    I'm thinking the intercooler that sits in the plenum are having a known problem for exploding and blowing aluminum metal and antifreeze into the engine

    So after looking at how much dirt was in the engine I went back and started looking at the air Box in all the intake plumbing and found this broken sensor that had peeled away from the plastic intake tube... After everything I've seen from Polairs this does not surprise me

    Here I thought Polaris went to a forged steel rod for the Turbo cars but they still used the same old junk powder metal rods
