Polaris Starter Drive
Small engine repair - Snowmobile?
I recently did a top half motor rebuild on a 3 cylinder liquid cooled snowmobile (1996 polaris XCR 600 SP). I got the machine running and it seemed to run fine when i did a short test drive on 2 occassions. on the third attempt, i added a little more anti-freeze to the resevoir as it was a liitle low. when I pulled on the starter cord it was a little hard to pull but eventually it started. It seemed a little boggy but i didn't run it long when i noticed that the anti freeze was pouring out of the overflow tube. i shut it off and a few minutes later opened the resevoir cap, knowing it was still cool, and anti freeze came blowing out of there. anybody have any idea why there was so much pressure and why the engine was hard to pull over? is the anti freeze going somewhere in the engine block where it is not suppose to. what is my next step to check? thank you.
sounds like a leaking head gasket or cracked head
What is the value of a Polaris trailblazer 250?
Im considering buying a Polaris trailblazer 250. 2004 i believe, 2 wheel drive, 15 running hours, 2 stroke, automatic, electric starter, bought for 1950, being sold for 1500. This a reasonable deal?
I didn't think 2 strokes came in automatic. I think it sounds reasonable. 15 hours is low time. I put 15 hours on mine in 3 days when I first got it. Even if it is just two wheel drive you'll be able to do a lot with it. I love my 2001. Got mine for $1300. It's been worth every penny. Just maintain it and it should last along long time.
