Exhaust Valves 2014 Pro

sledhead_79 · Jan 24, 2016

Got a Carls 660 and a stock 800. Both 2014 PRO RMK's. The 660 last winter was cutting out so we cleaned the power valves and put a new bellows in one of them (cracked), fixed the performance issue. The 660 was cutting out in the deep stuff yesterday, so I figured lets check the EV's again. Inside the bellows were large amounts of oil again like they were last winter. Figured I should clean the ones on the 800 and very little oil inside the bellows.

Why is one sled EV's having more oil than the other inside the bellows?

NOTE this is the first time I have cleaned the 800's and they weren't to bad.

Are you referring to where the shaft (#8) slides through the collar (#9)?

Not just one bellow is loading up on oil, its both.

Is the oil pump turned up on the 660, and not the 800? You seeing a significant difference in oil consumption when they're riding together? I'm guessing the 660 is not pinned all the time, while the 800 is loafing.

I have no idea about the oil pump, purchased used May 2014. 660 doesn't get opened up unless I am on it, wife's sled.
