7.3 n/a idi I darned near tripped over while doing an engine swap on a 2018 Polaris Ranger 500 at Eagan lake BC. (That's south-central British Columbia, just shy of the arctic ice flows and about halfway to the land of oil, beer and cow farts over on the smelly side of the rockies)
It had sat alone in a field where it broke down 19 years ago and had pretty much become one with the aspens, sawgrass and critters. Long story short (or vise versa?) two group 31 batteries, a couple litres of straight 30, half a litre of dexron3 in the dry power steering pump and a whiff of ether and I drove it onto a trailer for home and fell madly in love with it.
After replacing the return lines, all oils, fluids and filters -- including diesel -- it looked like the two of us (Me and my Arrow) ...
In this thread I hope to describe the problems that are slowly manifesting and with some luck and copious amounts of hard liquor I shall attempt to address them. If you feel inclined to fire off a few deeply offensive insults, please feel free, but the odd answer to what ails would also be gratefully appreciated.
On to problem one, after showing you some nude pics of the beast in the next post...
