hi folks, would love some help with my AWD on my ’14 570 EPS.
Noticed my FWD stopped functioning recently while out on a ride.
Upon closer examination, I also noticed my pinion gear seal was leaking, so that gave me a good excuse to replace the fluid, replace the seal and see if new fluid fixed the issue. No such luck.
I put it on stands to see what happens in 2wd and awd. Front tires spun with the backs whether I was in AWD or just FWD, essentially no difference.
I could also free spin either front tire with no affect on the other front tire, and thats with machine and ignation on or off, in either 2wd or awd.
What do you all thini? Do i have problem with the central hilliard clutch or is this a voltage problem. I opened up the fwd/awd switch on the bars and made sure the circuit is opened and the front tire still spin.
Thoughts anyone? Diff’s not making any weird noises. The stubby pinion shaft seemed pretty solid (no play) when I replaced the front shaft seal.
I bought this a few years ago, rebuilt carburetor, new needle and seat, adjusted float height, idle air screw set at approx 2.5 turns. New fuel cock, inline fuel filter, valve clearances checked, air filter replaced, excellent compression. Starts great in warm weather, when down to 20 deg F or below, can be very difficult to start. I took the carb off the other night, found the intake pipe cracked at the corners, replaced with OEM, and new oring. Reinstalled everything, starts fine in garage but I notice when it is running I can pull the choke out fully the engine does not die out like I think it should. Does anyone else have this issue? I removed the choke control, oring looked fine, cleaned out the ports for the choke again with carb cleaner. Same result. The maintenance manual I have is very vague on this. Currently parked in the garage with the snow plow attached because I can’t be sure it will start when cold in the barn. Any help much appreciated.
Hi. Recently i have done a top end rebuild on my grizzly 600 and took it out for a test drive the other day and it was running great, so back to the van to take home but while on tickover it just stopped and all i get now is the oil temp light come on with start button,
i have checked most the connections and all seem to be ok have tried a different starter soilenoid still the same problem i have crossed the solenoid teminals and it turns over but does not start so checked spark plug and there is no spark.
if the stator or pickup coil is faulty will this stop it from turning over, i have ordered a tester to check these parts, so any help to resolve my problem i would be very thankfull for your assistance.
What are the trailer considerations for ATV/UTV’s?
I use an open trailer (5′ X 8′) for my ATV, and it works great except I have to remove the windshield for travel. I am going to buy Pioneer 1000, and I’ll need a bigger trailer to accommodate the bigger machine. My travel miles will be not be very extensive. I have never owned and enclosed trailer, and I’m wondering if going that route would be the best choice. One disadvantage is that the tongue weight is about 200 lbs. and it would be a pain to get hooked up. On the other hand it would serve as a great place to store the UTV.
I will have to go 7′ wide in order to have room to get in and out, and I think I will need at least a 12′ long trailer. For some reason, most if not all, manufacturers go 14′ long when the trailer width is 7′. The new machine will be about 10′ X 5′ 3", weight 1526 lbs., and I using a Toyota Sequoia (similar to a Tahoe) to tow it with.
Two other general questions are single axle or duel, and aluminum vs. steel.
As I said, I don’t have any experience with an enclosed trailer, and any input would be appreciated.
I am working on my atv that is lacking power and was overheating. I solved the overheating by changing head gasket. It still will not go over 35 mph. I am wondering if it could be the camshaft. The rocker arms seemed to move fine. It has a fairly new stator. The compression is 160 in one cylinder and 180 in the other. Is 180 too high? This made me think it could be camshaft. Thanks for any input.
I ditched my Polaris this summer for a brand new 2015 Grizzly special edition stealth black. Wow this thing goes everywhere. I’m very impressed with it. I have 500 KM on it now. Riding in deep bush and muskeg areas of Alberta. Had my first true winter ride last weekend. 73km in one day of technical terrain. It was AWESOME!
