Short Version: Need to replace cooling fan but not pay through the body part of your choice. Instructions online or take good pics when I take the thing apart?
Long Version: Riding in mountains of CO when overheat light came on and engine went in to protect mode. Cooled down, but noticed no fan running as it was the day before. Rode back to truck slowly in high, no light. Cooled down again, added small amount of antifreeze, then tested again in high gear for 7 miles at no more than 20 MPH when smelled something hot, with blue-ish smoke around the ATV. Cooled down and slowly road back to truck thankfully; no light. Dealer close by helped me verify that the cooling fan was dead. None in stock of course and days before repairs could even begin. Also, no immediate cause for fan to turn into blue smoke either, so a new fan could have the same fate. Ideas for an average guy with a socket set?
