Quit hitting the throttle dude, a high compression engine won't start if you keep dickking around with the throttle like that it wanted to start a few times with just gas down the throat when you left the throttle alone lol just pour more gas down and lay off the throttle and let it start by itself it'll do it....
I want to say love your work, The only suggestion I have, I ran my own small engine shop for 10 years, and whenever I saw a bent valve on a head and had it broken down as far as you have this one, I always marked the valves as to their location and removed all the valves checked the springs hight and decarbonized everything with a soak and brushing in Seafoam and then hand lapped all the valves to the matching seats, and I also checked the head and cylinder surfaces for square and flatness, before reassembling them and of course all new high-quality gasket sets and new valve seals always. But you do a good job brother.
I just picked up the exact same quad for 1200 bucks and thus far it only seems to need carbs rebuilt and a starter solenoid, ill be checking the compression Spark and doing an oil change next week.
Congrats! it’s hard to believe the 1st jump box didn’t produce enough amps to spin the starter effectively. this seems like a big Win for you & didn’t spend extra time chasing Gremlins or non-issues. that 660 is gonna rip, Dude!
@@2vintage - I wasn’t…it’s what you do, Man. I have ideas for a ‘universal’ flywheel puller kit. I’ll AutoCAD it out this year & CNC from plate steel. I’m no pro fabricator or in the metal fab business, but I’ve enough KSAs to be scary. I’d love to send a prototype your way, since you get your hands on more random machines than anyone else I sub to…more than a Karl Childers
That must have been the best feeling ever. A few months ago I bought a non running polaris predator (finding parts for this atv was ROUGH). Cleaned fuel tank, repalced petcock,fuel lines, sparkcap, battery, spark plug, fuel pump and carb still wouldnt start. messed with it for an hour and realized the grounding cable from the battery just wasnt tight enough. tightned it, got it running and sold for a $2000 profit. I think i wanna get a fixer upper raptor next! Great video thank you!
I've had my 2001 since 2007 I never ever use the parking brake so one time years ago the parking brake switch got bumped just enough to activate it and tried riding it and it would not rev out just bumble at low rpms, I was baffled pulled the carbs (pain in the ass every time) and nothing ....then I see the little lever pulled out a little bit I pushed it in an wabahhhh it was back. I was so happy and discussed at the same time. I does not take much to make a 660 wake up from its fairly docile rider friendly stock form. Mine has a hot cam (stage one I would think but not shure) big gun headpipe, R4 silencer, air box mods with k&n filter, and a DynoJet kit and it flat out rips for those few mods.it will walk right away from a stock 660 with just a slip on. I also went -1 tooth front and +2 on back and a set of 18" on back (20" front), it dropped top speed to around 60ish from 80ish but it gained retarded acceleration and snappiness, hardest part is keeping front down when it hooks. Unless you desert or road ride you don't need an 80mph top end. You can shift as fast as you can blip the clutch bam bam bam, pretty wild for sport wheeler, these guys that say "my 450 will dust a raptor" are full of crap 450 MAY edge out a raptor in a drag race but it won't "dust" it. I've seen plenty of videos where there neck n neck and even after switching riders.... The raptors definitely have more Tq but they are 50lbs heavier and power curve is waaaay different. It's apples to oranges 2 very different machines for 2 different purposes but both are fast and both have there pros and cons. I will say Off the show room floor a 450 is definitely faster.
These vids are old as shit but I gotta say, I just picked up two of these 660’s for Pennie’s.. One doesn’t run and the other tan like crap. Needles to say, I have learned a ton of knowledge on these things from bing watching like 10 of your videos lately.. Def subscribed to the channel just cuz. So thanks man! Keep it up!
A trick to start anything without the carbs is just spraying starting fluid in the entrance to where the carbs would be just dont to a ton because it will want to rev up extremely high
Awww man you’re lucky for having so many dirt bikes and 4 wheelers I’ve wanted one my neighbors have one and they look like they have fun riding them but love from South Carolina 💙
That's a 2001 1-way bearing assembly if you to replace the 1-way assembly go with the 02 03 assembly i believe 04 05 1-way assembly bearing and flywheel are different
Absolutely love videos like this any kind of quad or mx bike that's up for spares or repair here in the UK goes for stupid money and there's not many about at that thanks for the videos 👍
my raptor did the exact same thing when i first bought it... wouldn't start off a jump from a truck but stuck a new battery in it and it started right up lol
I think you should build yourself a bench instead of working on a piece of cardboard on the floor, or go too a school auction and find yourself a heavy duty teacher's desk. They work really great
I just put a big bore on my raptor 660 and the timing chain dont want to go over the camshaft.the chain is half way on it u dont think tht its stock and thts wht its not letting it go over it
Dont give it that mutch gas when starting. Most 4 stroke carbs have a jet that squirts fuel into your intake. So everytime the throttle opens fuel shoots into the intake, this way you could easily flood your bike. Just a tip for next time.
Hey man, awesome video. Weird question, is this your full time job and do you make enough to support yourself with just UA-cam and flipping bikes and quads?
Should never, ever put any new engine part in the chuck of a drill, especially a new valve. The slightest burr on the stem could damage the valve guide when you install it. Glad to see all these old bikes revived though!
I also am a 2t fan... they are getting hard to find for cheap these days. Thinking about starting my channel up soon with a KX85 i just bought. Needs a whole rebuild and going +4mm crank and .50 over piston.
Awesome vid Brother thank you. What model jumper pack do you use, mine works once on a car and a couple on my OHVs and bikes before dead. If yours is better, please share name or link lol Thank you either way my Friend. Be safe :)
That mark inside the crank case is probably where the chain nearly came off the cog and got all the stretch, but mad that the valve didnt crunch the piston crown.....or did it?. The problems with bike shops is they never want to do the short fix it would have been all the valves need changing or re seating , all new springs and seals, probably would have put a whole new top end in also (just to be safe ) and the bill would have been about $2500 minimum.
Nice work bro.. wish you live closer to me so you could come to my place an rip it... I will be uploading a vid of my 2005 660 and my 2016 yz450f.. an yeah told you the 660s are easy to work on..
I have a 2001 Yamaha raptor 660 if timing an valve clearance is good. Wondering why my raptor has a hard crank. piston sounds good with no spark plug inn. Engine get hard to turn over with spark plug inn any idea what’s wrong with it?
At this point i would trust you to rebuild my engine!! Just some advise when you have a bolt that's snapping as you're torquing you should loosen it back up and lube it because it's not the correct torque when that happens!! Great job though!!
Wait so you've watched more than 1 of his videos and you'd let him rebuild your engine LMAO. Take kid the works off cardboard on the ground that thinks clapped out bikes are running mint? The kid that can't tell the bike or quad isn't hitting the power band but says it's running perfect lmao. The kid that neutral drops steady and it always trying to shift into 7th gear lmao. You sir are a bigger fool than him
@@bigcaputo09 true but you also learn by taking the advice people who know much more than him give him. He doesn't and that's why over 2 years he hasn't improved in the slightest. Anyways you have a good day brother and hopefully Joe starts listening to constructive criticism soon
@@shaynedonnelly374 he doesn't know jack shit about a good running bike. I vouch for every thing you mentioned above, this guy doesn't take advice, he thinks he knows it all and doesn't. Lol nearly all his two stroke videos he says "this thing rips" or "okay its perfect now".. After he throws low end inferior junk parts at it... And I haven't seen one video of a decent running bike that he's got to run, they all take forever to start, have issues still, and he's scared or a power band, never felt a properly tuned bike. Lol his neighbor let him "tune" his kx65 and it blew up the next ride out.... Blew it up from messing with jets (too lean) or from improper torque creating a massive air leak.
@@coloradodirtbike5930 finally someone that gets it lmao he has all these clueless followers that don't know any better than him and think he's the best mechanic on UA-cam. I must admit though I can't stop watching cause it just like a car crash you have to look lol.
Does anybody else here weird background noise I've only been hearing it for a while you might need to change your camera you are using but other than that the video is great
Why in the world would u not put new rings on while u have it apart that’s crazy bro now whoever buys it will have to tear it back down in no time to replace them..
Hey man, I’ve got a Kawasaki bayou 300 and it will start and run but once it gets warm it just wants to quit as soon as I give it throttle, I’ve checked the valves and timing, it has a new carb, and it has compression, do you have any idea on what that is?

