    How does a sled act when the turbo goes south ?

    Turned out to be cracked (big crack) innercooler. Funny it would not run worth a crap without boost.

    Houston we have a problem!

    Well I welded up the crack cleaned and checked the carbs and changed the oil since I had the inercooler off. Seems to run correct in the shop but the blowoff is not opening (might have helped cause the crack) pressure tested a bunch and fixed lots of small hose leaks. some on the vacume lines...

    Houston we have a problem!

    Well good thing I am not in a hurry to go ride as not as many posting here as use to be. Ran it again in the shop and pushed it harder this time, its still running like it was in the field, just with no load so it seemed better. I did not push it up enough and when I did I got the same...

    How does a sled act when the turbo goes south ?

    Smart a$$ comments aside... I had trouble the other day and think maybe the turbo seized up for a bit. and wondering what people have experienced when their turbo went south. After about 1/2 hour of riding it quit, Then I could get a good initial throttle to about 6000 RPM and it would max out...

    Houston we have a problem!

    Sorry I forgot to put that in... I did disconnect it and wired it direct. I burned up a cheaper one on the last ride and had to do the same. I was able to ride out that time. I did disconnect the TORS and tried reconnecting the other way ( seem to have read that) did nothing to help.

    Houston we have a problem!

    The RX1 let me down for the first time today and I let me down by not fixing it in the field. Only had to walk 1.5 miles back to the truck to get the other sled to pull her back. It will rev to about 6000 and start to move, then at full throddle just barely run and go about 100 feet to 100...

    Slidekicks

    Yea sometimes it just makes you think.... WTF over I run these with about 8 rides on them now. So far I like them. I leave them down while on the trailer as it seemed they were getting stuck in the up position from being hooked on the rails. I run no bogies and jump into the deep soon as I can...

    engine warning code

    The warning system on the RX to me is very annoying. It is real easy to disconnect the wires linking the two grips in the middle of the bar and hook up one side and then the other, If the grip is good the flashing quits and the grip warms, if not it keeps blinking. I just dont like counting and...

    A few RX1 questions

    Yes I never had a problem but it seemed like cheap insurance. I bulit custom drop brackets when I did mine but be careful not to change the geometry of the shocks and movement in the skid if you do. I bent a shock in half on a expensive lesson in skid dynamics and free internet advice. I did...

    A few RX1 questions

    I have done this with great results. It is very tight and I recomend grinding all rivits smooth as possible and there are a few bolts up front that need to be shortened and if I remember right and one to use a different type. I did a search on this site and came up with good info to pull it all...

    boost leak

    Build a deal to run air perssure into the turbo. I did it with a left over silicone hose the size of my turbo intake and a PVC plug the same size with a air chuck in it. It sounded like a den of snakes under the tunnel. (rear mount) makes it real easy to find the leaks.

    Pressure tested my turbo with interesting results

    It sounded like a pit of snakes in the tunnel... With all that hissing no smoke or bubbles needed. :drink: Have a rear mount bender a few years old now, so it looks like it was past time to do some clean up work. Pulled charge tube a welded a few cracks and 2 holes. Not back together yet...

    Pivot riser questions

    I have PowerMadds as well, and the same problem. I eventually drilled a hole the size of a left over rivet (alum.) shaft through the clamp and ends of the riser and cut a piece to fit. Through some extras in my pack. Holds very tight and in the event of going over the bars it will shear the...

    Thinking of adding Electric Power Steering to the RX1T ....

    I have been looking at some after market electric power steering units and thinking of moding one into the old RX1. With the turbo things are tight under the hood but it may just fit. Will have to do some more home work and would really like to hold the unit in my hands so I can get the real...

    Power steering?

    http://atvpowersteering.com/atv-power-s ... em-86.html I think this is more what it would be. I am actualy thinking about moding this onto my RX1. Add 10-15 to make it feel 100 lighter. I just doubt there is room to pull it off and these guys are not good at giving out any info emil wise.

    AEM Wideband just hangs at 14.6 , wont change

    I Have a bender rear mount and can change up the pitot and make the sled run different but my AEM just hangs at 14.6 like it is stuck. sometimes I might get a slight bit of movement but it does not change while moving through the RPM range. The sled runs good plug color is good ( not too lean) ...
