I’m pretty sure you can get to it from a hole in the underside skid plate

I had a 2004 sportsman 500 that my dad beat hunting and trapping. Thing had 2 axles relaced, bushings and bearings twice and sadley only 2 services in 12000 km other than the break in 25 hr service snd the thing would not die. Maybe it was a fluke because another person from the area had the identical bike and just used it for trail riding and it fell apart.

I have a 2020 model. My manual says 3 pumps maximum, every 500 miles. I found my machine a bit on the dry side from the factory, so I put 5 pumps in mine at 75 miles. I'll hit it with 3 more pumps after 500 miles (as stated in the manual).

Yes Polaris wants you to take your vehicle in and spend $1000 to replace that part that’s why they said three or four pumps. Mine was Dry as a desert !

Its a simple job. You don't have to remove the foot rest. Turn the shaft so it points directly at you on right side. Or 3 o'clock position. Your gun will slip right on. Do not pump 40 pumps FCS!

Lots of things affect fuel mileage. Driving habits is the biggest one. Also weather, altitude, tires, traffic ECT.... Also you said the dealer put different wheels and tires on it. Is the overall diameter different from the stock tires? If so, they the speedometer could be a little off. That can affect your mileage. Driving into the wind. Stop and go traffic. Tire pressure. So many things affect fuel mileage.

Well all those things that you mentioned are correct but can't effect the MPG by half, mine is doing 20 MPG with AC on all time. Really something wrong with this truck
@robertdean62223 жыл бұрын
You were right Curtis, those larger tires I put on make the speedometer and odometer off by 10% so if I’m getting 12 miles a gallon I’m really getting 13.2 MPG‘s

Gas mileage sucks how can the epa. Estamate 16 and 20 ??? Colussy Chevrolet said there’s nothing wrong with the truck unless there is a check engine light on!
