I got a soft spot for these 2stroke sleds that are simple as these to work on 😁 I'm currently running a 92 Jag deluxe 440LT and it takes me home every time on my 150 mi logging trips! I love the old Polaris, SKI doo and now Cat 2stroke sleds! Great vid!
Louie just wanted to say you doing absolutely excellent job explaining and teaching while doing what you love! Having your own TV show is excellent and you're damn good at it LOL but if you ever want a change of pace I think you would make an excellent teacher at a trade school! Down here in the states it's pretty much learning as you go but I'm sure up in Canada there's a trade school and or small engine repair that you would be great at...keep the videos coming!
The clutch parts are very important, the rollers and cam bolts need to be good. Red loctite on the nuts for the cam bolts, so that you can tighten it by hand, then take it 1/8 turn back out, and rely on the red loctite to keep the nut on, so the bolt can twist. The springs also weaken over time, so over time you either have to replace the springs or shave the weight on the cams. Shave the sides of the cams, so you don't change the angle on the cams. And to shave them you first need a gram weight (for food or whatever). Aaen's clutching book is a good read.
I was thiniking the same thing about how the shop does it with an impact. Also I always hand tighten cv axle nuts on my vechicles so that I don't hammer the bearings but I bet the shop puts the nut on with an impact and it runs just as long as the hand tightened.
Got a '99 Jag 440 fan from a young guy. Did pretty much the same as you. The kid never pulled the fan top sheet metal to check for Moose nests. (Always packed in around left jug) probably why compression left side a little low. It blew up on left later.
you dont have a wrist pin draw Louie? your method works as well, but once i saw someone use a wrist pin draw tool, i had to have it. especially being you tear down so many motors. always love your vintage sled videos btw, old sleds never die, they just get re bought & rebuilt!
I have a 2000 Polaris 500 and it has spark in both cylinders and we cleaned the power valves but it keeps popping at idle but when you rev it goes away if any body knows what it could be reply
i had a noisy center crank bearing good thing i don't have much into my 92 indy 440 so i went on and replaced crank seals and all new gaskets still running currently 2nd season since.
Impact guns no worse than the stress the puller adds to the crank youll be just fine running the impact on the crank sometimes its less stress on the bolt as well
i got a 03 polaris xcsp 800 and it struggles at full throttle but has a sweet spot but it doesnt get into the rpms as it should. does this out of the hole too and goes slow and that sweet spot dissapears. any help??
I have a 97 xc 600 triple , It bogs out at 4500 with the air cleaner box and filter , if I take the new filter out of the air box it doesn’t bog but isn’t as snappy as no airbox altogether . If I take airbox completely off it runs mint and is very responsive. Any idea what could cause that ?
fred greenwood sounds like it's a fuel issue. Taking the air filter & box completely off is allowing more air than fuel to run so I'm guessing the carb is jetted a tad too rich for the air filter to restrict airflow it needs to run properly? I'm no genius but it's a thought.
If your looking for another abused sled soon.. Ill be selling my ZR440 2001 in spring lol!!! new rebuild , BUT Plan to blow her up pretty quick Would be a GREAT Body to drop a 800 in , Or just to chop up for parts lol! Sell her to you DIRT CHEAP when i am done with her lol I was thinking of installing a diesel into her.
Rookie question here: which end of the crank is referred to as the pto end? Is it the end that drives the clutch? I own a '94 Polaris xlt 600 witch apparently has a weak crank bearing at the pto end.... thank you
YOU SHOULDN'T USE AN IMPACT ON THE CRANK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Haha jk, I've actually used an impact on a clutch puller on a real stuck clutch.
Hope you just spent the $50.00 and got just PTO and Mag Side bearings Center ones almost never go lol! As long as the rod bearings where good and inside bearings are fine. , just change the out side ones , that normally all i do. crank just looked too good , in video to be talking about getting a replacement or sending her out for a rebuild. lol. ALSO After seeing that piston ring glowing red , dont think i would ever keep them single rings crap for backups lol!
Naw i did them all...if the outsides are done at 10000 kms its a pretty good assumption that the inners will start to go as well. in any event they were all changed....all bad.
@@PowerModzOfficial yeah that’s the problem parts are so hard to find for these older sleds but thanks anyways. Manitoba might have some part sleds around
Come on 8 v he bought this piece of shit sled that was beat more than a red headed step child.. I literally found 12 different good sleds on craigslist that are better than that juvenile delinquent road sled, for less than 500 bucks.. I actually have a few in my garage.. That sled is a pile of shit not worth dumping 500 bucks into a crank and top end..
Nothing wrong with them I ride them all the time.. Paid 375 for one z 440. 600 for a zrt, and 500 for another z 440. All run perfect only normal wear and tear items repaired..
you dont have the 12 you found on Craigslist do you.. no, you dont. so how can you call them better? no, you can't. this sled in the video needs a few minor things, like most sleds of that mileage/age/usage. dunno what youre trying to do.. but it aint right
It literally hurt to watch this video snowmobile bogs are snowmobile engine apart reassemble It was like troubleshooting was not a part of any part of this video
Why don't you put a 488 trail Indy motor in it.. Or buy a another sled.. That thing is a pile of shit and not worth sticking 400 bucks into that 340 IMO..

