Indy Problems!!

[sheenut]

Well The Other Day My Friend Came Over To My Garage To Pick Up His Sled To Do Some Riding. We Got Hammered With Over A Foot Of Snow Anyways He Started It Up After Sitting All Summer Long, Took It For A Ride Everything Was Ok. I Hopped On The Sled Took It For A Ride And It Started To Backfire? Almost Like It Dumped One Cylinder. Long Story Short We Took The Top End Off And Found That The Left Side Piston(if You We're Riding It) Was Burnt Up Real Bad And Also Had Some Small Holes Around The Outside Of The Piston The Middle Was Fine But The Outside Was Trashed And Chunks We're Missing. My Question Is Can You Replace Only One Cylinder If The Othe One Is Fine? And Also Could This Problem Be Caused By The Oil Injection Failing? Please Take Mercy On Me If You Find Any Of These Questions Stupid I Don't Know Much About Sleds!!!1997 Polaris Indy 700 Twin

out of my experience it would be in your best intrest to rebuild both sides, if yo bore one out and leave the other one where it is, i can throw your crank out of balance and compleatly fuck you over. was the sled winterized? the oil injetion isn't going to do a dang this on start-up especially sitting for a summer. there probably was no oil. i always before starting my sks 700 up dump a bit of oil in the cylinder and pull it over a couple times to re-coat the cylinder wall. my bet is there was a shit load of friction there. best bet rebuild it and you'll be set for the next what probably 6-8 years.. if ya maintain it.. i have a 1999 polaris 700 sks. still on stock bore, and holding 150 PSI and it has close to 9,000 miles on it. there's my 2 cents

I would rebuild both sides, You should also clean your carbs every year before you run it. Youd be amazed at some of the shit I've found in my air box and reed cage after sitting all summer. Mice do some weird shit. one side having an obstriction can mess shit up.

just get a pistion an jug for that side , i ran me 650 rxl efi all last year and was haveing lots of truble with in boging and not working good and would only run for a serton lenght of time ,the problem was that me crank berings were shot and i mean some of the berings on the clutch side wouldint even turn thats how bad it was the funn thing about it it would still run and go 100 mph like that
