FUEL INJECTION FUEL TANK ELECTRONIC FUEL INJECTION Exploded View General Information The Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) system is a complete engine fuel and ignition management design.
FUEL INJECTION Initial Priming / Starting Procedure FUEL LINES NOTE: The Injection system must be purged of all air prior to the initial start up, and/or any time the system has been disassembled. Quick Connect Removal/Installation CAUTION If the EFI system is completely empty of fuel or has been disassembled and repaired: 1. 2. 3.
FUEL INJECTION ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULE (ECM) Sportsman 500 EFI RPM Limit: Operation Overview “Hard” Limit - Ignition suppression occurs when RPM peaks rapidly: The ECM is the brain or central processing computer of the entire EFI fuel/ignition management system. During operation, sensors continuously gather data which is relayed through the wiring harness to input circuits within the ECM.
FUEL INJECTION FUEL PUMP ASSEMBLY Operation / Testing NOTE: All EFI units utilize quick connect fuel lines. An electric fuel pump assembly is used to transfer fuel to the EFI system from inside the fuel tank. This assembly includes the fuel pump, regulator and fuel gauge sender. The pump is rated for a minimum output of 25 liters per hour at 39 psi and has a nonserviceable internal 30-micron filter.
FUEL INJECTION 3. If the pump did not activate (Step 2), disconnect the plug from the fuel pump. Connect a DC voltmeter across terminals “A” and “C” in the plug, turn on the key switch and observe if a minimum of 7 volts is present. If voltage is between 7 and 14, turn key switch off and connect an ohmmeter between the terminals “A” and “C”' on the pump to check for continuity. NOTE: If there was no continuity between the pump terminals, replace the fuel pump/tank assembly. 3.
FUEL INJECTION 7. Loosen the fuel tank hose and pull the fuel line from the tank. NOTE: A small amount of fuel may come out of the fuel line or tank. Plug the fuel line and tank inlet or use a shop towel during removal. Fuel Line Fuel Tank Installation 1. 2. Reinstall the tank assembly. Reconnect the sender wiring harness and route the harness properly. Install the fuel line(s) and verify they are secure. 3. Reinstall the two fuel tank mounting bolts at back of tank. 4.
FUEL INJECTION FUEL FILTERS FUEL INJECTOR General Information General Information NOTE: All EFI units utilize quick connect fuel lines. The fuel injector mounts into the intake manifold, and the fuel rail attaches at the top end. Replaceable O-Rings on both ends of the injector prevent external fuel leakage and also insulate it from heat and vibration. EFI Engines use a non-serviceable, high-volume, highpressure, 30-micron internal fuel pump filter and a replaceable 10-micron, in-line fuel filter.
FUEL INJECTION Injector problems due to dirt or clogging are unlikely due to the design of the injectors, the high fuel pressure, the use of filters and the detergent additives in the gasoline. Symptoms that could be caused by dirty/clogged injectors include rough idle, hesitation/stumble during acceleration, or triggering of fault codes related to fuel delivery.
FUEL INJECTION 3. Disconnect crankshaft sensor connector from wiring harness. Test resistance between the terminals. A reading of 185Ω ± 20% at room temperature (20°C, 68° F) should again be obtained. NOTE: If the resistance reading is incorrect, remove the screws securing the sensor to the mounting bracket and replace the sensor.
FUEL INJECTION INTAKE AIR TEMPERATURE SENSOR (IAT) Operation Overview The intake air temperature sensor (IAT) is used to indicate charge air temperatures to the ECM. Mounted on the rear of the air box, the IAT sends a varying voltage signal to the ECM in direct correlation to the ambient air temperature. This signal is processed by the ECM and compared to the internal pre-programmed maps to determine the required fuel and ignition settings for the amount of engine load.

CARBURETOR - SPORTSMAN 450 When the pressure above and below the diaphragm are nearly equal, the slide moves downward under spring pressure. Raising or lowering the slide increases or decreases the cross sectional area in the venturi, and therefore the air velocity in the venturi is kept relatively constant. This provides improved fuel atomization and optimum fuel/air ratio. Pilot (Idle and Slow) System This system supplies fuel during engine operation with throttle valve closed (1) or slightly opened.
CARBURETOR - SPORTSMAN 450 Main System Float System As throttle valve (1) is opened, engine speed rises, and this increases negative pressure in the venturi. Consequently the vacuum slide (2) moves upward. The fuel in float chamber (3) is metered by main jet (4), and the metered fuel enters needle jet (5), in which it mixes with the air admitted through main air jet (6) to form an emulsion.
CARBURETOR - SPORTSMAN 450 Pilot Screw Air/Fuel Mixture Ratio The pilot system supplies fuel during engine operation with the throttle valve closed or slightly opened. The fuel/air mixture is metered by pilot screw and discharged into the main bore through the pilot outlet. E-Clip Position vs. Fuel Flow 2 3 4 CAUTION 4 The pilot screw is calibrated at the factory to meet EPA / CARB regulations for air quality standards and is sealed with a brass plug to prevent tampering.
CARBURETOR - SPORTSMAN 450 Jet Needle Throttle Opening vs. Fuel Flow The jet needle has five adjustment grooves cut into the upper portion, and is tapered from approximately the middle of the needle to the lower end. The top is fixed to the center of the throttle valve by the needle clip, and the tapered end extends into the needle jet. Fuel flows through the space between the needle jet and jet needle. This space does not vary until the throttle reaches the 1/4 open point.
CARBURETOR - SPORTSMAN 450 and float pin can be removed. 3. Remove inlet needle seat retaining screw along with plate, and carefully remove needle seat. NOTE: Do not use a pliers to remove the seat or permanent damage may occur. NOTE: The starter jet is removable. Upon disassembly, place the parts in a container for safe keeping. Carburetor Cleaning WARNING Protect eyes from contact with cleaner. Take appropriate safety measures during these procedures.
CARBURETOR - SPORTSMAN 450 Carburetor Inspection 1. diaphragm should fit properly in the carburetor body. Replace diaphragm assembly if diaphragm is damaged. Inspect jet needle and needle jet for wear. Look for discoloration, shiny spots, or an area that looks different than the rest of the needle. The middle to upper portion of the needle contacts the needle jet and is the most likely wear point. If jet needle shows signs of wear replace both the needle and needle jet to prevent a rich condition.

