the 425 "engine" crankcase. Was the crankshaft assembly and connecting rod all 425 as well? so you just changed the piston and just. The cams are the same but the valves are different numbers between the 425 and 500. Would've been nice to confirm if the valves were the same size with dial calipers.

You are so knowledgeable about the 2000 Sportsman 500. I wonder if you could give me some guidance and direction on a problem I have. I dropped a paper cap from a fuel stabilizer into the gas tank by accident. I can't think of any way to get it out. How hard is it to get the gas tank off. Or maybe you have another way to get it out. I feel like I need a trick here. I really don’t want to take the tank off. I have taken the seat off and the side shields. I was hoping that I wouldn't have to remove all of the plastic shields.

@@gshew6769 no, I went down the rabbit hole last night. The cylinder height is apparently the same. It's only the rod length that changes. So it should actually increase the compression directly between what the Magnum 425 and the 500 have stock. The magnum is 9.2x1 while the 500ho is 10.2x1. so the 465 with the same chamber and deck height should be approximately 9.7x1. I could not find the chamber size or the head gasket thickness.

If you do it that way put a light coat of gasket maker down. Just a thin coat. It says not to but there is a chance if you scratch the surface the mechanical water pump seat will leak.

No power to the primary or secondary of starter solenoid? If there isn't power at the solenoid, the motor won't crank (turn). If it's no spark, ( not starting) when hot, it could also be the coil or spark plug....

@TitaniummanGarage
@TitaniummanGarage 4 жыл бұрын
The right side chain guide is positioned under the head so you have to remove the head to get it out. The left or topside could possibly come out without removing the head with the chain out of the way. There should be a socket on ebay for that goofy nut. Or you could make one. Some guys make them out of pipe and notch the end out.

Subbed . Man you have confirmed my tgeory same part different number thing! Ive seen that with a lot of polaris stuff out there particularly sprocket and axle bearing carriers and what not. I have a 2000 polaris 500 sportsman 6x6. Chain snapped busted rh of the gear case. My thougts are i had an alignment issue on tge new sprocket and the output shaft bearing. Got a lot of slop in that output shaft now. I cant find my gear case rh anywhere! Do you have a source for that part? Id like to rebuild the trans while i got this down. Also the sprocket was replaced with a superceded part on that middle axle . The old one was seized to the axle and i couldnt get it off. I bought this used from a guy had bad bearings back there and he just rode it that way for god knows how long. Well when it came tim to fix this , i ran into siezed sprocket on thw axle and rhe biggest of pullers only warped the old sprockt didnt budge it . So i had to cut the axle bearing carrier in half straight through the axle. The acle was badly damaged anyway so i was gonna have to replace it. But i could not get it out. The locking hubs were siezed up on one side as well . It was a real pain to get that back together. Well when i did i realized the sprocket would not line up proper. I need a spacer any idea where i can find one of those?
