Hi:

Just acquired a 2003 predator 90 and bought some Polaris injection oil (VES) and gear oil (AGL) from the dealer to the tune of $15 per quart for each type. Anyone know of more reasonably priced alternatives??

Thanks,

Rick

Sorry for the delayed reply. I couldn't log on to this site for a month. Didn't buy it, my daughter and her husband gave us the predator 90 and a 2001 Bombardier DS650. The DS650 is REEEaly fast.

Sorry for the late reply I kept trying to log on for about a month and couldn't get through. Thanks for the Oils info. I guess I'll just "bite the bullet" when the time comes to replenish the fluids. My daughter and her husband had a problem with this quad for awhile before they gave it to me....wouldn,t start with the starter button. I finally figured out that the brake switch was bad. Replaced it and the quad starts fine with the starter button.

I had the E-ton 90 which runs the same motor as Polairs my daughters was a two stroke. If yours is a 2 stroke & thats what it sounds like based on your post injection oil. The oil your talking about it will last a very long time. I ran Yamalube in my daughters it had the oil tank under the seat for the 2 stroke oil. I don't remember but think I paid 19.00 for the oil from the shop I bought the quad at but it was more than a qt. I think. My daughter out grew the quad before I went thru the bottle of Yamalube. She rode it for over a year and I only added oil 1 time to the tank.

My daughter was 11 when we got her the e-ton 90. I wanted to get her a bigger quad because she is tall but when we were shopping the dealer said by law and her age a 90cc was the biggest quad they could sale us. At 7 & 6 it should last them for a long time. My daughter is 13 now and she has been riding my Kawasaki 650 prairie for little over 2 years. I turned the screw in so she only had about a 1/4 of throttle.

      I own a 2007 Polaris Sportsman EFI X2 model and have for the past months been experiencing loads of issues. Basically the Sportsman will only start if the throttle lever is pushed and will not remain on idle. This situation has persisted for months now and I have replaced the following parts:

      Sparking Plug
      Fuel Injector
      Fuel Pump
      Fuel Filter
      Fuel Valve
      Fuel lines
      Power Control Module

      The last part replaced was the Power Control Module and the Sportsman was tested and worked fine on a couple of occasions which were days apart so much so that some weeks later I took the Sportsman for an extensive ride and it worked perfectly. This was three weeks ago and today I tried to start the ATV it worked fine a few minutes and decided to switch it off so that I could continue with some prep work. A few minutes later tried to start it up again but noticed that it would only start if the throttle lever was pushed and once I removed my finger from the throttle lever the engine would not stay in idle and would simply shut down. Several attempts were made to start this and also tried to re-adjust the setting by turning the built in wheel like mechanism in the throttle cable but it was to no avail.

      The above have been repeating itself on an off basis. Each time a part is replaced the ATV would work and then all of a sudden will not keep its idle. At this stage I cannot think of any other solution other than possibly some sensors which might have an intermitting fault but I cannot really say.

      Would greatly appreciate any assistance.

      Thanks in advance.

      I've been using Valvolene 10w 40 ATV oil but, it's like $8.00 a quart. Is that about the going rate? Or is there cheaper alternatives that would be suitable? Thanks

      I believe the Kawasaki is either an '03 or '04. Green automatic with shifter on the right side. Rear differential was bad, so I replaced it with another. The 4 wheeler rolled in neutral when I parked it in the shop to work on. Took old diff off and replaced it with another one. The diff I put on, turned before I put it on the bike. Once I put it on the bike, the rear end wouldn't move at all. It's like it's stuck in gear. Bike is still in neutral. I've tried rocking the bike while trying to put it in high, won't budge. Can anyone tell me of something to check or try? I haven't opened up the transmission case yet to see what's going on. What should I be looking for?
