If you work on a 454, 400, or 500 and it needs shocks, the front Fox shocks and springs off a 1998 ZR snowmobile will bolt right up. It is amazing how much it improves the handling.
Lol I’m gonna have to try that if I get ahold of one
@@kountryquads9475 I was a test rider at Cat when these were made. As soon as I found out they fit I put them on 2 of my 500 4x4's. You could slide them into a corner and they had very little body roll and were even fun to get air with. As soon as I can find another one this will be the first thing I do to it.
Dude stick a magnet on the back of your compression tester so u can just stick that bad boy where ever u want. U use it so much, it would make it way easier to position it for the camera.
Also your a beast. Love the videos man. Cheers dude.
"where ever u want" - engines are aluminium and fairings plastic, magnet will help in some cases
@@vampirwrr aw ye righto cobber. Thats a go getter attitude there.
@@vampirwrr but the frame… is not 👍🏼
Thank you for continuing to provide such great content. I have brought back to life a side-by-side and a quad for one of our hunting properties for my two teenage daughters. I went through a very similar process to get them up and running and we get a ton of enjoyment out of them.
Keep up the great work and congratulations on your growing subscriptions
All the best
Same with me. My kids and me and their mom has fun on them
@@richardwalker1168 should I check the part in the engine with the megnet?
Those Arctic Cats are "weird" looking to me in that they have an empty space where I would think the engine would be. The engine is set really far back. Thanks for the video!
@@ihatelols I have 2 of them. They aren’t that bad on hills. But they aren’t that great of quads in my opinion
@@ihatelols that’s how I feel. I’m selling one of mine to get something different. I’m just torn on what to get next
Positive should always be hooked up first and removed first to keep the positive from sparking. Ground is ok to support a surge but positive is not. Awesome vid my friend, be safe :)
I like how you take on anything and get them ripping, Good work can't wait to see the next project👍🏼👍🏼
Love your “Captain Morgan” pose after you got the bike running 😂well done, really enjoy your channel. South Africa
Get you some torch tip cleaners, worth their weight in gold for jets...
Quarter of a million subs congrats! Keep doin what you do.. we love your videos, style and your consistency. Thank you!
Very cool Joe. Beautiful country there. Sounds like the Oshkosh Airventure Arrivals were really busy!🛩🛫🛬
Always good to watch old vids! Ur a hard worker bro
Great job figuring out the electricals !
That thing would be beautiful for ice fishing out on the frozen lakes, the racks on the front & back would be great for bringing gear out to the fishing spot you like, no matter how far out on the lake it is.
My brother & I need to invest in one of those things.
Its only 2wd even with chains they suck if you wanna go into semi deep snow
What I do go to the fabric store and buy vinyl and recover seats with it and you can get different colors and patterns been doing it on atvs and dirt bikes for over 20 years now
I got the same one for 400 cash 300 4x4 artic cat just needed a carb from Amazon and got her running great 4 Wheeler, great video Blessings 🙏 📸📸📸
I have a little 250 2003 arctic cat, watching your videos made me want to fix it up and running right, and it took me about 4 hours of labor including fixing a crack in the bottom of the case right under the axles, and for that I thank you, now I have a hobby I love. Could even turn into a job. KEEP UP THE AWESOME VIDS!!!!
Those things look funny with the big empty space where you would see the engine in most quads
at first i was looking where is the engine lol
lol i have one except a little newer and 250 people always ask where my engine is on the thing
Fugly
Ya, that 5 gallon amazon special gas can sux lol, i got one too and the dang button is worthless lol
I remember seeing this I believe on Instagram. But as of 2 weeks ago, I picked up an 01 4x4 500 and it's super clean. Had to adjust the float, now just to fix the higher end popping.
You always get them to run good job
Hey Joe cool video,,,,keep them coming and by the way I just to say thank you for your hard work and to share your passion,,,,thanks again 👍
Cool video. I have a '98 400 2x4. Looks just like yours. I bought it new. Had to put a new carb. on it a couple yrs. ago. Just changed the oil and am putting a new petcock and fuel lines + time for a new battery. It's been a great machine. Got new tires on it and a while back I replaced all the rubber bushings in the shocks. What a diff. that made too.
I had to subscribe to this channel, I have learned so much from these videos 💯👍👍👍
Every time I see an air box full of shit, I turn my volume down because I know the shop vac will be making an appearance lol
Hahaha
Just make sure the shop vac is exhausting outdoors or at a great distance from anybody you do not want to catch any rodent carried diseases also disinfect and change the filter of the shop vac when done
Another grait vid Joe.. you transferred that beast .. Good job sir 👏
Hey Joe nice vid you can fix anything and don’t take this the wrong way your wife is beautiful lucky man❤️❤️❤️
I am a big believer in Marvel Mystery Oil. I use this in my gas so the more I ride the better it runs because the oil really cleans the internal workings of the carb which in some cases won’t have to pull the carb.
