Rode my sled (2002 800 RMK) a couple of weekends ago, and the sled boiled over when riding back to the truck (just taking it real easy), filled back with coolant, purged it, and everything seems fine when riding this weekend.
When I got done loading up, I opened the hood and I saw I had a small amount of steam coming out from between the cap and the coolant bottle. With a closer look, the cap had actually slipped up from underneath the thread on the neck.
It was still on and wasn't coming off, but I think pressure is pushing the cap off. The cap looked like it was cross-threaded before I owned it, like the cap can't get a good bite on the neck.
Anyone have anything like this happen?
I am probably going to order a bottle and cap just to make sure (as long as I can still get them at a dealer, it is a 9 year old sled )
