This post is for my friend:
Unaware to me, my oil line cracked and emptied the oil reservoir. I was cruising taking it easy going around 25mph and the sled just died. I am uncertain if the oil light or temp gauge came on, it was a bright day.
What is an expected compression I should expect - sled is a 1996 Skandic with 1300 miles?
I'm going to pull the exhaust and try to inspect the cylinder walls for possible scoring. This sled is new to me, so I don't know if it shut down due to heat (safety feature)?
Without pulling the heads, what other ideas do you guys have for determing the damage - if any, I may have done?
Worst case scenario I expect a new top end with a possible cylinder boring, what would you expect for a cost for parts excluding labor?
I appreciate any feedback, I need this sled to be reliable, not a lake sled! I am currently going through the entire sled - lines, idler bearings, etc.
Thanks for any info!
