I had a guy message me about a garden tractor I’m selling & offered to trade a 1996 magnum 425 that looks to be in really nice shape, is suppose to run and drive really well, goes into high & low just fine, but will not go into reverse.
I’ve never wrenched on a Polaris that old & am looking for some insight on what the problem may be before I get back to him.

I got a new battery & solenoid & only way I can start it is by jumping the solenoid. Pull start has no guts in it. Fires right up jumping the solenoid & it’s the 2nd solenoid I tried & no clicking or anything from it

Anyone know how to tighten the chain on these bad boys? Also, has anyone used Amsoil in the transmission? If so how did it work and what did you use?

So what is everyone doing to protect the electrical from water and mud

Alright I just purchased this atv today but it’s going to need tires sooner than later what should I be looking at for tires I plan on trail riding and some snow/mud bogging

Can you swap a 300 2 stroke into a 425 magnum frame? I have a good running 300 2×4 that I want to have in the 425 4×4.

Hey Everyone, new to the site. I inherited my late father’s 99 magnum 500 and it has been sitting for a long time! The carburetor is so mucked up that several techs have told me it’s almost un-repairable. SO, from my research I find that the carburetor is a one year/model only. First, is there a carb off another model that will fit it? Or, is there a rebuild kit for it somewhere? Can’t believe that Polaris would make something that works for only one year! I’m told the PN is: 3130958. Any help would be great. Thanks!

Hey, I’m hoping to get some advice. I’m trying to figure out what’s going on with this atv before tearing everything apart. It starts up fine and will idle but as soon as you give it gas or try shifting out of park it stalls. After it’s been running for 15mins or so it’s just fine. Do you think cleaning and rebuilding the carb will fix this or is there something else I should look at first?

Thanks
