That’s great you and your Pops worked together. Create all the good memories you can and take none of the time you spend together for granted. I lost my Pop two years ago and really had no idea how much I was going to miss him. I’d give almost anything to have him back for even a few hours.
love wrenching w my dadn
Sorry to hear about that man…Rip
Love the sound of twin pipes!!!!! Classic!!
So cool you working with your dad. I do the same with mine. We still ride as much as we can. Good times, keep it up!!
Very cool! thanks i love wrenching w him!
Pretty sweet that you kept your first mod sled after all these years 👍 My money is on the reeds, it shouldn't blow back through the the carb like that , I'd say check the case reeds and clean the carbs , if it problem still persists , check the crank seals , you can spray brake kleen at the clutch side seal to check same with starter side if you remove the recoil . Look forward to more in this series👍
love this old rid
Yea man bring the old mods back! I was just talking with old Bruno from the sled shop here in Edmonton just the other day, and he was showing me a couple of custom chassis Polaris wedge mod sleds he was building for a guy from the ground up. So cool to see interest in the old mod sleds coming back.
love the old mods!
Oh man good to see Rocky in a vid tell your old man he looks great .Good to see him tuning sleds again i miss the old shop
Will do
Oh man now you're going to need to get your tough boy bearing kit for the crankshaft, some special high-altitude heads! Don't forget the Boost bottle. LOL that has to be 3 to 5 horsepower with the Boost bottle
After riding the new sleds the old ones getting stuff done is that much more amazing!
I poured it out and 800xp origin to go into a gen 2 Mountain sled. I will tell you what that thing went! That engine have so much bottom end and flat power curve with the low gearing. Such a drivable engine. Granted back then on stock pipes we only had 175 horsepower with a power curve from engagement to wide-open there was no peek. Unlike today's engines where they get that monster has 165 horse
Dude, Love the ol’ retro sleds!🤙🤜
The best!
Man thanks for this video I learned some neat tricks to eliminate problems without taking too much a part 🤟
awesome
First step always clean a carb first on a sled tht is sitting it take 5-10 mins to drop the tank and pull the carbs out and then it’s two screws and 2 drains and two jets each
Those racked carbs are famous for a O ring on the float assembly going bad which causes flooding.
Cool sled!!
i love it
🤘👊 Sick vid!.
thx
Cool sled!
indeed
It's figured out now but I'm sure it was the idle circuits being clogged I'd change the reeds and check the intake boots as they have probably dried out and if they Crack it goes lean runs better than ever right until it pops ripping old school SWEET
Needle and seats in the carb not sealing correctly or stuck, possible even float that isn't controlling in the bowl. Plugged pilot jets/pilot circuit if it won't idle on its own without throttle. Pull carbs, full disassemble, ultrasonic clean everything. Once back together, check crank seals.
on it
The PTO cylinder didn't seem happy but it's hard to tell over video. If you brought it to me I would just go through the carbs but the rack slides very rarely had issues but I would still put the 6 pounds of air pressure to the inlet and make sure that with the carburetors upside down make sure that they could shut off that 6 lb. Maybe a choke plunger is hung up? With a full tank of gas I would pull the pulse line and see if anything drips out of that overnight
on that era of carbs they had a plastic needle and seat assembly. the assembly has an o ring that fits in the fuel inlet of the carb in the bowl. when they sit for a while the o ring goes bad. usual symptom is the sled gets the case flooded. replace the o ring and good to go. polaris PN 3131231 for thew whole plastic assembly. you can look up in the polaris parts browser by the part number and see where its used. but replace that o ring maybe. prob got it figured out by now though.
we got it, i think!
Those carbs were notorious for flooding when the float seal thing went. Happens to my 2000 Rmk 800
checking into it
@@turcotte16 I think those carbs had a TPS system too. But im just working off the way back memory machine. The mods on that thing may have eliminated it
Carbs for sure
definite carb issue
You eliminated that the impulse hose was allowing fuel to go into the crankcase, and I think float sticking as an issue also.
I would still pull carbs, pressure test needle and seats. Check reeds for the petals being warped or the rubber delaminating if they are v force.
Also confirm the chokes aren’t sticking on.
good input!
My Dad still has a 72 skidoo that was bought new and my first snowmobile I ever rode. My brother still has a 99 polaris xc 600 that I broke my arm on ditch banging 2 decades ago
amazing
Seems like ya got it
we’re onto something
Subd just fir the 02 pro x
Cool🤘🤘
yesss
O-rings in carb floats
When you get her up and running, take her for a rip up where you had the 9r out lol
i should
Do some videos with it!!!
gotta get it runnning first
Where you from originally Brett? Here in Quebec? Beh oui Turcotte!
Hes from bc
british columbia
Stuck float or float seal :)
you
might be onto something!
It looks like the same sled you climbed a mountain from Slednecks 13
quite similar
Floats.
could be
It’s the plastic float o-ring, dried out an shrunk, dumping fuel in motor
good idea,
will check!
If only you could rewind time and have old Larry rugland and the Pro 5 team build you a watercraft engine. Or since you're out in the mountains maybe a unionbay
The needle is stuck in one of the carbs bud.. Are those slp pipes bud?
SLP pipes!
Bro, did you ever finish this?
someone know where to find twin pipes for 04 rmk 800?
Wait.
Why bother firing it up now, you don't even have the Turbo on yet? I bet you have one of those adjustable compression squish head gasket kits lying around somewhere.😉
ha
Needle and seats. Not able to shut fuel off when carb bowl is full of fuel.
good idea
The carb vent Lines shouldn’t be tied together.
good eye!
Jets are clogged
nope
110% pilot circuit is clogged on the carbs
maybe…
Yo I was wondering what’s the screen mounted by the console area?? I’m looking for stuff to do to mine thanks man
it’s EGT readings!
Love this new vid keep up the good work 🙌🔥
Thank you! Will do!