this is a great series been waiting a little bit
super helpful vid,,, ! im new to sledding and just bought a indy 440 super sport ,, 1million thanks
Love these maintenance videos
Good DIY video. Thanks for sharing.
Like the video just got my first snowmobile so I have to replace the crank and I'll probably new other thing as well
Loving the videos !!

would be a good sled to do a 488 fanner swap, be superlight and have a few extra ponies on top of it

Rebuilt crank from CV Tech in Quebec is probably $400-500, and 1 year warranty I believe.

good advice
I just got a 93 Polaris Indy 440 but we have no snow in Ontario as you know
It's a spirol ring. They are great.
hey igot the same sled any sugestions on how many feet of pull cord to buy for it as i need to replace the cord it snapped
Deadpool meets snowmobile tech. Love it!
i had a noisy center crank bearing good thing i don't have much into my 92 indy 440 so i went on and replaced crank seals and all new gaskets still running currently 2nd season since.
Don't know where to post & ask but have you ever taken an air pump apart on a 99 ski doo G.T. 700 triple ?
could you put them rmk running boards next to the indys? im thinking about getting a set for mine
Were gonna fix this bog.......just rebuild everything lol crank seals can be checked easy enough 🤣.nah just replace everything .
your screw driver hit me in the eye !
I was wondering how many miles are on that engine ?
Called it!
Impact guns no worse than the stress the puller adds to the crank youll be just fine running the impact on the crank sometimes its less stress on the bolt as well
Your kid was wondering where his favorite pajamas went. 16:12 using them as rags!
LOL !!!
Nice sleds
rubber motor mounts to help vibration lmao supposed to move a bit
Nice
can you buy whole motors and just swap them out. good videos
I know how you feel Louis over in nb it the same right
wrist pin Keeper is called spiro loc
I had 500 liquid that had problems getting to 5k rpm... Secondary was assembled wrong... Works real food once I realized what was happening.
i got a 03 polaris xcsp 800 and it struggles at full throttle but has a sweet spot but it doesnt get into the rpms as it should. does this out of the hole too and goes slow and that sweet spot dissapears. any help??
Sync the carbs and seriously go through the clutches. Very easy. Your oeiblem will be solved
I have a 97 xc 600 triple ,
It bogs out at 4500 with the air cleaner box and filter , if I take the new filter out of the air box it doesn’t bog but isn’t as snappy as no airbox altogether . If I take airbox completely off it runs mint and is very responsive.
Any idea what could cause that ?
fred greenwood sounds like it's a fuel issue. Taking the air filter & box completely off is allowing more air than fuel to run so I'm guessing the carb is jetted a tad too rich for the air filter to restrict airflow it needs to run properly? I'm no genius but it's a thought.
No snow left in Wisconsin :( we are getting some snow but there is no base left. So season is pretty much over!! Very short!
Larry W it's the same in the southern half of Minnesota
If your looking for another abused sled soon..
Ill be selling my ZR440 2001 in spring lol!!! new rebuild , BUT Plan to blow her up pretty quick
Would be a GREAT Body to drop a 800 in , Or just to chop up for parts lol!
Sell her to you DIRT CHEAP when i am done with her lol
I was thinking of installing a diesel into her.
FINALLY
Hey....The Skis changed from orange plastic to stock steels with ski skis! Sup with that!?
The carbides were too aggressive!
I have the same sled but dont now much about it im 14 and going to fix it up to drive it next winter, do you have to mix fuel or not?
Do not mix. It's oil injection
have you ever ridden in wawa Ontario
Rookie question here: which end of the crank is referred to as the pto end? Is it the end that drives the clutch? I own a '94 Polaris xlt 600 witch apparently has a weak crank bearing at the pto end.... thank you
The PTO (Power Take Off) is the clutch side.
PTO a tractor term short for Power Take Off- Yes Clutch End
That was so funny
I have a sled life me that!!! Mine is a 1995 340 lite duluxe but mine is green
Hey do you have a video of you removing the carbs from the indy lite? thanks
Pretty sure I did it in one of the videos
Will you finish this series or just do half of it like all the other series? #sorrynotsorry
fack been awaiting soo long for this
I understand that but why start 5 series and only compete them halfway.
Jen McKenzie *you're
Jen McKenzie *minute
Jen McKenzie *every
You look like Ted Danson!
YOU SHOULDN'T USE AN IMPACT ON THE CRANK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Haha jk, I've actually used an impact on a clutch puller on a real stuck clutch.
Not supposed to beat it with a hammer either....
Hope you just spent the $50.00 and got just PTO and Mag Side bearings

