    I am having a heck of a time trying to get the starter out. The service manual says there are two bolts holding it to the engine, but I can only access one, can't see or find the other one. I have removed the air cleaner box, recoil for pull start, rock protector plate and clutch cover. Is...
  2. ATV Repair and Maintenance
    Hi guys, I recent purchased a 1996 Polaris Xplorer 300 and I’ve run into a issue shifting from reverse to high. I got the engine to run perfectly fine, but once I took it on a test run it would only shift into reverse and low. When I tried shifting into high it acted like it was just in neutral...
  3. Polaris Xplorer and Xpedition
    My 98 xplorer 300 normally runs perfect, but on occasion, will bog and stall like it's running out of fuel. When I try to restart, it just turns over and backfires out the exhaust if I give it any throttle or hit the enrichener. Literally everything on the electrical side has been replaced...
  4. ATV Wheels & Tires
    I have searched but not able to find the exact answer. I have two 1994 300 4x4 xplorers. They both need tires all around. I know there have been a lot of questions about interchange and swapping tires but no detailed answer. I want to swap them too - but not for looks, or performance etc...
  5. ATV General Discussion
    Hello! I just bought a Polaris Xplorer 300 with the 2 stroke engine for my first toy. The wheeler's actually in decent condition and starts on first try. I'm just not altogether sure what to check on in terms of fluids, carb, belt, chain and things like that after getting an ATV like this. I'd...

    Okay, I have an issue, prolly minor to most, But major to me since i can not find any info on repair or replacement, and my first time working with them. Front left shock has come out of the boot inside the spring. I shoved it back in and continued home very slowly, had to repeat several times...
  7. Polaris Xplorer and Xpedition
    So far I have replaced the old fouled plug (cylinder has compression and there is spark), changed all fuel lines, put a new needle in the carb and a bowl gasket, as well as check for spark. On first round of trying to start it, I had the top cap off the carb and after a few pulls it started...
  8. ATV Repair and Maintenance
    So got a four wheeler from my step father and it needs some work and was going to get it in working order. It has been sitting for 1.5 years and I just started working on the easy stuff first. I put a new battery in and it fired right up drove it 15 feet and then parked it. The next day I was...
  9. ATV Repair and Maintenance
    Can anyone help: I recently purchased a 1996 300 xplorer 4X4 for my lady for mothers day. When I bought it the starter was out but it started with one pull. After she ran it out of gas and I had to pull the string about 100 times to get it started again I yanked the old starter and replaced it...
  10. ATV Brakes & Suspension
    Hi. I cannot seem to find anyone selling a heavy duty rear spring for my Xplorer 300 97'. The oem spring is in my opinion too soft, especially when I am carrying tools and stuff in the rear. It also gives less clearance to the trailer coupling. Does anyone know where to get a hold of such a...
  11. ATV Repair and Maintenance
    I own a 1996 Polaris Xplorer 300 (Got it for dirt cheap) and I had to replace the carb. The atv has very low hours I knew the original owner and he drove it once or twice a year. Once I replaced the carb the atv ran fine for some time. I returned home from a trip overseas to find out someone...
