My son's 2009 Polaris 700 is using a lot of coolant. So much that it is fouling spark plugs and washing down the PTO side cylinder. I pressure tested it today and it is not leaking from the head gaskets as I do not see any coolant on the piston. I pumped it to 15 pounds and within 3 minutes, it goes to 0. The coolant bottle is down 4 inches now too.
We just put a top end gasket in it last weekend to see if it was the issue, apparently not.
I am wondering if the water pump seal is out that it would just leak into the PTO side bottomend? We put a crank in it last fall and it did not leak at all before that so I wonder if that did something to the seal.
It looks like the motor is coming out to solve the issue regardless.
Anybody have suggestions what else it could be?
