I also blew a piston but on a 600 Doo. They told me it was water in the gas when I had it fixed. In my opinion the ethanol in the gas is causing a lot of problems. All manufacturers sled are blowing up. Polaris is having a lot of issues with their 550 fan cooled. A friend of mine burned 2 pistons in as many weeks. This gas is not good for all small engines!! IMHO!
