Sorry guys! i have been on other projects lately. interesting theory on the oil not making it to the top end. the kids rode it around a little this weekend with no issues. it was unseasonably cool this weekend and they didn't ride it hard or very long. no issues at all other than it wanted to only run on full/half choke for longer than usual. it is carbed and air cooled. is the fan control unit the same as the cdi? so should i drain the oil and check the filter placement first you think? the filter was installed by the shop in the winter when it was in for its service. i would hope they didn't put it in backwards...

I have an 09 trx500fe. Kids were riding it and said it quit running. I went down to it in the woods and it would not start.Seemed very hot. Came back next day and it started right up. I suspected the fan wasn't working. Ran 12 volts to the fan and it worked. Grounded out wire for oil temp sensor and fan kicked on. Figured oil temp sensor was bad so i replaced it. After oil temp sensor replacement, i ran it to see if fan would kick on. It never did. Ran for about 20 mins and it died on me. Would not start back up until after it sat for awhile and cooled. I am officially stumped. Any help would be apprecitated. Thanks!
