i bought the sled used off a guy and he had a mechanic freshen up the top end because it sat for almost 2 years. So i took it to my local dealership and had them do up a premium maintenance on the sled because of it sitting for two years.
picked it up went riding with the wifes sister and her family. My wife got about 2 miles from the trailer and the motor seized up so right away i looked at the plugs and they were bone dry??? It looked like to me it got no oil what so ever.
So after the weekend went back to the dealership told them what happened they said bring it in we will take alook at it. So they told me it was cold seized scored all four corners and fawked the cylinder PTO side i think they said.
So my question is if it cold seized would the plugs still not have some oil on them and if you adjust the oil pump you still have to prime it correct?
In all my years of riding i never had a cold seize before. The sled a 2001 800 summit. the other seven sled nothing and we all let them warm up for a good five minutes and the temp was only -C out.
oh i forgot the oil tank has a cracked bottom but i filled it up before we left
so what do you ya think.
sorry for it being so lengthy
