I live in hazelton bc and have a 99 tractor.
Wondering if anyone could give some advice …
I recently did an oil change and used Lucas synthetic 10w40 wet clutch safe. Only now am I informed that synthetic oil is bad for this quad unfortunately.
After this I noticed a ticking sound in the engine that is directly related to engine rpms.
Over the days the ticking has gotten quite loud and sounds like its coming from the cylinder head.
Also just yesterday the quad has stopped shifting now. It’s stuck in 2ND gear and won’t shift up or down. When u press the shift button, you can hear the engine lag a little as it tries to shift but nothing happens.
And thirdly, now my temp light is on all the time.
I’ve stopped driving it since the non shift issue.
And have since done another oil change with non synthetic oil.
Is there a way to find out what the problem is with out buying that solenoid tester?
Or any tips on what I should do or what the ticking is?
Thank you!