Good job! Sounds good. Fresh oil & filter change much needed .
Yes!

Someone is quite the artist with stick figures on those radiator fins. 🥴😉

Very nice I knew you were gonna have it running in no time, I could just tell!
Awww man you’re lucky for having so many dirt bikes and 4 wheelers I’ve wanted one my neighbors have one and they look like they have fun riding them but love from South Carolina 💙
Great video, love it when a plan comes together. What would cause the cam chain to stretch like that?
It was just a old chain after a while they will just stretch
Im surprised you didn't check the ring gap before assembly.
A harmonic balancer puller for automotive use would pop that flywheel right off with the 3 bolt mount pattern.
Love your vids bro. Keep it up👍
You deserve a lot of subscribers and a lot of views ... keep up the work ... eagerly waiting for another cool one... 😎 Cheers ...
You should just sit the tank back on rather than messing about with easy start all the time , good job on getting it running 👍🤙

Use a wire hanger on the frame to hold the timing chain it will save some heartache

What do you like working on more? Quads or dirtbikes
Idk depends on the day! Dirtbikes are easier to work on i think
Great repair! What brand chain did you get?
Looks like a kid made a stickman drawing with the radiator fins.Lol...
I know it doesn't matter now but I think you missed the slight kiss the piston made with the value. You can see it in the first video.

You are quad saver ✌️
If you buy all that parts, are they specific for that model and make of the quad or is it mostly 'universal'?
