Whats wrong with my Polaris ATV if it cuts off and shots a gunfire sound when trying to crank it up?
I just purchased a brand new 2011 Polaris Sportsman 400 HO atv and it cuts off in the middle of ridin and when i go to restart it a sound like a gun comes out the muffler what is wrong with my bike?
The safety provisions involved in the throttle lever is what is causing the cut offs and backfiring. The throttle push pad is protected in such a way that if the push pad is pushed back into the hinge point of the push pad the ignition is cut off. That way should something push back on the push pad the engine will shut off and not go on full throttle.
Frequently when grabbing the throttle during the start up process an inadvertent push is applied to the pad prior to its compression. You will notice when riding the engine cut offs happen simultaneous with you replacing your hand on the throttle. The sound of the gun at start up is the result of the ignition being off for a split second, fuel builds up in the exhaust system and is reignited.
This sounds like it's not possible but the concept can be easily checked out. Start your ATV and while it is running normally, try the following to prove or disprove my theory. Locate the throttle pivot pin, usually a stainless steel pin, that the throttle lever pivots on. Take your index finger and put it on the top of the pin and apply your thumb to the bottom of the pivot pin. Push the pivot pin lightly towards the front of the machine and hold it. The engine should die. If you are quick enough to release your grip when the engine starts to die it probably will pop and continue running. (I don't like to do the last move to my exhaust system though.) You will learn to "stroke" or slightly pull your loud lever and not slightly push or rotate it.
This system can be easily used by anyone who owns a backyard water feature. The system is self propelled. This means it requires no manual labor from the owner. Most owners operate the system while the filtration system is running during its normal scheduled period.
These systems are simple for anyone to operate. They are simply connected to the skimmer line or dedicated suction line. Then the cleaner is lowered to the floor surface of the area. It will then clean the floor and walls while the pump is running.
Unlike other systems, this one operates in both forward motions and reverse. This allows the unit to efficiently clean the entire area in a shorter amount of time. The three wheel design also allows the unit to operate faster than many of the other products on the market.
The system will pick up many different types of debris that is found on the floor and walls of the surface area. This debris includes dust, leaves, gravel, and other small items. It sucks these items back into the filtration system. This allows the owner to clean out the items when they empty the skimmer baskets.
The Polaris ATV pool sweep is an easy way to keep the area surface clean with little hassle. This mechanism works while the filtration and pump systems are on. They require little maintenance and care. This allows owners to use their time enjoying their water features without manually cleaning them on a daily basis.
By using the Polaris ATV pool sweep you can save time and enjoy your pool a lot easier without having to constantly clean your in ground pool on a daily basis. Take advantage of this precious pool cleaning tool and relieve the pain of cleaning the pool yourself.
