RAW GAS SMELL

It also got the O2 sensor issue. Not sure how to fix that. Maybe a tune? I think somebody's already tried a different O2 sensor with a different range.
Is somebody said I think the two problems might be related. So I don't think I should modify that valve until I figure out what the problem is
I’m running a Gilomen ECU tune and I still get the O2 sensor code when I’m in the higher elevations. It doesn’t seem to affect anything. Still have full power. It usually seems to pop up if I idle very much, and usually goes away after a bit of riding.
 
If that was the case it would do it all the time . When fuel tank is half or less the radiator lines under tank start vaporizing fuel causing smell . I will be putting canister on mine . Thanks for input .
So you think the radiator lines are heating up the fuel? My coolant lines have been insulated with pipe wrap for months and it still does it. I haven't notice if ambient temperature effects it or not. We are heading back to CO in two or three or weeks and will do some more checking. Thanks
 
No that’s a winter project .
Thanks. I talked to Polaris today about the gas smell as well as the o2 sensor out of range. They acted like they hadn't heard of either problem. I then called a dealer in Lake City CO as someone had posted that they were having trouble with all of theirs. They said all of them had the o2 sensor issue at high altitude but they weren't having gas fume issues. They also said they had talked to Polaris many times about the o2 sensor issue. He said its an EPA related issue. They run them lean for pollution, then you get them at altitude and they really run lean. I asked them what gas they ran and he said 91 ethanol free - if that makes any difference.
 
Does anyone have any updates on this issue? We have a 2025 xp 2dr and with the windows open it smells for gas terrible. No matter the level of fuel.

So some of us have been putting charcoal canisters on vent tube. My machine is consistent . Always smells when we get to half a tank . We ride around 6,000 Elv.
 
If your machine is under warranty, you need to call polaris directly and complain. If they get enough complaints, maybe they'll put out a recall. This is a safety issue as far as I'm concerned. Needs to be fixed asap.

I did complain. They said they "had never heard of that before"..

Good luck on that . I do all my own work . I would not let Polaris shop mechanics change my oil . Sorry that’s from 50 years of turning a wrench experience. There might be a couple good mechanics out there but far and few .
Mostly just want people to put in a complaint so polaris is aware of the issue so hopefully they can correct it. I do all my own repairs as well.
Guess if the vent goes up into the rops that would explain how it's getting in the cab.