Awesome as always Joe love watching your videos I do agree the fuel filter is definitely not letting enough fuel through great job on the repairs the battery mishap things like this can happen great you were able to get it functioning again to get home have a nice week mate great content for motorbike enthusiasts
"Pretty rough"... understatement of the century... lol.. speaking of pretty rough... dude.. that trailer.. lol.. you've heard it before, I know but go get yourself a better trailer.. you'll thank yourself later.. promise.. you'll say to yourself.. "I should've done this sooner.".. lol.. side note.. I can't wait for you to be able to work from your own NEW shop and house on that property.. it's going to be epic to say the least.. now.. NEWER trailer, for Pete's sake.. geez.. lol.. CHEERS!!!
LoL man, your absolutely right. I say his trailer looks like something from Old MacDonald's Farm 😅
These people that ya'll buy from are their own worst enemy. Screwing up the wiring this bad takes a knack. Thank God there is someone like you to straighten it back out. When ya'll get a new one you never know what you've got till it produces symptoms and on this one it had nuts in the exhaust till they finally blew out releasing the engine to finally run right. Ya'll thought the brakes were on for a while it was dragging so bad. That rear brake may still be dragging but ol Joe will get it sussed out.
Mine backfired and sounded crappy like that until I adjusted the valves. This is one of the easier models to check valves on.
U should put a magnet on ur compression tester👍
When I see this video or some other videos I was like where is the motor 😂
Good work joe not bad quad the wiring was a mess mate knew you would figure it out in the end take care mate 🔧🔧🔧👍👌
Good to see some Arctic Cat content.
Joe, it looks like the seat cover was hit by the heat from whatever happened to the wiring.
Sweet love your content brotha! Surprised your dad doesn’t get mad at you putting marks in his lawn like that. your good at what you do man. Keep it up bud!
If you can find one, a king quad 300 would be an awesome machine. Sorta similar to the Arctic cats
good work but it's idling a bit high it jumped pretty hard when u put it in gear love Ur videos....
Need to open 2Vintage antique offroad store
I one bought a caddy garage parked for a few years
Since you ride through the woods and fields of tall grass and other growth, you might find releasing nematodes (to kill ticks and other pests) very helpful. When I moved into my current house, I had to spray, our yard and the woods behind us, poison to kill 'em off. That was a lot of work. My son found nematodes online and released them twice, at different times during the same year and we haven't seen a single tick since and that was 4 years ago. There are different types of nematodes, so you'll have to choose the correct ones. I have the link to the site that my son purchased them, but I can't post it here. Easy enough to find with a quick Google search though.
Good job bring her back! Just need to adjust those valves and check exhaust.
So funny, man like I always comment, working on the same machines all the time bud, this video is my bread and butter tho, just love these Suzuki LT250F (w= 4×4) my factorie 4x4 quads with the three ranges and lockup, never had the arctic cat version, I see a few differences but lot more similarly, was wondering why I never seen one on your Channel cuz they are cheap and plentiful here in norcal
The condenser will hold a charge for the points to discharge .
What ever was in the air box looks like I lived the winter out good lol
That carb needs some sonic cleaning.
Reviving the dead and forgotten is honorable this one turned out better then I thought like usual
cheers everyone
It is amazing how much damage mice can do. Great job as always
Yes. Worse crankshaft decay I ever saw was a 275cc twin snowmobile engine that mice had lived for an age. You would have thought it was two hundred years old.
Luv the vlog Joe,look forward to cing how u gonna tackle it,gl!🤔👁👀👁👍👍👍
Check the intake manifold boot . I had a 4 cylinder bike with that issue , They usually crack at the bottom so it is easily missed. .
You could always order one of them aftermarket seat cover like you did before, just order it in extra large this time lol.
Joe 30 min ago "video will probably be postponed till tommorow" 30 min later he uploads it.. always consistent lol
Yeah I had to use a Hotspot to upload it. Was taking forever, that's why I thought I wasn't going to be able to post it today.
@@2vintage hells yes 👍🏼 😂
Since its run, I'd check starter again, as it may have been hung up
Excellent work man
&I would say u should do the compression test first then try it with the oil bc if it’s low the go up it can show bad rings
Love all the videos you share. Really want to see progress on your land! How long do you think before your shop and tracks are done?
