they did do something different but it doesn't work one of the guys from town bought a 2011 did the same thing

 

I learned that when I fouled my first set of plugs. I always let my machine warm up for a long time before even looking at the throttle. This popped instantly when I started it though. Is there any fix to this solution once I go through all this?

 

None that I know of other than keeping the atv in a heated shed or cracking the dip stick tubea little to release pressure till its warmed up good I hope we fund a solution cause I am nervous even starting it below freezing which is dumb IMO we need a fix

 

they had the same kinda probleblems with the 7-800 with the crancase vent. finally recalled it, cmon POLARIS fix , now I better go look at mine

 

Forget the plug - I'm gonna have that hole welded shut! What happens then.....you blow up the PCV on the exterior of the motor???? Perfect! Why won't the Engineers sit down with the mechanics when designing things!!??? That PCV (frangible) could have been easily designed on the exterior of the block leaving the cavity on the interior void.

 

i agree my thought was to put some loctite or something to hold tha plug in better but than what blows out next a main seal in which you would have to split the motor i don't know all i know is i shouldn't have to worry about it at all i haven't had trouble with the 2011 yet but i am real cautious now i won't even start them if its not above freezing and how often does that happen in North Dakota not very often so i just use the good old 800 i hope someone who monitors these forums can give us an answer so i can use the wheelers year around not just in the summer

 

it seems like the better (ya right)these bikes are suppose to get, the worse the problems they have. i think polaris used to take a hell of alot more pride in the years ago bikes then they do in the newer models but maybe it's just me.

 

What I don't get is once Polaris have no problem they create one from where one never existed.

A crank case oil vent line ? ,how can Polaris screw that up? It was just a rubber tube from the motor to the air box at one time , nows its a weak fixture at the motor and they vent it to the head light housing instead?

Even if it could not freeze and break who whats the excess oil vented from hilly rides and tip overs blowing into there head light housing.

 

here is what polaris had to say in 2009 and mine did get the new breather it didn't help

 

Why even use a plastic one way check valve. The old system was a direct unrestricted vent line from the motor to the air box, if the ATV tipped over and oil flow into the air box ,who cares. Just clean the air box out and add oil to the motor.
You have a little mess in the air box but it was a 100% nothing could break.

I see the reasoning of check valves on the gas tank vent hoses but a motor cant get hot enough to ignite motor oil ,plus it all flows and stays in the air box anyways.
