x2 800 running on 1 cylinder

2007 x2 800, recently started running on 1 cylinder, I each plug to verify and yes. The slug that ain’t working seemed to have lots of compression according to my finger, spark was there when i grounded it, so i figured gas?? put back together and started it, wiggled the injector and it started running on both. took for a ride then back to 1. Where to start? Thanks

Voltage regulator 2015 sportsman 1000

I’m getting an OV reading on my display showing a voltage output varying in excess of 17.5. Machine was just serviced and had hand warmers and thumb warmers installed by dealer. First ride since and I’m running into issues. Power steering shuts off, display turns off and once at an idle voltage returns to normal. Any thoughts? Thinking voltage regulator, metered battery and it’s around 14.2 while idling.

Voltage Regulator wiring – 04 Polaris Sportsman 700

Have 2004 Polaris Sportsman 700 Twin.
Battery light has been coming on. Thought I’d try a new voltage regulator before looking at the stator.
I purchased an after-market regulator, but wires are in different places. Also, only one yellow/red wire with the new regulator and two solid yellows (instead of two yellow/reds and one solid yellow with old regulator).
Can anyone look at the attached photo showing the old regulator on left and new one on right and tell me if I have the correct yellow wires going to each?
Many thanks.

Trailblazer mystery read axle?!?!? HELP!!!

While replacing my rear housing bearings and seals, I had to cut off the jam nuts. I ordered replacements but the thread pitch is too fine. The nuts I ordered are the correct part for my 2000 trailblazer but I’m wondering if my rear axle is not original to the bike. The nuts I cut off have 10 threads (fingernail counting) but the ones I ordered have 15 threads. Other than the pitch they are identical. Was there another year that had a different thread pitch? Dealer cannot answer my question.

I found the following stamped on the end of the axle. Can’t tell what numbers…Attachment 26995

I also found the part number for a 2000 TB rear axle 5133181 which looks like the number in the pic. I’m hopeless!!
