2025 anyone ?
Hello I have a question, so I have a 2008 can-am ds 450 .
For some reason it Turn on and drives if I continue to give it gas . But as soon as I sit in one place for longer then 30 seconds it turns off , and keeps doing that , I thought it would be the fuel pump relay but I already change it and it’s doing the same thing can you help me out
love the frankenstein stitches on the FL fender!
Just tell them opinions very.
Use a small gear puller
First, do no harm, works on motors to. Alum. is a beast to weld especially if it's oxidizing.
I keep learning new stuff from watching your videos — even ones from several years ago! I was wondering (from the last video in this series) why you didn't grind a "v" and use something to fill it (for the oil leak). Thank you for explaining your reasoning! After listening, it made perfect sense!
I must respectfully disagree with the bar welded in under the engine. It is more than strong enough to do the job. The issue I have is that it is too narrow. When (not IF Lol) rocks rub against the bottom of the quad, one will eventually be pointed and with the large unprotected area on either side of the bar damage will occur. IMHO a plate should have been used with holes drilled in it for water to drain, especially since the bottom oil drain plug will no longer be used and access isn't needed to that area under the engine.
Mustie has forgotten more information than I have ever learned for sure so I know better than to say I am smarter then he is. I run dune buggies as a hobby and have learned the hard way about what does and does not work. The degree from the "School of Hard Knocks" is prominently posted on the wall in my garage Lol.
Aren't you afraid that driving over that terrain will open up the oil leak before you can sell it?
Tell them if they are so informed and know a better way, to make their own videos.
HIiii Mustie friend , k for the job BUT BUT the woods need badly cleaning up, wood chipper brush hog mower and some heavy sweating
I like it! Well done sir. Looks like you even have a garage for it. I have woods with a field beside it and LOTS and lots of wolf spiders! 🕷
awesome videos
Nobody throws out Honda Quads in my Area ever.
Explanation re drain plug repair and drainage holes in frame hold water for me 🙂
Watch all the time ,great fun for "old" ret engineers andex gear head. Curious just how you make a living? Repairs, selling refurbished old stuff what.
About those pliers you showed on your last video I found them on the Harbour Freight website. They show no part number but they do come in a 3 pc. set of 3 different size pliers. They call them Loge Reach Hose Grip Pliers. The 3 pc. set goes for $14.99. I hope this helps.

Did you change the rearend gear oil ? Looks like a fill plug there.
Aluminum is porous it will not hold oil, cases are the worst they are full of lamentation and you can see it with your eyes. The holes are there for welding up the tubes or they would pressure up the tubes and get porosity.
love the down load maneuver
total brake check
sweet
do you like those quick drain plugs where you dont need to remove it because it has a valve to open in the middle of it
trails are suppose to be bumpy
'Let's start with lube and beatings. I start my mornings that way.' ROFL! I almost missed that one!
Cool I like that you have a lot of room to test drive your fixed machines
Damn good job mate, well done,
Looks like you need to clean your forest up hahahaha never really seen a trail !!! ðŸ‘
Is all that land yours?
" I think we should start out with some lube and beatings… I like to start my mornings that way " 🤣🤣🤣
Paints the new welded metal Piece and leaves all the rest of existing bare metal 😀 LOL
J-B weld is a good product but NOT a fix-all.
is JB weld not just a brand name of the epoxy you used!? ….
Breaks are overrated….
Why don't you tap that pedal and insert grease zerk
Hey! You forgot to say duck on the first test ride. Come on! That branch smacked me pretty hard in the face dangit! Otherwise great vid! 😋
awesome videos!! PB Bastard and Fluid film are two awesome products also!
Put some heat in the break lever then spray on pb blaster. I think it sucks it towards the heat. Kind of like soldering. I spoke too soon, now your heating it
@23:30 , nice XJ!
ur awesome to watch i would weld that drain plug its aluminum u hit a tree or rock and ur expoxy is not gonna hold up.
Another one in the win column. Good job Mustie
I just picked one of these up in a trade, I got a 84 CR125 for free w a blown motor and traded it for this 250that runs going thru it now…