If adjustment is necessary, bend the tongue slightly. Be sure float measurement is even on left and right side.
CARBURETOR - SPORTSMAN 450 Fuel Level Test A fuel level test can be performed on some models if the drain hose fitting is accessible. Be sure to re–attach the bowl drain hose after performing the test. A fuel level test allows you to observe the height of the fuel in the float bowl without removing the carburetor. The fuel level can be observed with the engine either running or shut off, however, engine must run briefly to allow fuel level to stabilize. 1. Attach a clear line to drain fitting.

CLUTCH SYSTEM PVT SYSTEM Driven Clutch Operation PVT Operation Overview Driven clutches primarily sense torque, opening and closing according to the forces applied to it from the drive belt and the transmission input shaft. If the torque resistance at the transmission input shaft is greater than the load from the drive belt, the drive belt is kept at the outer diameter of the driven clutch sheaves.
CLUTCH SYSTEM EBS Clutch Operation PVT Maintenance / Inspection This EBS driven clutch provides the same engine braking abilities as the EBS drive clutch. Under normal operation the PVT system will provide years of trouble free operation. Periodic inspection and maintenance is required to keep the system operating at peak performance. The following list of items should be inspected and maintained to ensure maximum performance and service life of PVT components.
CLUTCH SYSTEM Drive Clutch Spring Measuring Spring Length: With the spring resting on a flat surface, measure its free length from the outer coil surfaces as shown. Refer to the spring specification chart for specific free length measurements and tolerances. Also check to see that spring coils are parallel to one another. Distortion of the spring indicates stress fatigue, requiring replacement. Table 6-1: Primary Clutch Springs The drive clutch spring has two primary functions: 1. 2.
CLUTCH SYSTEM Optional Shift Weights Shown below are optional shift weights which may be used in the PVT system. These shift weights have many different factors designed into them for controlling engagement RPM and shifting patterns. Shift weights should not be changed or altered without first having a thorough understanding the effects they have on belt to sheave clearance, clutch balance, engagement and shifting characteristics. - NLA - - NLA - 6 698 6.

ELECTRICAL INSTRUMENT CLUSTER Introduction Overview Refer To Illustration 1: (A) Needle (also flashes during warning condition) The Polaris ATV Instrument Cluster is powered by battery voltage (12 VDC) and requires inputs from the engine RPM, transmission gear, and transmission speed sensor for proper operation. Two harnesses plug into the cluster head; one from the transmission speed sensor, and one from the vehicle main harness.
ELECTRICAL 4. High/Low Battery Voltage • This warning usually indicates that the ATV is being operated at an RPM too low to keep the battery charged. A low battery warning may also occur under normal operation if the machine is at idle and high electrical load (lights, cooling fan, accessories) is applied. Driving at a higher RPM or connecting a battery charger will usually clear the warning. 5.

ELECTRICAL BATTERY Battery Activation Battery Identification WARNING NOTE: It is important to identify what type of battery you have installed in your ATV. Different types of batteries require different service procedures. Proper servicing and upkeep of your battery is very important for maintaining long battery life. Battery electrolyte is poisonous. It contains sulfuric acid. Serious burns can result from contact with skin, eyes or clothing. Antidote: External: Flush with water.
ELECTRICAL 4. Add electrolyte to bring level back to upper level mark on case. NOTE: This is the last time that electrolyte should be added. If the level becomes low after this point, add only distilled water. 5. 6. Inspect the battery fluid level. When the battery fluid nears the lower level, remove the battery and fill with distilled water only to the upper level line. To remove the battery: Charge battery at 1/10 of its amp/hour rating. Examples: 1/10 of 9 amp battery = .
ELECTRICAL 4. Install clear battery vent tube from vehicle to battery vent. WARNING Vent tube must be free from obstructions and kinks and securely installed. If not, battery gases could accumulate and cause an explosion. The vent tube should be routed away from frame and body to prevent contact with Route the cables correctly. 5. Low Maintenance Battery Off-Season Storage Battery voltage should be checked with a digital multitester. Readings of 12.
ELECTRICAL cell battery. Readings of 1.270 or greater should be observed in a fully charged battery. Differences of more than .025 between the lowest and highest cell readings indicate a need to replace the battery. Battery Load Test CAUTION To prevent shock or component damage, remove spark plug high tension leads and connect securely to engine ground before proceeding. Battery Hydrometer (PN 2870836) NOTE: This test can only be performed on machines with electric starters.
