kenbar 04-20-2002, 02:28 AM 2002 Pantera, 600EFI. Noticing alot of filings in the chaincase oil. I am told this is normal for sleds but not willing to accept this yet. *Any comments? Filings are wear. I guess the question is what is excessive. *I am surprised to see evidence on the dipstick, even after a change of oil and 300 miles later. 1000-IMP 04-20-2002, 03:24 AM Powdery filings are O.K. on the dipstick, if you find any small chunks, then take it apart and inspect everything thoroughly. Sharkey 04-21-2002, 01:38 AM The end of dipstick is magnetic to catch wearing materials. Make sure you keep tightening chain, as first 1000 miles is when it stretches the most. http://www.snowmobileworld-s2.com/forums/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif ARCTICZRT600 04-26-2002, 03:21 PM Kenbar, just for kicks check your jackshaft bearings. *I had alot of shavings that I couldn't explain until I saw a groove starting on the gear side.I had a 98 ZR600 that had a bad bearing from the factory and caused alot of abnormal wear on the top gear. *Just something to consider. http://www.snowmobileworld-s2.com/forums/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif | ||
