What is so special about Isoflex grease?
Kluber ISOFLEX TOPAS NB 52 is a lubricating grease with a wide service temperature range for plain and rolling bearings. It consists of a synthetic hydrocarbon oil and barium complex soap. It is resistant to water, ambient media, oxidation ageing, and it protects reliably against corrosion.
What can I use instead of Isoflex grease?
It seems that guys that run can-am 4 wheelers are substituting isoflex with Red LIne CV-2 grease and/or Green Grease ( available at auto-zone for $9 per 14 oz tube ). As far as I can find out on my own, it will work just as the Kluber Isoflex NB 52.
How long does Isoflex Grease last?
300 hours operation is the engineering standard.
How do you test a snowmobile crank bearing?
You can check crank run out easily in the chassis by setting up a dial indicator on the PTO (with the clutch removed). Pull the Plugs and have some one pull the rope easy while you watch the dial indicator. Hopefully you didn’t pull the crank out of the cases.
How do you check a 2 stroke snowmobile crank seal?
To check your crank seals, you usually run the sled at idle, then spray like carb cleaner or similar and if the idle changes, you have a bad seal.
How do you grease a Polaris jackshaft?
On the jackshaft, look for a small hole and use a grease needle. If it doesn’t have the hole, you can loosen the three nuts on the bolts holding the bearing “flangette” and pack the inside with grease.
Do snowmobiles have grease fittings?
Skidframes usually have about a half-dozen grease fittings. Grease the front suspension, greasable steering parts and the jackshaft bearing, too. Inspect Reed Cages And Petals. Most modern two-stroke snowmobile engines utilize case-reed induction.
How do I know if my crank seals are bad?
How do you pressure test a 2 stroke?
To test simply connect leak down tester hose to a 1 quart leak proof container and pressurize to 6 PSI. If no leakage occurs in ten minutes the tester is leak proof. To locate leaks spray a soapy water solution over fittings and connections and look for soap bubbles.
