tipped my sled on its right side yesterday and the oil light came on and couldn't start the sled. Got it started after a couple try's no problems but it used to come on ever not and then after I'd shut it off.
I heard a different sound in the sled and am assuming it's the oil pump??????
I recall reading here something about repriming the oil pump but was unsure what to do. Never had this issue with my nytro so once it started I giver!!
Any thoughts on this problem/issue and a remedy.
Also....
Wondering about a roll over kit. Are there any options or better/worse kits available?
Would also prefer to buy from a TY vender.
All the best!!
Btw there's so much negativity on here about these sled that I need to post another thread soon about how much I love this sled!!!!
Yeeee haaawwww!!!

If you rolled it on the right, roll it over on the left side and let it sit for a few before you start it. It will then fire right up without the light coming back on and shutting off. Just did it twice this week. Otherwise, you have to pull the breather tube and stick your finger in to block it and let it prime. That's no fun or necessary. Or you can also do the method you did and just keep starting it until it primes. That can take a while to get the prime back if it was over for a while and a little harder on the starter by the repetitive cranking and starting which I'm not fond of. I've done that method also. Rolling it on the other side works well and very quickly with the downfall being pushing the pig over on the other side to around 45 degrees.
I can't comment on the roll over kits since I'm going to start looking around myself. It's almost a necessity if you like having fun screwing around in the deep snow and end up on your side at times and don't feel like messing with the prime issue.

They are the best! Others copy their design. They also support TY and are an advertiser!

4 stroke solutions and they use cat tether which fits the sled much better.

This page explaines how the Four Stroke Solutions roll over valve operates and all of it's functions. I've not seen another site or manufacturer provide anything like this because nobody else has these capabilities! His installation instructions and the on line pictures of each operation/step are great.

Just right the sled remove the top hose going into the oil tank an restart with your thumb over the end of the hose. It will re-prime. The newer models have a baffle in the tank to prevent the oil from rolling away from the pick up at the bottom of the tank.