Allo
Was it the primary clutch ?
I'm thinking either the primary or secondary.
where do you find your parts for these im rebuilding a 95 xcr 600 and i cant find parts
You have to dig deep in the net
@@PowerModzOfficial yeah that’s the problem parts are so hard to find for these older sleds but thanks anyways. Manitoba might have some part sleds around
what dose "pto" stand for?
christiankristiansen power take off
For 400 dollars you can buy another complete running sled. At least around here lol..
Yeah with more issues.. so are you really ahead? no.
Come on 8 v he bought this piece of shit sled that was beat more than a red headed step child.. I literally found 12 different good sleds on craigslist that are better than that juvenile delinquent road sled, for less than 500 bucks.. I actually have a few in my garage.. That sled is a pile of shit not worth dumping 500 bucks into a crank and top end..
but you dont have them in your shop.. so you don't know whats really wrong with them. they could all need a crabk too..
Nothing wrong with them I ride them all the time.. Paid 375 for one z 440. 600 for a zrt, and 500 for another z 440. All run perfect only normal wear and tear items repaired..
you dont have the 12 you found on Craigslist do you.. no, you dont.
so how can you call them better? no, you can't.
this sled in the video needs a few minor things, like most sleds of that mileage/age/usage. dunno what youre trying to do.. but it aint right
Youuu dont need allll the motor mounts...
go to Larry from McNish snowmobiles and he definetly has them he's a good friend up by bobcaygeon
That was my buddies sled
The one who butchered it up? LOLOL not really good to proclaim EH!? LOL
Just put a 488 fan in instead
12:05
12:05
12:05
Send it to Willy.
Heuuuu first
put a 440 in it
haha... YOU SHOULD'NT NOT HIT IT WITH THE THING!!!!!!!!!
I like your in shop repair videos ,I
would rather watch those than the riding vids

I want you to Ben Dover
440 or 540
340
1000 degree piston vs gas
13:45 OMG dont use heat on the piston😂
The engine puts heat on the piston continually.. combustion engines.
Go look at my channel. That sled is in its own video
worn out leaky reeds can also cause the same issue.
What type of octane gas do you use with an Indy lite 349?
Taking apart an engine with perfect compression😂 why???
so you could make this comment.
@@PowerModzOfficial hilarious
It literally hurt to watch this video snowmobile bogs are snowmobile engine apart reassemble
It was like troubleshooting was not a part of any part of this video
Why don't you put a 488 trail Indy motor in it.. Or buy a another sled.. That thing is a pile of shit and not worth sticking 400 bucks into that 340 IMO..
