How do you replace the main bearing on a 2510 kawasaki mule?
There is only one main bearing. It is on the flywheel side and is a plane bearing (not a ball or needle bearing). You have to remove the crankshaft, press the old bearing out and press the new one in. Once the new one is installed, it MUST be checked for proper oil clearance. If it's not correct (tight), it will lock and destroy the rest of the engine. There is only one main bearing. It is on the flywheel side and is a plane bearing (not a ball or needle bearing).

What is knocking and anti knocking agents?
The most common agent is Methyl tert-butyl ether, also known as methyl tertiary butyl ether and MTBE; a chemical compound with molecular formula C5H12O. MTBE is a volatile, flammable and colorless liquid that is immiscible with water. MTBE has a minty odour vaguely reminiscent of diethyl ether, leading to unpleasant taste and odour in water. MTBE is a gasoline additive, used as an oxygenate and to raise the octane number, although its use has declined in the United States in response to environmental and health concerns. In the US it has been used in gasoline at low levels since 1979 to replace tetra-ethyl lead to help prevent engine knocking. Oxygen helps gasoline burn more completely, reducing tailpipe emissions from pre-1984 motor vehicles.
Other anti-knocking compounds are available as oxygenate additives for gasoline, for example ethanol and related ethers, e.g. tert-amyl methyl ether (TAME). Ethanol has been advertised as a safe alternative by the agricultural interest groups in the USA and Europe. Its lack of toxicity is not different from MTBE, but as a polar solvent, it drives off nonpolar hydrocarbons from the gasoline, a problem that MTBE does not cause.

How do you change sliders on a 97' ski doo formula?
loosen track, tip machine enough to remove screw on one side front of slider, use a screwdriver/hammer to move the slider towards the back of the machine and through a track cog hole, may have to slightly pry it through to start, keep moving it back until out, measure old to new after removal, cut new to same size and tap through the same hole until screw hole lines up in front, put screw in. tip machine on other side and repeat. I took and used the small piece I cut to make slider the correct size as a sacrificial stiking device so as to not dammage the new slider. after second one is on, tighten track back up to spec and allign and good to go. Probably one hour from start to finish.

How do you test a tractor starter that does not spin?
Start by checking the selenoid switch - you take a heavy wire or screwdriver and put across the two main connections for the main wire and if it doesn't turn over then, try putting the booster cables from a good battery - put ground on the body of the starter and the positive on the post where the wire is hooked on, if it doesn't turn over then your brushes maybe bad or if someone has hit it with a hammer or hard object you may have smashed the magnets inside it. In which case you will have to get new magnets, brushes or a new starter.

Have a 1996 ski-doo formula sl 500 it will cough then lose power for a while then it will run ok?
Coughing through the carbs is a sign that there is not enough fuel at that time for the engine. 2 cycle engines can burn a piston if fuel is not enough adequate. I would recommend cleaning the carbs. If you need more help contact me through my board and I will try to help.
