So have am having an ongoing problem with overheating. Went to take the thermostat out and do a bypass. Thought I should check the waterpump while I was at it. Took off the cover and all looked ok. Figured I'd start it up and see if it turned. It did not. It will spin by hand but not by the motor running. I'm figuring that it is either a go or no go gig. Am I wrong here? If not Crap, is this as big a job as I think it is?

2012 Can Am Outlander 1000 XT

Chris

A friend brought me what I believe to be a 2001 DS650 to work on. It doesn't run now. Says he had a cousin rebuild the carb and now it has no spark. Problem is the repair manual he brought is for a 2004 model. Are they the same or similar enough between the years or do I need to find a 2001 specific manual?

Any help would be appreciated!

1. here is the procedure to get any saved Fault Codes in your ECU.
Engine NOT running

1. turn key to lights on position
2. use Mode button and scroll to engine hour (EH) on gauge,
3. then press and HOLD the mode button while quickly toggling between high and low beam
(min 3 toggles (or more) in 2 seconds)
4. If there are any P-CODES they will be displayed..down below, scrolling Rt to Left.

2. a REMINDER from the Shop Manual: (fuel injection models)

"the IDLE SPEED IS NOT ADJUSTABLE". The ECM controls the idle speed of the engine..
NEVER ATTEMPT TO ADJUST THE SEALED IDLE STOP SCREW set at the factory.
If the adjustment is changed, the throttle body must be replaced"

Which oil change kit is used for the Polaris Sportsman 2015-2018 ? Item # 2877473 or Item # 2202166. One kit has a longer oil filter than the other kit.
Dealer gave me kit for long filter, Polaris web site says to use other kit ?

Down right depressing. Luckly it happened on the last day.Up to that point we had 300+ miles in
Blew up down at H&M.Running at @ 40=45 mph. NO light no warning just blew out both sides. Unfortunately the guy in back didn't have a gopro ,Would have been good footage with Flames blowing out the right side.Blew the starter off also
2015 850 @1400 miles.Anyone have any ballpark numbers what this will run in repairs and labor?

Hi there, new to the forum, and forums in general. I have a 1999 polaris xplorer 400 4x4. 2 stroke with the mikuni vm34ss carb. I have ordered a mikuni vm34-168 carb and I am not finding any information on if that will be a plug and play or not. I know the jetting is all a little different. My question is: can I run that carb without swapping main jet etc and just adjust to work or do I have to swap everything? I know the main jet was 210 on stock and 260 on the new one. 35 both pilots and 2.5 to the stock 1.5.... if someone has already done this please let me know what you did. I was going to rebuild the stock one but most of the parts are worn (like a failed rebuild from previous owner). The machine has 386 hrs and around 2500 miles. Most things work except the speedo and AWD engagement. Thank you for any and all info on this. Looking forward to getting it going again

Bought a used 2014 570EFI. Started at dealer fine. Got home, cranks but wont start. Charged battery, filled gas. Started for about 3 minutes, tried to put in gear and stahls out and now will not restart

Any suggestions on how to get rear prop shaft off. Roll pin it out and still can’t get it to bug
