I purchased a used 2013 ProClimb M-8 153 with aprox. 3k miles on it.
The sled came from Idaho so I had no history on the sled.It ran great and had no visible leaks, overall it was in great shape.I proceeded to brig the sled to a cat only dealer in Olgivie MN. I had them go through the whole machine. Now the problems start. When it came back it had a slow leak that appeared to be coming from the oil tank seal,( we think) I took it for a short ride on Tuesday afternoon It lasted about 1/3 mile when the motor died and wouldn't restart. Upon removal of the pipe both pistons were scorn .Is it possible that there was a air bubble in my oil line that occurred when they pulled the oil tank off to check my chain case ? We know it wasn't a cold seize. We also hear that there my be a issue with the oil neck not venting properly that may cause problems. Any body know of anybody that has had a similar problem.
