Nice, did you pick it up already? I just ordered yesterday the service manual (yes polaris sells them) and suppose to receive it on saturday. I am still waiting for my EUC to be released. Uffff, i am eager to have it already.
This is one of those times i would like to be close to Cali, my crew and myself would really enjoy something like this. Enjoy for the rest of us that can not make it.
I have my 1123 insured through Hagerty with full cover for agreed value and a 2006 1097R1 through progressive, this one just liability. I am in south Florida and can't think texas to be worse insurance wise.
I once hsd a rim doing the same thing. It was so bad that it was scraping on the portal hub. Turned out the 2 faces were not seated and tighten correctly.
Davesc, have you found any helpful information on these machines? I just won one and am in the process of transporting from GA. Any information you share will be appreciated.
I have 2 or 3 more PCS's from other trucks i have, one of them being a donnor. I might try down the road replacing it. I will try 1st to remove the cover of the one being used and figure out what model as you suggested.
Ok, probably that explains my assumptions. The engine is a turbo with the TPS originally from that engine. Usually when the pump is sent for repairs/tune up the TPS are not moved. It could be this TPS was always adjusted (as should be) for the original truck (unknown where it came from) and...
Sooooo, the next questions should be: can the shift points be changed in this truck? Is that easy to do? Reason i am asking is, this was an armored truck and probably due to weight the shift pointas are kind of high. For instance, 4th gear engages between 47-50 miles. Is that normal in this type...
Problem that never existed solved, it is engaging at the same time the 4th gear engages i assume. Went for a test drive, touch the brake and voilà. Engaged and disengage.
Thanks mog.
It could be, not today but i remember i tried once and while at probably 60 MPH i touched the brakes and i hear an increase in RPM or something unlocking. This is the thing, i am good with diesel but transmissions are new to me, my background is marine diesel.
But now i am concerned, i can not...
Yes, you are correct in both of your statements. I am trying to find cables 497 and 498, i see them coming out of one of the selenoids in the transmission but i can't find them in the front. I will keep checking into this, but is dark now. I will study the schematics and target this next. Thanks.
Yes, the bolts on top of the cover are a no go. I put some PB blaster on it and will get back to it in a couple of days.
Meanwhile, i believe my issue is this one, wries 97A and 97B were never connected. Go figure. I will have to splice them and get them in place.
I remember i had to extend...
This one just flashed 12 several times more than 5 times until i stopped it myself. Tryied twice, the same outcome. I will check for the RPM wires on the transmission.
Hey Mog, yes i just checked for codes and only 12 (1 flash then 2 flashes) indicating 12 volts. Nothing else. I am going to double check on the RPM sensor as i recently replaced the AC lines and saw a conector on the rop of the transmission and i remember i had to extend it for the engine...