Keep up the good work though mate.
Are you sure the magneto is charging? When the battery fell out the engine should have kept running not just die like that. Also adjust the valves or check the chain tensioner.
I had a cable on my battery come loose and it fucked up alot of shit, and yea it ran for atleast 20 mins before noticing. Then a bump start got it going and it died completely after another 20 mins of riding back. I'm pretty sure it fried the stator
Ironically I got one of these a few months ago and when I fixed it I forgot to strap the battery down and I had the exact same thing happen to me on the trail
EXCELLENT job Joe. I'll take a 2 wheel drive any day over a 4. 4 wheel doesn't mean you won't get stuck lol
Job very well done, Sir.....
I have the same one but 4x4 version , can’t get used to the heal toe shifter. Any suggestions for oil leaking out the sight glass ? Besides replacing glass ? I put some sealer on but probably will be leaking one day .
Did you try the diff lock mod on your 4x4 version ? I did it has diff lock hidden gear just like the king quad
You should always hook up positive terminal first
Or is that one new enough it has the actual Arctic Cat motor in it.
i got seat material for my motorcycle at walmart. really flexable and easy to work with.
Mustard in the carb
These quads look mega weird as if they don't have an engine just a big space lol glad you got it going
Baby mice n feathers came out of the muffler
Did you put a inline filter like on a mower? On the fuel
Nice. You WD40'd the shit of of that spider in the switch unit lol
Quick question I've noticed you pre lube some of the cylinders on your projects up with a lil bottle with extended nozzle of 2 stroke oil so it's safe to use this on the 4 stroke engines from what I'm watching on your channel. Just wanted to verify not to pour in as the oil supply but to lube a lil through the spark plug hole?
Yes it is.
you can use any lube or oil like that..it is just a small amount to oil the rings cylinder walls as those are dry from sitting... you don't fill it up ...then when it starts up it burns off ( so smokes abit )... best to spin the piston a few times before spark plug goes back in...and then you can fire it up... 2 stroke oil is ok in a 4 stroke in this manner...use proper oil in the engine oil gearbox
I think it’s crazy how exactly the same the king quad 300 is to these, just different visual looks
"THAT'S A LOTTA NUTS!"
Captain Morgan pose for the vitory start .
Joe, how do you like your wires, fried or scrambled? : )
Funny you post about this bike, 2 just popped up on my marketplace for 400 for the pair
What did you use to clean up the plastic? It looks nice.
You bring em back to life don't ya!!!
Ignition, commonly 15 to 30 amps.
Where was the fuel leak coming from, and what did you do to fix it? Mine is leaking from the carb too
he said its leaking from the O ring on the bowl of the carb, yours could be something else though, so be aware.
Same thing happened on my big bear 350 two times
Good video
Those bikes have a low med and high shift. I believe under center of seat on right side.
The seat looks like it got hot
A guy brought one in last year like that he had a damn Predator engine in it. He built it but fried the little 212 motor. Good ol harbor freight.
put some wd 40 on the starter and soak that down it will probably start moving. I have greased starter shafts with water proof grease and got them sliding and engageing before, a lot of the time they just get rusty and grundged up and need cleaning. Wd 40 will clean and lithum grease will lub it perminetly.
love the vids , love you new property but may mis yha lol , pretty sure your mom an dads houes not to far from me , not to far from drag strip i beleave lol , you will know me or when you met me you'll see old guy on a 78 RM or a 1981 RM first year of water cool for rm 81 CR250 had water cool first , good old days still lov the 78 , befor i never stop blabing lol lov your vids makes me feel young again see yha rippin down the road , dam mis that power band kickin in an pullin it up across fresh turnded farm feilds ,as a old man I smile and look back
Those 4 wheelers always looks like there no motor
Safe to say that air box hasn't been covered long.
31:51 average arctic cat riding experience
why didnt they want to touch it? Did it have cooties? it must have a capacitor storing energy somewhere so when you touched that wire it discharged.. its always a treat seeing wild life on a nice ride.
2 vintage do you have any of those original airbox snorkels for these quads?
I don't think there's enough atv left to call rough lol.
I think I saw cracks in that intake boot.
Amazing, well done !
The intake boot issue can come and go .
Yep that's definitely a Suzuki King Quad 300 engine.
Sounds like the valves are chattering really bad
I was so close this time to getting first but not close enough love the vids and wanna see more things with your big piece of property.
I changed my username and my picture to my pet kitten
I checked coil sater,an cdi, all getting good reading on multi meter ,wat to check next
