Praire 650 overheating
My 2002 Praire 650 is over heating. I had not used it for about a year. I drove it for 25 min. and the temp. light came on. I changed out the coolant and water in the radiator, checked the thermostate, and cleaned the filter. Drove it another 20 min. and it over heated again. One more thing I noticed that the motor oil dip stick smells like gas. Does anyone know of something else I should be checking? Thanks for any info.

Overheating:
> Is the cooling fan comes on when hot (~192 F)?
> Is the radiator clean?
Gas in oil:
> Change oil and filter immediately.
> When not using the quad, turn fuel petcock to OFF position always. Yours don't have auto vacuum operated fuel shut off system.
> If you feel your quad less power than before, check cam lobes for wear (possibly due to gas).
