$700 99scrambler polaris???????

That's good to hear. I just got my sisters 500 running that had a bad valve in the carb and would spill over gas. It still needs rejetting but I'll have to do that next time I'm out. If you think you have a bad starter relay you can check by turning your key on and short out the relay. If it cranks over but won't when you press the start button you have a bad relay.

yes u need to run polaris synthetic 0W-40 oil or an equivalent like amsoil.... i would recommend the polaris oil, thats all you should use in the engine, the exhaust cam lobe does wear flat on the cams in the polaris 500 engines it is common, and it probablly didnt help running the wrong oil in the atv, call your dealer up and ask them if they are going to adjust the valves when they put in the new cam, they should but might not.

trailblazermudrunner the starting fluid these days is usually lubricated unless its pure ether, its probablly not too hard on the engine to use small ammounts of starting fluid but i wouldnt recommend doing it alot

Yup bad cam... its common on the 500 engine
