Rode On friday, and my bro popped the motor in his 01 MC 800 Mod. Towed it home and found this.
It was about 7 degrees Celcius i Beleive, and he was doubling his girlfriend, the sled has a extremely short snowflap, and I stole his scratchers. So he had none. Could getting hot do this? the sled has never really gotten hot, and now all of a sudden I think it did. We always ask him to put a longer snowflap on but he doesn't.
Ran it fairly easy that day. About 10 minutes into the ride i stopped in front of him, and as I started again he went to go and it bogged down and went boom.
The head is okay, and MAG piston and jug looks fine. but we havent been able to pull the cylinder off the piston yet..seems stuck
the PTO side was seized because some piston debris entered the bore and smashed over the piston siezing it at the bottom of the port on the down stroke.
The PTO piston's skirt broke right up to the wristpin, and some!
I've never seen damage like this before. and the loose pison debris took out the bottom of the case.
Sled has twin Jaws pipes and cans. I think shaved head, ported and polished he was told, Pods on carbs, Oil injection removed, if any of that makes a difference.
