Trailblazer 400 counterbalance
In October I had a new counterbalance put in my 400. I rode less than 75 miles before I winterized and put it away. I checked the cb oil when I winterized it and the oil looked ok. I got it out last weekend and rode around the yard a little and then pulled it into the garage to check things over. The cb oil was milky. Could this have been caused by condensation from sitting all winter? Has anyone had trouble getting water in the cb oil through the oil injector pump? I noticed that the gasket on the pump cover was only sealing about 75% of the surface. If it was antifreeze shouldn't I be able to smell a hint of antifreeze in the oil? Sorry so many questions. Thanks for the help in advance.

Drain it then run it a little then drain it again until it is clear again.Make sure you fix the gasket that is leaking ,then keep an eye on it and see if it get's milky again.If it does then your seal is gone.I really don't think condensation would cause this.I may be wrong though.I hope for your sake that it is though.

Here is the update:
Its going to Polaris in the morning. I cant budge the bolt. They said $20 and they will knock it off. I have to pick up the rest of the parts tomorrow anyway so i have to go back and pick it up.
Then tomorrow night i can get it back together depending on parts.

I had to make my own socket. And used a gun to get it off. (damaged the socket but got it off) Now need to remanufacture the socket to make it stronger. Also where did you get your seals? Dealership? In stock? Also how are you getting the counterballance out? Is the Dealer going to pull that for you also? Or did you make a special puller for that / or buy it from the dealer?

Scrambleme,
I didnt know I needed a puller. Some people on here said you dont. I dont use the oil injector so does that make a difference? Also does the bearing need to be pressed off? Some are saying yes and some no. I should have taken it to the dealer and had them do it. Then I wouldnt be worried about all this special tools and stuff.
let me know if you think it will come out. Im going to replace the bearing too.
