i know. i am on my 2nd one as i destroyed my 1st one trying to save an axle on a vk540 III that all the spacers where seized on.

scotch brite the clutch faces and i would leave it alone. not seeing anything that worries me in the pics but not a top shelf expert.

did you try higher rated springs? i replaced the rear torsions on my 11 a few years ago when they sacked out from milage/age.

take a few pictures with your phone so it is easier to reassemble as i can do it in my sleep by now. the way i do it, 1-back off rear axle nut to top of threads 2-smack on end of shaft on nut with a rubber hammer or a peice of wood and a regular hammer so that shaft moves 3-back off track...

did the nitros come from the factory with the reservoir fox floats? i don't remeber. i do know they came with standard fox floats.

if the rear wheel looks similar to this odds are the bearings are not replaceable.

it has up graded skis and those ski shocks are not stock, so odds are the front a arm bushings have probably been done with oilite at some point. i pick on the speedo bearing as it sucks to have to walk home when it fails.

use compressed air and blow into all the nooks and crannies on the clutch. don't stand too near as all the old belt dust will come out and your face will be black with it. i know better and still end up with a mouth full of dust at least once a year.

ouch! that is why i repack that bearing every year when i do the speedo bearing. all balls made a kit that has the bearings and seals for that shaft including in the chaincase. they also make a kit for the drive axle if you want while you are in there.

welcome! at that km motor is just broken in right. looks like the po was a long distance guy by the klopin/rotopax mount on the tunnel. these usually take about 7.5 gallon from bone dry witch was less than the apex/vectors of the time. in good conditions it should get around 100 mi if you are...

have the clutches ever been cleaned? they do plug up with belt dust over time.

x2 on removing any rubber on the clutch faces with scotchbrite or sos pad.

you are waiting until fuel pump shuts off before starting?

i would try setting the suspension up 1st. make sure you still have carbides on the skis. most guys set them up with the longer carbide on the outside of the ski. my set up for that sled (brother had 2013 rs venture gt) is, set rear torsion springs on full soft for 1 up riding. turn up as...

try swapping the relays. then try with kill switch un plugged. after this, i would be testing the pick up coil and checking the wiring harness for rub throughs.

just take compressed air at 120 psi and blow out all the nooks and crannies for now. plan on a tear apart in the off season.

get it thawed out. sounding like it could be ice. if it runs on all 4 when warm, odds are needs carbs cleaned.

the light will be on with the oil dipstick out of the tank or if it is unplugged. i don't have the most experiance with these for what else might be throwing oil out other than what i already have posted.

unplug the ignition and see if you have spark. this is based on the vk540 through to vk540III that i have delt with. fuses all good?
