Hey everyone I’ve a 1993 350cc Polaris 4X4 it’s has new piston and rings, had the head sized for the new piston and rings. I tried a compression test on it today and it’s running 100 psi and I’m just wondering what could be the problem for it running so low? Any advice would be great cheers 🙂

Ok guy and gals im in need of any and all opinions here. This quad has been a tuning nightmare since the rebuild and cam and cdi. My mods are in my signature.
Starting from the beginning.
After i did all the mods i trial and errored some jetting and i landed on a 185 main jet needle one clip down and a 42 pilot at around 2-2 1/4 turns out. Started cold great. Had an annoying idle hang once it was warmed up and while i was riding. And it seemed like it was getting really hot on the engine on long trail rides. Classic lean pilot symptoms. I tried turning mixture screw out more around 3 turns out and it ran no better just seemed to lose some off idle power. Didnt pull near as good out of corners in 3rd as it did with the screw down around 2 turns. So i ordered the 45 pilot jet……..
Put it in tonight along with adding a SPAL fan on the oil cooler to just keep it alittle cooler on long slow trail rides and i put the mixture screw at 2. Wouldnt even start unless i had the idle screw turned all the way in. Idles like absolute crap. And the side of the engine even with the fan on got so hot i couldnt touch it in about 3 minute idling in the garage. Tried adding even more fuel with the mixture screw made it out to around 3 turns out and again nothing changed. But i was able to get it to idle with the idle screw turned about half a turn from as tight as it goes. Im so fed up with all this im about to just buy a new carb and try that. I have cleaned the mixture screw and its seat and the carb is absolutely spotless inside the bowl and everywhere else i have looked. Any input from anyone is greatly appreciated!
Front end noise not always but just 5 times in a 4 hour trip. in the video it shows me undoing the locker but it happened 4 other times without doing that but always and only wile in 4 wheel drive. any ideas what it is? low hours and millage on this atv
Copy and past youtube video please
Hi everyone, new member here from Ontario Canada. I don’t have a grizzly right now, but I have a new one coming in two weeks, I bought the dealer demo and he can not release it until July 15. It is a 2016 Grizzly EPS SE in the metallic grey, very stoked for this new ride! My current atv is a 1993 Kawasaki 400 Bayou, so it will be a HUGE upgrade for me! I have passed the old Bayou on to my 15 year old son and he is pretty proud to have his own atv! My wife has a Hinda, but I will try to not hold that against her.
Any insight you may have for me in regards to my new ride would be appreciated, I have swapped out the stock tires for a set of Zilla’s, will also add a "drivers resting area" travel box to the back rack, RAM mount for my Garmin GPS, Kimpex Klick and Go 2 snow plow and maybe some auxiliary lights too. Got a set of Kimpex Commander all season tracks on order for it too that I will pick up in the fall…going to have some winter fun!
Back story,
Bought this off craigslist several months ago. Pushed it off trailer beside barn and left it till now. Guy said it ran but smokes, I decided to pull it into the shop and tinker on it last night. Low and behold the first push of the starter fired it up. Then I found this….LOL
I’m not sure how it was even running. To top it off this is the quietest smoothest 300 motor I have ever heard.

I have a quart bottle of this I had around in case of needing to add oil- never needed to add any. Always bought 2 quart jug since then so this bottle has been sitting around. There is no viscosity listed on this bottle and part number is different. Is it save to use on my next oil change with a quart of the new 5w50? Or is it a drastically different oil?
