Disassembly/Inspection - Polaris Engines
1 . Remove carburetors/throttle bodies.
2 . Remove starter motor. Inspect O-ring and bore in cover
for damage.
3 . Remove intake manifold. Inspect sealing surface for
nicks or damage that may cause an air leak. Remove
reed blocks and stuffers.
Measure air gap between fiber reed and reed block as
shown. The air gap should not exceed .015" (.4
mm). If clearance is excessive DO NOT attempt to
reverse the reeds to reduce the air gap. Always replace
them if damaged. Check each fiber reed for white stress
marks or missing material. Replace if necessary.
