I have a ’97 Wolverine that I am at my wits end with. I have read many threads and tried many things but still won’t rev and the head pipe is red hot. It has a K&N filter and full exhaust with no packing. Here’s a what I have tried.
Jetting:
Pilot Jet: 45
Fuel Screw: 1/2 turn to 4 turns
Main Jet: 140, 150, 160, 170, 180, 190
Needle: Stock with clip on 3 and 4
Notes. Increasing to a 45 pilot stopped all the popping. Doesn’t pop at all now but pipe is still bright red.
In addition to the carb changes I have adjusted the valves to .004 and .008 intake and exhaust. Changed out the cam chain and set the timing. The key on the flywheel is good. Checked the cam and rockers and they all look good. Unplugged the parking brake. Unplugged the reverse switch, grounded the reverse switch. Ran it filter on and filter off. Choke on and choke off. Hooked up an external fuel tank with fresh fuel. New spark plug. Plug tip is black. Nothing I have tried has made it rev out. Top speed is about 10 mph. I am open to any suggestions you may have. At this point I’m not sure there could be a bad idea unless it’s about tire pressure or grips or something. Thanks in advance. Not sure what else to try.

So I’ve been reading here, there, everywhere and I can’t seem to get a good answer or a solid answer if I have Worry about my plastics melting off my brand new 570. It’s a 2016 model 570 eps. I read that the late 15’s and newer Polaris’s had added heat shields to the exhaust and something to the seat and gas tank???? If they did that’s great, if not I’d like to prevent my plastics and leg hairs from melting off and try to do some kind of preventative repair so I’m not eating the cost of new parts on a new machine. Let me know what everyone has experienced on the 16′ and up models and if it’s still a problem what everyone is doing to fix it. Thanks!

We have a 1986 250 Fourtrax we are selling that was passed down to our family from our parents. It is in great condition and runs great also. The electric start does not work- sure it is the starter motor and the front brake master has never worked since new. It has large front and rear factory racks. Can someone give us a ballpark figure on what it’s worth? We are selling everything to fund missionary work. Thanks!
PS light on checked all connections and fuses all looked good put a battery charger on battery for a full charge cant see anything visually wrong called local dealer told me they normally will kick off if battery is low and he said there is a way to reset it but wouldnt tell me how of course they want the business. Does anyone know how to rest it? 420 rancher manual foot shift 4X4
I got a 98 Grizzly 600. There is a whine in the front differential. It is not there when its coasting so I thought I would check the gear lash and see if it is in spec. I didnt think it would help, but I changed the fluid just to see if it would help….. it didnt. It might be the bearings, I have not got into it yet, just trying to get my crap together before I do.
A couple questions about measuring the gear lash. In my CM it shows a diagram of where to measure the lash. It has a dimension "a", but it does not tell what this dimension should be. See image below. Notice that the dimension is NOT from the center of the shaft (like anyone would expect it to be). Anyone know what this dimension should be from the center of the shaft?

Also, is there someplace that I can buy a "shim pack" that will fit the factory gear assembly? The SM shows it here as item #3, but does not give a part number for it.
I would like to know your thoughts on why my front tires are cambering? I just swapped my stock 14s and 30" backs rims and tires to a 17" STI on 30" rocktanes for a trip to Tennessee. As soon as I lowered off the jack it was off, so I took it for a test drive and thought it might’ve just sat down funny, but that wasn’t the case. It’s still cambered….hmmm
