You nailed it oler1234!!!! X2 X2!!!

Had the same jaws pipes on my ptek 860, just couldn’t get them to work at elevation as good as my dynoport does. Now those jaws pipes just collect dust in a box.

A nope on the shock being center if the spindle is tweaked.

Spindle is probably bent, pretty normal on those wet noodle t3 spindles. Check with a straight edge on the backside of the spindle.

Take the clutch apart and investigate , it’s most likely due for a cleaning anyway.

Why don’t you give a call to dean at mad motors or Brent at Arctic edge, they may have a crank and recommend what pistons to use. My experiences I’d stay away from rkt, and wiseco are fine if you warm up properly.

I had that happen too, but I had over 12000kms on the motor. That’s says big bore time...

What was he asking for it? It amazes me what people are asking for a old xp.

Both are really good machines, but I would get rid of the carbide runners and get some hard steal ones to save your front end also some venting for that under hood heat and keep them clutches cool.

It’s more piece of mind when to do it. I got a ptek that when over 12,000kms before it needed a top end and I’ve seen some that didn’t even make 2000. Id do a compression and engine fitness test also check your crank runout first.

2.5 is pretty much max you can stuff in there on stock drivers even at that it will rub some rivets till it breaks in, 3” if you go 7t drivers or drop and roll your chaincase.

Heat is not the problem, it’s brps pour as prep work before paint or powder coating. I’ve seen a lot of tunnels and coolers do that from them.

Had that happen too on my 08, than I big bored it. It bloody rips, wish my new sled had the same power.

When I bent my driver shaft you definitely could feel the vibration worse going down the trail at a constant speed, not as much up on the mountain.

X2 on that. I seem to only get 2 years out of my skidoo covers before it needs repair or tossed out.

I don’t know how it works in Alberta, but in B.C. it would fall under the register of ORV of road vehicle act.

Those two plugs are not needed to run the sled. Is your dess light lite up or any beeps, how far will it rev up to if any?

The water pump is most likely shot.

That’s pretty normal, I always put in a little bit of oil on top of the air side of the piston on all my rebuilds. Just don’t every compress the shock with out any reasonable psi in the air chamber.

Had something similar years ago but with a primary on my old Yamaha. Not even 8 rides on the brand new clutch before it blew apart, also took out my secondary, side panel, hood, and foot well. Lucky I wore steel toes boots at the time. Turned out the primary was badly casted.
