My tool kit upgrade! Best 15 dollars spent!
I did testing and temp readings with guard/without, plus different amounts of shimming on the secondary. I stopped when I found what worked on my sled. Believe me, I tried to believe the guard might work, but not on mine, it was sooo hot! Now is good. Later I installed a few vents in the panel. In my opinion, BRP didn't fix anything--just put a bandaid on a greater problem. So there...
Wait a minute you guys!!!I started a thread on this cooler thingy ma dooey and everyone said dont touch it???*&^%#$$FD

I vented my 2012 Etec with JCCustom vents upper and lower on the left and right panels. I left the CVT totally as stock and put on 2200 kms with one belt.
I read where a lot of guys ran them without vents and had great belt service.
I am trying my 2013 XMX this year without vents and an unmodified CVT until something happens. Then I may put in vents but I won't change the CVT.
What all do you store in that little tool bag IFSM8??? I copy catted your idea lol!!! Would like as well to have a few more tools in the sled, was just curious as to what you carry on your sled (not your person, just what you think you'd put in that little baggie)
Cheers and great find!!!!!!!!!!!!
What were your temp readings??? What style or aggression of riding??? Aren't these new belts supposed to run better warmer??? Just asking, if I like your numbers i might just do the same to mine...
Cheers and nice job!!!!!!!!
Didn't you get my "so there"? I did this last year for myself and didn't keep what I recorded. Sorry, but I never thought anyone else would WANT to hear about it cause of all the propaganda on the new guard(plus, I didn't want to get into a big debate over this. sigh...). I remember it was 25C cooler just by shimming out 2mm without touching the guard. Some machines were fine. Mine was not. After a long pull in deep powder it was scorching hot. First sign, while breaking the machine in was all the belt dust after a ride. Not acceptable to me. Now is very good.
