Anyone got any Ideas. My sks 700 is getting hot after about five minutes of riding. I gave it a tune. Bled the system. It's getting plenty of snow kicked up underneath. Just trying to figure out the next step.

Did you raise the front of the sled to bleed it? If not, the rear cooler could be full of air. They sit higher than the motor.

If you had the system drained then you absolutely must have the front of the sled elevated to refill it properly. When you do get out on teh trail, is the rear heat exchanger getting hot? If it's not getting warm, but your temp light is coming on, then you're not getting circulation.

found the problem
found the culprit. the coolant was not circulating at all. the parts circulating we're not to be found. Probably melted and desintigrated. Any how, got it fixed and the machine runs great. Rode all season at 11000+ elevation and never got hot again. Thanks for the help.
