I bought a 2005 rev 800 last fall that had a dealer rebuilt motor. (new skidoo crank, pistons, pin bearings, ect...) On my last ride it started clanking, I shut er down & towed er out. Tore it apart and found the Mag side rod bearing was shot. There was a small amount of blueing on the con rod indicating heat. (sorry, no pics) Everything else looked good. No other signs of heat, jetting was on the rich side. Plenty of lube. Oil consumption was 30:1. I took it to my dealer and he said it was the cheap super tech oil I was using and to only use skidoo oil. Could this be true?
Or did I get a bad crank from Skidoo? This thing only has 600 miles on it since the last rebuild. ![Mad :mad: :mad:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
