      Usually its the bendix gear by the starter that makes noise. Or the clutch rattling.

      On mine it was the clutch making that noise. I replaced the clutch and the noise was gone.

    Just bought a used ATP 500 sportsman and heard you say about gas in the oil! Mine had gas in the oil also! What causes that? Thanks for the videos

      Usually it's a leaking carb. Bad needle and seat. Leaks fuel into cylinder and down into the oil.

    Hey, what’s the plug on the right side of the engine floor? It looks like it’s the clutch cover.

    Have you ever used engine rebuild kits from a company called REV 6...they have a kit for $1400...for Polaris 500 engines...

    • @TitaniummanGarage

      Good company with quality parts. I have only used some of the parts they have from other vendors like their crankshafts.

    Aren't you supposed to prime the oil pump if you drain the crankcase by using a pliers or hemostat on the hose of the top part of the oil tank? that has a slit in it.

    • @TitaniummanGarage
      @TitaniummanGarage  Год назад +2

      I've heard of guys doing that. I would do that on a fresh rebuild. There is oil all over the inside of the engine when you do an oil change. So a quick start up like I showed won't hurt anything. It takes 3 seconds for the oil to circulate in the engine unless you have a weak pump. I've never had an issue.

      I think you only need to do that if you pull the screen in the reserve tank, sometimes I pull it sometimes not
