I decided to start another project. I have an old Polaris 6x6 that hasn't run in five years or so, due to a knocking in the engine. I pulled it out of "storage" and cleaned it up. I messed around for a while and got it running. The knocking was still there, it is not a super violent knocking...

Alright, I think I have got it figured out! The 02 sportsman 700 literally overfills every carburetor I’ve put on it... I’m thinking fuel pump is dumping to much fuel.. it is original and has been opened up before because it was clogged.. Can that be my issue.. the bike will start up, not easy...

Was hoping someone could help me out. Been having troubles with a magnum 425 will start up good after a second or two of idling starts to choke out and smoke from the first set of springs on the exhaust pipe a few inches off the engine. Also as soon as I turn the fuel on it starts leaking...

I’ve had this 2004 sportsman 700 late model for about a year now and it’s been through multiple carb rebuilds. I’ve got it to where it’s as dialed as it’s ever been but it’s never perfect. Sometimes it idles up at 1400-1500 rpm, sometimes it’s down at 800-900 rpm, and sometimes it’s perfect at...

No means to bring up an old topic for an old bike but this is very weird. The bike is a 2002 Sportsman 700, I just put two fresh gaskets in my exhaust trying to fix the leak and glowing red hot manifold, it is still doing it. It only glows under load, at idle it is good. Also my manifold did...

New guy here in Need of help... Buddy of mine basically gave me a 99 Xplorer. Lots of issues so I’ve been tackling one at a time. Got it running and runs well. Tested voltage and it was over charging. 17.5 volts at the Battery. Purchased new rectifier that says it replaces the old one...

I've got a 95 polaris explorer 300 4x4 and its gives off an annoying tick when I let off the throttle but nothing at idle. Or while throttling up in N just after letting off the throttle. Also a very bad engine vibration at idle. And something very odd I noticed, while the engine was warm i...

I bought a '06 outlaw 500 yesterday and it ran fine and started multiple times no problem. Started fine when I pulled it off the trailer and I rode it around for 5 min and started sputtering so I turn it off to check if the fuel was on. Fuel was indeed on but now it won't start. It has spark and...

Does anyone know the size of the nut on the bottom of the ball joint? Like thread size so I can find one at Lowe’s? Mine is stripped and I have a new strut on the way but the nut is missing.

1996 sportsman 500 Replaced everything. Starter, solenoid, rebuilt carb, new battery, spark plug, air filter. Still won’t turn over. It just clicks. Something isn’t connecting and I’m out of ideas. What do I need to do to determine the problem?! Backstory. Was out running it, put it in neutral...

First off, hello! I am so excited to begin my journey as an ATV owner. I have rode and driven my families for years growing up, finally now taking the dive into owning my own. So, yes, I bought an older model, mostly wanted a 2-up with low miles and the 2008 is what I ended up with. I took...
