph spitfire... the triumph sourced part was far cheaper and more importantly...available!

I'm looking for a middle axle used on 90-94 Polaris 4x6's and 6x6's. Not a common vehicle. I've had no luck on ebay, powersportsnation.com or searching google.

Thanks
Rick

2094 Outlander 330 Fuel Issue Solved!

I ran out of gas as I was climbing up a hill dragging a small log.

No problem, I went and got the fresh gas can and added a gallon or so, put the gas away and stared the bike - strange idle, then no power as I pressed the accelerator. Could not drive it unless I 'choked it.' Problem with that was it was a one-speed solution: fast. It did allow me to finish the work and upt the bike away.

I came to these forums looking for help. I found lots of stories, a few suggestions and help finding and downloading Parts Diagrams and images that were to help me find my way into the bike, dismantle the fuel system, replace a variety of parts from the fuel tank to the carb jets and put it all back together again.

I think this happened in January (right before I found this forum). At some point, I made room in the basement and moved the bike down there intending to clear a workspace so I might perform "the operation" in relative comfort.

I cannot find all the posts I got involved with looking for help with my 330 (that one here suggested was a 'kiddie' bike!). I wanted to share how I finally fixed the bike in case anyone else with a basement runs into the same problem/issue.

I kept putting off the repairs thinking I needed more information before taking the bike apart and ordering parts or otherwise 'committing' myself and my bike.

Then, I needed to haul a log or two and figured I could make do using the CHOKING IT approach that worked to let me put it away a couple months back.

So, I went on down to the basement and moved the lawn mower out of the way and rolled the bike over to the door, opened it, closed the choke and started the bike. It took a bit, but fired up. I took off the choke slowly (didn't want it to die, just to get slow enough to put her in reverse and back out of there).

Needn't have bothered. Took the choke completely off and hit the gas a few licks. Surprised, I put it in gear and backed out of the garage as if it had just come from an annual tune-up at the dealers!

Ran it about tugging logs an hauling firewood with out a single issue!

Time, it seems, does heal all wounds!

Or, could it be the rest?

The basement storage?

And, I did not order a single part!

Such a technique!:smile
