I’m getting Shawn from mcbride small engine to do the work.
At the mileage it’s at he wants to check the crank, bearings etc and he said he uses spi pistons.
Quoted me 1600 for the basic rebuild providing nothing else is garbage on it (checking crank trueness and pistons)
From what I hear he’s a good engine builder, seems to dislike fix kits though? Lol

Compression check done 5 pulls wide open throttle? If not done this way you will get lower readings. Usually sleds don’t run this low on compression let alone transition into reverse.

Got her back together. Sled pulls good
Mechanic advises I get a new throttle block as my flapper is loose in basically all directions, he said at one point it’s going to mess with my tss and my sled will go into limp mode/not start
What’s recommended for blocks/flapper assembly? Aftermarket or oem?
I contemplated the finger throttle but I’m fearful of the throttle sticking with no tss

Yea, I always ride with a tether. I loop it to itself and keep it on my right/left wrist
Ive read some guys say even with just a tether if she sticks wide open while riding it’s hard to pull the tether

I have seen a polaris stick wide open, how it never was totalled was just plain luck. Glad to hear your sled is back running i bet that was not a cheap fix.

Yep, bottom end was toast too.
Im glad it didn’t happen where the sled had to be choppered outta anywhere though!
