Club friend has a '99 500 that She rode all last weekend. About 180 miles between Friday and Saturday. However on Sunday during a short ride out of Gaylord her sled suddenly stopped. It would not spin over. She got a tow back and just for giggles we poured a bit of oil in the cylinders and pulled it over and it came back to life. A few guy's in the group thought it was overheating but I don't think so. She rode it hard the 2 previous day's and it was fine.
There are no marks in the cylinders. The plugs came out a bit black and dry. I have not had a look at the sled yet (could not go up and play with the guy's Had a great weekend playing with my 6 month old instead).
Now the sled is on her trailer. I might see if I can fit her in this weekend. I wnat to do a complete inspection, compression test. I thought about cleaning up and checking the carbs, oil pump and adjustment of oil pump. Possiby the water pump belt.
Anything I am missing?
