Excellent! We live in interior Alaska where I snowplow and temps can get super cold, so I also check the engine block heater to make sure it works before winter.
like those tires. just picked up a lightly used 2006. Im desert riding, lots of gravel roads, lots of tough, sharp rock riding and climbs. So are you sold on the MassFX 6 ply? Also - do you mount these yourself or get it done at the shop? The prices are right, and they have good reviews. Thanks for your easy to follow maintenance tips. Its an excellent way to start my ownership. always been a bike guy. appreciate your video. well done.
Glad my videos helped you out! They’ve been a great tires. They have good grip and have over 2000 miles on them as of now. I did mount them myself which was fairly simple. I go over more details on these tires in this video ua-cam.com/video/zkzxHcZzQ94/v-deo.html
can you help with my mud pro 700, efi flashing on the dash and speedo needle going back and forth. bike starts and runs very nicely, and after a short time stops until I restart. flashing is annoying.
@@ArcticFrost i figurer it out it turns out The battery was perfect but it didn’t have enough contact with the poles but i took it off and cleaned the connections and tightened it very hard and it seems to be working again. I changed the break-pads on the front wheels because it was totally warm out one of the pads had even gotten half way warm of on the metal but it hadn’t damaged anything else fortunately. Also cleaned the air filter and the box it was in so it seems to be running smoother now too. Thanks 😊
Hopefully you're still fairly active and can reply to this. But I have this same model besides camo, and I was wondering, does yours run pretty hot? Gauge reads in the middle but I feel a lot of heat after just running it for a half hour. I bought it off an old man with 40hours on it and it only has 50 on it now but I feel like it runs pretty hot. At 30mph it's around 5500 rpms. Is this abnormal? Coolant, oil, and gas is all fresh @ArcticFrost
What size tires are on it? Sounds fairly similar to mine. Made this video to show what mine does, hope it helps! ua-cam.com/video/expM4JYC-QE/v-deo.html
Lmao he pulled out the level...no bs here
Thanks for noticing! 😂

Fuel filter? Great quick video btw.
Thanks! Use clean gas, keep the filler cap on and you won’t need to check the filter for a long time. 👍🏼
@@ArcticFrost yeah because gas cans never get dirt in them.

How often should I do oil changes on my 2012 550
How do you correct rear camber on rear wheel? Negative camber on a alterra/ tracker 570
Could be shocks but usually there just a little cambered
Wait so to check the diff level u pull the drain plug also ??
That was confusing. Still is.
add oil until it comes out of the drain plug?
For the diff fluid there is a fill level plug below the fill plug. The drain plug is on the bottom of the differential.
Whats the name of your tow hitch in the rear that ball joint reciever??
It's a 2" drop hitch but I flipped the ball for my little trailer. You can check it out at the link in the description it's a Reese brand.
Just wondering I have the same bike and I think my head gasket is gone. What are the consequences if I leave it for too long?
It’ll cause problems later on..I would get it replaced the sooner the better.
I have an arctic cat 550 2012 atv it runs good but sometimes the display keeps saying efi.
I think it thinks something is wrong with the efi sysem
Sometimes it will show EFI if the battery voltage is low.
@@ArcticFrost thank you I will check
@@ArcticFrost love this channel it helps a lot
@@gunnarflaten6774 Thanks man! Just sharing what I’ve learned over the years with these ATVs. 👍🏼
