I guess you can't take a Polaris 800 out for a ride in the summer without it over heating. Wife and I were riding around some property today. Of course when we get as far away from the truck at the back corner of the property, the temp gauge comes on, engine starts skipping, and I smell coolant. I Shut the engine off immediately and lifted the hood and see coolant spewing out from the reservoir. I let it cool down for 30 minutes, drink a couple Bud Lights, poor some water in the radiator and we made it back to trailer.

This is the 2nd time it's happened and both times it was during a hot day after riding for approximately 45 minutes. Not pushing the engine. Just riding logging roads. I just had it serviced and they found nothing wrong with the radiator, water pump, ect. Getting kind of pissed now. Y'all got any suggestions?

I'll be waiting till after 6pm to ride this thing until it cools off around here.

I'd be rid of that thing faster than Hoyt goes thru a fifth of vodka.


I firmly believe that a double gallows should be constructed on the East Lawn of The White House. Politicians who willfully and shamelessly violate their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America should be swiftly tried and, upon conviction, publicly hanged at sunup the day after conviction. If multiple convicts are to be hanged they can choose with whom to share the gallows or names shall be drawn from the hangman's hat to be hanged 2 at a time.

Sounds like you may not be getting enough air flow to the radiator. Is something impeding air flow like maybe the radiator has dirt in it? Is it a design flaw you think?

You blow out your air filters, main radiator and condenser regularly? And doc that's not normal. You need to sell it or get a good mechanic on it.

Dose the fan come on at around 200-204*? It should if it gets to 206* and doesn't come on, lt could be a fan relay

U can also do a over ride to the fan and turn it on manually. U shouldn't have to but it's an option to help keep it cooler

My tractor does it when it does not get enough airflow. The air filter and radiator get clogged up with weeds and grass seed. That could be your problem.

Rhino did that just puttering around for an hour or so couple weeks ago- not pushing engine. cleaned the radiator really well and that seemed to solve problem. made sure fan was working as it should. NEVER have problem when the weather turns cool, so I don't know what the real culprit is....
