Having a hard time uploading a picture. perhaps the picture is too big. Can i email it to you?

Ok, well with the puller in place and a quick brap on the impact gun, the Magneto came off. Sooo second question? As i'm cleaning and inspecting the stator, there is one broken wire on the stator pick up. It seems like something has cut/burnt through it. Is this a big deal? Am i looking at...

Thanks Maxwell. I probably should have done a search on this topic, my bad. I do have the princess auto puller, and i have put a little heat to the mag via a heatgun. Should i use the propane torch instead? I will let it sit for a bit now, as i have had no luck yet. Will keep you updated

Looking at trying to get my magneto off, but dont have the right puller. Any chance that another puller would work? or does someone have a proper puller i could borrow?

Suppose to be heading up that way for work in a couple weeks, What's the cellphone service like up there? I could be in Yellowknife for a bit, but heading out towards Bechoko/Rae after that.

When was the last time the fluid and filter were changed?

Instead of selling them, trade them to people for beer! I'll take one!

Got a 2003 Summit 800, all you need is a running engine.

You can shoot off about working for the government all you want, and i can sit here and tell you how busy and exhausted i have been.. but as i write this rather than packing up my stuff to head back down to suffield for 0200, i guess i can think about my "work, life balance"

First off, the main reason i posted this up.. was and i say again.. to remind everyone "BUYER BEWARE"! Even buying off of snow and mud dealer, i thought i was safe. Buying an 8 year old sled, i knew the thing wasn't going to be mint, and i have put approx $500-1000 just fixing the little bits...

Pretty much.. flabbajabba. I'm curious why you highlighted what i said before.. Did you really expect me to completely rip this "new factory shortblock" apart the minute i got it home and check all specs and tolarences? Or should i have taken Teth-air's word and agreed that it was a new factory...

Been out on exercise for the last month and a half. Like i stated before, i believe the fact that the carb boot was spilt that caused the motor to lean out and blow out a piston. Yes the case is cracked on the bottom end, but was not repaired like some suggested by the looks of the pictures...

I've also got a Black hood in my garage, its not in the best shape... but make me an offer.

2003 Summit 800HO I put 250 kms on the engine before she went bang! Who would have thought 100dollar carb boot with a small tear would end up costing $2600?

ya, thats what i read on some forums of guys doing... Might have some carbide drill bits kicking around here somewhere though. Thanks guys!

Hey guys, just curious if anyone has ever seen one of these? I found one on SLP for $65 Yamaha - Dial Indicator Timing Set - Starting Line Products Just curious if anyone could suggest where to look except the dealer?

Nah, been wrenching all day at work. Supper then sleep.

As my roommate has already posted up his comments on here, i will respond to this as, I've been living with the guy off and on for the last 3 years. Dave is the guy that started suggesting last year to get a sled. He has walked me through everything i know about sledding, including fixing and...

I'm going to assume the cracked carb boot that was on that side was the cause of the lean out... thus exploding that cylinder.
