Refresh Kit Versus Rebuild Kit
This kit does not list a piston, cylinder, or crankshaft. Therefore, measure and inspect those parts before ordering. If any of them fall outside the correct specifications, select a rebuild kit that includes the required replacement parts.
Check the Related Engine Parts
First, inspect the piston and cylinder for wear or damage. Next, check the timing guides and tensioner. Also, inspect the valve guides and seats before installing the new valves.
Compare the Smaller Top End Refresh Kit
If the engine only requires a piston ring and top-end gaskets, review the Polaris Ranger and Sportsman 500 top end refresh kit for 1996–2013 models. The smaller kit leaves out the valves, timing chain, complete gasket kit, and water pump seal kit supplied here.
