Why is my Polaris Sportsman 4×4 not shifting?
I just changed out the shifter of my 1996 Polaris Sportsman 4×4 400. I now can’t get the linkage rods adjusted right. I can’t get it to shift in reverse.
How long does a Polaris ATV run before it dies?
It runs about 10 minutes, dies. The really weird part is that if you let it sit about 5 minutes it starts right back up again and runs great again. That is until it dies again.
Why is the magneto on my Polaris ATV not working?
A mechanic said it could be the stator getting hot but as I only have 325 hours on it and bought it new I can’t see how the magneto could be bad so soon. The only thing I can think of is that the plug cap might of got jerked on making it lose spark after it gets bumped around awhile. Or that the coil is failing.
Why does my Polaris ATV run out of gas?
It acts like it runs out of gas OR the spark fails. I put a new fuel filter, fuel pump, and nice fresh gas on it. I seen on the polaris site that the spark plug cap can be bought apart from the coil. Could it possibly be a coil problem?
What should I pay for a 1996 Polaris ATV?
Based on all my research and what I have seen and heard. $2500 is the minimum for a good used working condition, not abused Quad. Better condition goes up from there. IMHO I would ask $3000 and haggle but dont go lower than $2500.
How much is a 1996 Polaris Sportsman 500 worth?
It’s a 1996 (2013-1996 = 17 YEARS OLD!!!!) Even if it’s in “Mint” condition, technology has come a ways on these machines. NADA doesn’t even value them at that age and KBB lists a “Excellent Condition” 1996 Sportsman 500 4X4 (top of the line machine & value range for the year) at $1830…..
