Todays shop time

I went in the woods this morning and decided it was a bit to muddy so figured it was a good day to drop my skid plate and do a little cleaning, it had about 3 years of dirt on it. Theres 4>1/2" bolts on front and 4>5/8" bolts on back that hold it on, gives much needed protection in the woods, just makes it harder to grease the 2 brake zerks underneath, so before the plate went back on I grease it up, one wasn't working good so changed that one then blew all the rest of dirt off...

Worn Valve Plates Causing Slow Traveling Speed?

Hi all. I recently bought a used RTV and have been trying to resolve an issue. Any advice would be appreciated.

Problem: 2007 RTV900 with 1137 hrs only achieves 10 mph top speed in high range on flat/level road. I measured this with a GPS. Medium range also yields 9 mph. It is also very sluggish in all gear ranges; I'm comparing this to another one that I've driven which performs very well.

Diagnostics: Engine RPM was measured at 1350rpm idle and 3100rpm wide open throttle. It fails...

Worn Valve Plates Causing Slow Traveling Speed?

Seems to be a dog

Let me start by saying I purchased my RTV 1100C for farm use and never wanted a race car.

So here goes...

My RTV is two years old and has about 30 hours on it. Been real busy and don't get to use it enough. When I drive up the lane, about one mile long and a slight incline, the unit starts out around 18 MPH and slows gradually to 14 MPH.
I took it to the dealer and they said they adjusted the squash plates. Now you have to push the accelerator half way down to get it to move. Also the...

A/C compressor RTV1100

I had purchased two 1100's in which both had the compressors set up, pulley would not turn. There was no way I was going to pay what the dealer wanted for a compressor so I purchased a 11287C Universal Air Conditioner and a UAC RD10017C A/C Receiver Drier from ebay for a little less than $200 each machine. Installed these with the only difference being the connector had the be changes. So far they are working fine.

I went and wanted to see why the original compressors didn't work and tore...
