Hey can someone let me know what oil pressure there Trooper idles at when hot? Prefer wet line gauge answers..... Mine is at 50 or more hot then down to 12lb hot.... I did alittle research and came up with worn bearings...800 Miles? I guess it could be... I also looked at the ford forums found there might be a pressure relief valve to mess with to adjust some...I believe I found the plug for it but no research yet on it....

well that makes me nervous I got about 900 miles on mine my oil light flickers at idle but when on it its off. I tested my oil pressure with a gauge a while back maybe last summer and I remember my numbers were little better than what was outlined and I know that the pressure switch on these sux. So this motor is basically a ford 1.6????

Well it's a lot like a few motors out there. Lol! There's simularities of a ford but I think it's still pretty much Chery. With what I have heard. Mine will flicker the oil light when idling hot also. I'm gonna check it out more next week. Hopefully I get a job soon so I can just pull the motor and go through it.

I have a wet line on mine 5/16in to get fast reading. Mine runs at 25 to 30psi at idle hot and 65 to 70 when moving. I tested mine with differient weight oils and I get best results with 40 or 50w oil if I can get straight weights. If not 20/40 or 20/50 it will turn over slower when it is cold but not by much. I have just under 30,000 miles now with no mechanical problems. I found for myself that changing oil and filter and keeping air filter clean was what I needed to keep mine running smooth. This works for me but everyone does things differient.

Wow Lowgear, you have 30,000 miles on your Trooper? That's more then I've heard on any UTV.

That's really not unreasonable. The basic engine, transmission and the rest of the drive train (Assuming the diffs have been upgraded) are all taken from the automotive market. If maintained properly they should last 100,000 miles. The Troopers problems have been the rest of the things like wiring, joints, swing arms, suspension etc.

Ok that allen screw I mentioned above is just a plugged oil port. No valving in there. Adjusted my idle up to 1000 to keep the pressure up for now. Going to get rebuilt over the winter.

I didn't have this problem until I tried Mobil One synthetic. Now if my T2 temp gets above 195 my oil light will flicker at idle. I put a remote oil filter on which has two large oil filters. It added an extra gallon of oil to the engine, now the oil stays cooler and so has helped the low oil pressuer issue alot.

      Picked up an essentially new 2022 UT400 with 9 miles on it.  Decided to change the oil because it's probably never been done.  Pulled the dipstick and noticed it was overfull then went and pulled the drain plug and took off the filter and it was like brown water running out.  What should I start checking?

      My 2021 Odes Dominator 800 bogs down at 25mph and won’t go over that speed. I have changed the fuel pump and it still does the same, it runs and idles fine, it has great reverse speed, but it won’t accelerate past 25mph. Any Ideas?

      Belt started slipping when I used it in high gear. It works okay in low unless I'm trying to power it up a hill and then it slips.., Ordered a new belt and went to change it and found a good bit of oil in the belt housing. Has anyone experienced this? Belt looks fine. Only have 300 miles on this thing..

      I have a Joyner Trooper 1100 4 place that has been sitting for a number of years. I have everything taken care of but i can't get the fuel through the injectors. Fuel pump puts full pressure on them but they don't turn on or spray fuel. Any ideas?

      I've got a 2023 UT400 (bought from tractor supply) and I've been beating my head against a wall with it.
      It will start and idle perfectly. The second I touch the throttle it sputters and dies.
      I've checked that the fuel pump is working  (it is).
      I've replaced the injector, throttle position sensor, O2 sensor, and intake air sensor. All with no change.
       
      I've just taken a look a the schematic, and there is a crank position sensor as well.

      Could this be the source of my troubles? If so, where is this thing located? I can't seem to find it on any drawings from the parts suppliers.
