    2002 Indy 500 carb issue

    Thanks. Operator error. Rushing trying to get it back on my sled and my 8 year old wanting his 120 out to ride at the same time the pan was twisted just enough to where the corner with the dimple wasn’t fully seated causing it to leak. 100 percent guaranteed I would be done with the issue but...

    2002 Indy 500 carb issue

    Well finally received the rebuild kit and I bought two main jets so all of the inside jets were replaced. Replaced all of the gaskets except the bottom of the fuel pan main center bolt because I wasn’t sure if the kit I bought came with that o ring. I even looked at them and said to myself they...

    2002 Indy 500 carb issue

    Yea I pulled up the schematic and pulled part numbers for all of the jets. That 500 xc had I thinks 390 main jet. The rest is the same. I pulled my carbs apart and the guy did get everything nice and clean but the left float prong wasn’t even touching the side walls. The right one felt a little...

    2002 Indy 500 carb issue

    So i just cross referenced off the Polaris site. The 96-2000 is the round tube carb so not the same. The 500 xc has all the same jets except the main jet. The main jet is different on xc compared to the Indy.

    Do you know what jets i would need and where to get them if you don’t trust the ones in those kits?

    2002 Indy 500 carb issue

    Thanks. Like I just told him in the text. I don’t care if it cost me 500 a carb. If it’s running right and I don’t have to be worried about getting stranded 14 miles out on an ice chunk at night by myself in no cell range I’ll pay whatever. I just need to get this thing running right and I’m...

    2002 Indy 500 carb issue

    Thanks I’ll check them too. I just talked to the mechanic and all he did was a carb clean. Some people! Yea the sleds older but it has low miles and I’ve put about half of those miles on and this sled it strictly for ice fishing so no wide open for hours. Yea I don’t have those tools to check...

    2002 Indy 500 carb issue

    Just drained the block and as I suspected it was full or what I would consider too much. Just checked the cylinders and when the one cylinder is at max height the other is bottomed out at max bottom and vise versa. They’re alternating 180 so my assumption is nothings bent and it didn’t spin out...

    2002 Indy 500 carb issue

    Thanks for a ton for the help. After watching a video last night of the professional tools they use to check the crankshaft alignment I came up with the dowel idea. Great minds think alike. I’m going to try that after I drain the system and see what it does. Fingers crossed it’s not but I have a...

    2002 Indy 500 carb issue

    Yea I’m beyond pissed. This is a referral From my local dealer because they won’t work on anything over 10 years old. I was skeptic after he didn’t get it right the first time . I did shut the fuel off. I will drain it tomorrow. Just take a can of fogging oil and pour it into each cylinder until...

    2002 Indy 500 carb issue

    Thanks. I’ll take a look. It flooded bad and I tried starting it prob 5 times and it was acting really boggy with heavy back pressure. I think fuel filled the cylinder and maybe the block. Would this have caused motor damage and if it did fill the block with gas how do I get it out of there...

    2002 Indy 500 carb issue

    I have a 2002 Polaris indy 500 with a carb issue. Started off with bad fuel from sitting. Took it to a mechanic and don’t think he replaced the o rings on the float assembly. Thinking he just did a clean because once I got it back it’s a tricky bastard to get started without flooding and it...
