Still kicking your dog, I see.... ok pay attention this time.... NO ONE CALLED YOU A LIAR....I said post a pic and debate is over.. how is it you cant comprehend English? Not from here?

thats were my exhaust pipe is too.. right next to the duct that flows the heat out of the engine s mechanical fan ..it pulls air from filter box , thru rt side of engine cover and out thru duct between seats. Its not hot anymore. the exhaust pipe is but the heat is not in the cab now .......... good luck

yeah, Massimo cannot take a lickin and keep on tickin.. in fact, even if you baby them, they are trouble prone .. Mine was in the shop 6 times in the first year.. Massimo never paid one cent of warranty work.. Their "authorized" repair shops wont touch them unless you pay cash up front because Massimo wont pay them.

I had that same issue with my Massimo MSU500 .. Tried shielding the cab.. heat was still coming in everywhere . it was very hot with our 100* days here. The heat was coming from the outlet of the mechanical fan on passenger side. The duct exited right between the seats rear. And it was very hot! Turned out it was because the engine was running 240* and soon blew the head .. after getting it all repaired couple times, we bypassed the factory sender on radiator and ran electric cooling fan 100%.. guess what, no heat in the cab .. When winter came we installed an adjustable controller to keep the engine between 160*-180*.. All is well now and you can put your hand on that duct on a hot day.

I was about to type BROKEN ROD , when I read your next post.. thats not good.. you need to tear down and see what else it damaged .. cylinder, head, crankshaft ... and why it failed. I see you said it only has 300 miles? Massimo.... strikes again ... Good luck, hope its not too bad

good post

you wrote 50 MILES .... not 50 hours ... BIG difference

50 miles is not the break-in period.. My manual says burn 3 tanks of gas to break-in..

hahaha Happy Fathers DAY

no, because he already promised it to me.. Check is in the mail right now. Just had to pay the insurance of $900.00.....lol

no site is 100% safe. I just got a letter this week from MCG Health LLC telling me that they were breached and millions of us had our complete personal info stolen in March.. its out of control. Our Govt wont track them down and imprison them. .. FBI is too busy surveilling parents who speak up against CRT and Drag Queen strip club visits in their 1st graders classes

yeah, Maria is really Muhammed

I know. I tried to warn him, but hes a lonely old man by himself , desperate for human contact.. PERFECT target for scammers

It baffles me that anyone would fall for their con.. I know a guy from a Corvette forum that got hooked by one claiming to be hot chick from Russia.. She sent him naked pics and all. I kept telling him THATS NOT HER, its a dude conning you.. but he didnt believe me. She promised to fly to CA to see him.. I told him, wait, here it comes, I NEED $$$$ to get there.. Sure as sh&t , she made a story up needing cash for ticket.. dumbass sent her $500 ...she never got there

anybody else getting spam /fraud private messages on here besides me? How do I report it? He calls himself Maria .under ORANGE 15 name.. wants to hook up in UTVs .. con artist in Pakistan probably.. Cant ADMIN block this crap ? geesh

fishing is great.. Reds and Speckled Trout are really going strong right now. Weathers been nice too so Gulf is pretty calm . You can get out to the rigs easily and quickly .

yeah, everythings fine here.. been doing a lot of fishing.. Hadnt seen much traffic on here lately. Mine is still operating normally so knock on wood. You doing ok? Hows your runing?

its the head gasket ..or a cracked head... been there ..mine had both ..there are videos o repair if you feel up to DIY . parts available online. if not, find a mechanic willing to work on these. typically about $400-$500 for gasket

biggest issue with Massimo is overheating..

lol he wont need me to do that. cheers .

welcome aboard.. we can try to assist when needed

I know, I was waiting to hear if the swap went well. I want to do mine too. I wish everyone would come back and let us know what happens..

ditto .....see if its seized , and why. another member here had the transmission blow up and come thru the block, locking up crank

well, blame unions and democrats for making labor costs of $60 /hr for a guy pushing a button on a robot .. If that belt was Union made in NY or CA it would be $300.00 I have found GATES to still be good quality belts even tho its imported.. Dont buy the EL CHEAPO brand at Autozone.. I did once because Gates was out of stock.. lasted 2 months . Luckily I had put the old belt in the trunk.

on my 500 all you do is unplug the sender on the radiator and jump the two wires for the fan to run continuously when key is on.
