mxu 500 - fully rebuilt engine -- reverse gear info
« on: December 10, 2023, 09:40:56 AM »
Got the engine rebuilt tonight, new rings, new gaskets, and starts on a dime and has a really nice idle! runs like a kitten or lynx :] haha

Reverse gear is out though. I've only got 5 minutes runtime on the engine after the rebuild, but I can shift it into reverse and it pops out and makes the grinding sound. It also really doesnt wanna go into park tonight, it like is sticky or pushy going into park.

So whats up with the reverse gear. Is this a hard thing to replace. I'm guessing that metal washer thing in the reverse gear broke, and its not ligning up right in there.

Has anyone else done this or does anyone else have experience with this. I've rebuilt tons of cylinders but havent taken the gearbox apart on the atvs. What do I do, and what am I getting into. Thanks.

An Error Has Occurred!
