First ride out this year. We drove our 2003 Polaris 800 RMK about 4 minutes and then met our group where we stopped. Noticed the motor was revving high. Hit the kill switch and it didn't shut the motor off. Tried turning off the key and the motor still kept running. Opened up the hood and saw smoke billowing out from around the spark plugs. Turned the fuel switch off and then about 15 seconds later the motor stopped running. Someone made the comment about coolant but we looked at the reservoir and it was full. Smoke still billowing out so I pulled the cables off the spark plugs. Noticed the front baffles were starting to melt so then we started dumping snow on it. Towed it back home. Thoughts on what went wrong? Not sure if it is worth it to try and replace parts or try a motor replacement, or just sell it for parts. I appreciate any help on this.
We have had this sled for about ten years and had a couple problems with coolant coming out and the motor overheating as well.
