This is becoming to common to have to post problems every couple of rides
2002 700RMK proted, Union Bay Head,VIII Reeds, SLP Twin Pipes. Premix.
Riding 6-9'
So I recently had the PTO crank bearings replaced, one ride and it seems to be fine. Went riding again this last weekend and about 30 minutes into the ride I start to here a weird noise which seems to be coming from the motor. Hard to explain what it sounded like but sort of a wheezing...or like when you are going down hill and not given it throttle. I can hear it as I'm milking the throttle which seems to be worse with more and less when not given it throttle then it just died. That kind of die when you say yeah I just burned her down.
It started back up but instead of riding it we just towed it out hoping to not cause more damage.
I took it apart last night and found the mag piston not in that great of shape and I'm thinking that’s it, but I took the pistons and the jugs into the dealer and they said NOPE! Piston isn't in great shape but not enough to be the problem. The crank seems to be fine, total free motion can't feel any drag at all.
So now I'm at a loss of what’s going on, does anyone have any idea at all of what else it could be? Sorry for such a long post
I really don't know what else to look for so any suggestions on where I should look for the problem is greatly appreciated!
