I am currently getting no fuel and no spark. I have replaced the battery, fuel pump and PDM. The bike cranks over just fine and the display lights up. I have checked the wiring and can’t find any shorts. I am getting 4.99 volts at the plug for the fuel pump, however when I plug it in voltage drops to zero. I’m honestly at a loss here! Any input or ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Spare tire
Does any one pack along spare tire when they tide? Honda wrote in their handbook, you can ride farther than you can walk in a day. I wouldn’t have wanted to walk home from where I was today, not even back to he highway.
Does any company make a narrow tire to be used as a spare? Kind of like what GM calls a portable spare?
Thanks for your consideration.
Great day for a ride
I took my new Foreman, a new 2013, out in the local desert. Its about a 4 mile drive to an entry point to what we call State Trust Land. There are 1000s of acre of BLM and Trust land. All that is asked is $15 a year permit and to stay on established trails. Np with any of that!
It is a beautiful cloudless 80 F day and no wind. Sonoran Desert is very beautiful even if a little dry. The new Foreman ran like a top and I got a small taste of uneven ground via badly rutted roads. I am a novice so its all good. Ill put pictures as soon as I get them out of the camera.
I hope your recent ride was a nice as this one. I think Ill get a flag as the camo works!
Alternative fluids
Does anyone know of a chart or thread that gives "accurate" alternatves to Can Am fluids. I’m also interested in filters but that’s easier. I am most interested in appropriate alternatives to Can Am xp-s chaincase oil.

Chain keeps loosening/tightening
I’m riding a 05 trx450r, about 3weeks ago my chain popped off, so I came home, and the next week before going out I adjusted it properly. Half way through the day, I noticed it got too tight so I adjusted it again, after the day ended, it was loose. Any idea what’s going on?

What bolt pattern is 4/4???
So I’m shopping around for some beadlocks rims for my quad and I can find 4/156 pattern for the front but I can not find 4/4 for the rear!!! What pattern is equivalent to 4/4? Im finding 4/110, are they the same? Also what are some sites that sell nice beadlocks rims? I’m looking for just a black rims with a blue or yellow ring. Can’t decide between blue or yellow rings!!!

Oil type, suffix meaning. Mix?
I was just checking if I have oil for my ATV (Foreman 400), and I find that I am confused by the various suffix’s on the 10W-40 Honda and other four stoke oil containers that I have. I find that I have the following suffix’s:
SJ
SG/SF/SJ
SF/SG
AP/SG/CC
SJ
SG/SF/SJ
SF/SG
AP/SG/CC
I have Honda 10W-40, Four Stoke, SJ in the machine currently. I have a lot of oil, but I’m not sure I should mix even if they are all one brand with different suffix’s.
Can I mix any of these oils without doing any harm?
