Need Help with 94 Polaris 400
I have a 94 Polaris Sportsman 400 with 1900 miles. The atv was in excellent condition except the engine let go. It's in the polaris shop now and the cost to repair is $1275.00. My question is would this be too much to spend on an older atv? Should I fix it or scrap it? The dealer doesn't know what to tell me. He said that normally that would be too much but the quad is like new. I may be able to rebuild it myself what do you think? Would this save me some money? Can I buy a rebuilt motor somewhere? This is a 2 stroke. Any advice will be greatly appriciated I am not sure what to do. What would you guys do ? Please help. Thanks

I would say rebuild it yourself. Depending on the extent of the damage it could be pretty cheap to rebuild??? But If it were me. I would park it in the weeds. We have two 2000 Magnum 500s sittin out in the weeds with locked up motors. They werent worth fixing. SO we just parked them with the rest of the junk.

There isn't much on a 2 stroke to rebuild, new seals and gaskets in bottom end, new piston and rings, re-hone or overbore the cylinder depending on the condition, a good cleaning or rebuild of the carb and your set. Why is the motor toast?? Locked up, won't start, no compression???

I may acquire a 94 400 motor that a cust is probably not going to fix. It has a cracked(not broken yet) piston in it and I don't think he is going to repair it. I will send you a PM and give you my number. I could rebuild the top end with a wiseco and maybe ship it to you if it's reasonable for both of us. I will try to find out wednesday what he wants to do.
