The guys on doo talk are screaming for sure! Long track vs. shorty, blah blah blah. Fwiw, I think both sleds rock, just a slightly different category. Looks like that 850 should be solid. Only time will tell. good to hear the IGX skid eats big bumps for breakfast. Next year will be a hoot. Can't...

Sorry. I thought you had a 440 fan cooled Fuji motor. I've got one in my 95 440 Sport Touring Indy. Check Rabbi's post about the needle valve seats. That's what made my XCR flood, even though they looked good. Also make sure the seats and gaskets are in place and tight. I put a dab of blue...

These old fanner engines are generally pretty noisy. If you haven't dealt with the flooding issue, it's a good idea to shut the fuel valve while the engine is running, let it run for a few seconds, then shut it off with the kill switch. That should keep your case from filling up with fuel. Not a...

If you have fuel in your crankcase from a stuck needle valve, it won't fire. Try pulling the case drain plugs and see what comes out.

That's hardly a confidence-inspiring name for a company! I don't know who makes them for Polaris, though. Might even be the same people. Darn outsourcing. I'd bet that a lot of sleds had that same coil/CDI. Too bad the Polaris parts site only goes back to 1985. Might want to ask around or call...

no such thing as too much power. just too little traction!

Is there a ton of melted rubber on the primary clutch faces? Try cleaning the clutch faces and slap a new belt on it. Sometimes a really messy clutch will drag on the belt, and idle will suffer. Your clutch may be stuck. You might try blowing the clutch out with an air nozzle. Cover the rest of...

Did you put the old spark plug boots on it? Also make sure the conductor on the boot is making contact with the center wire on the spark plug lead. Why did you replace the CDI in the first place, and is it doing the same thing it did before the new CDI? I assume you bought one of the Kimpex...

If you have good spark on one side, it is likely the coil. check it with an ohmmeter. both should be the same. is the CDI off a good running engine, or a new Poo or aftermarket one?

That stinks. I'd try to get them to do it for free, considering your inconvenience, gas, etc.

Tons of video of aftermarket cans and pipes on YouTube. Worth a look. I get ya that the Axys cans are almost too quiet, but remember that many trails are on private land, and you don't want to jeopardize keeping them accessible. FWIW, there are probably no aftermarket cans that will make a new...

My thought as always, is that you should be able to change gear ratio settings for the speedo through the PIDD or MFD. Apart from making money for the dealers, there's no reason this couldn't be made possible. I'm surprised Bully Dog didn't incorporate that feature. Would be pretty slick...

Hirevn- what altitude do you run at? Less density means less chance of detonation. You may be fine with 90 octane, but a pcv is always nice, if you have a suitable map.

Same to you. May we be blessed with abundant snow. Better late than never, eh?

Great report by DTR. Lots, and I mean LOTS of great data. If anyone here isn't a subscriber, they should do it right now. This may be the best deal in education anywhere! My only beef is that I was unable to get the dyno camera feed to work. I was a little disappointed in Aaen's pipe and can...
