Anytime someone says carb clean, I assume they tried everything and it doesn't run 😅
Ran when parked..........
Ask them if it will fire off when you spray ether in it or put a gas soaked rag over the intake. Watch em stamur and smoke come outa their ears.
Yeah, something simple, right.
Well, he wasn't lying. The carb did need cleaned....
The amount of bikes I have bought that just needed a carby clean and have taken days to fix
Funny that the seller said he knows nothing about it...but then said all it needs is a carb clean.
it ran until i put it away 🤣
but he was right
@@elkku2934But the starter turned the wrong way. Starter + carburetor
Seller also said he never did anything with it. I suspect the guy the seller got it from said it just needed a carb clean then the seller tried hooking a battery to it n wires started smoking so he stopped n never did anything else with it
yeah that would make me lowball the hell out of it too
Lol at 35:15 - The mouse nest getting blown out of the exhaust. 😂
I bought a 400ex one time and when i tried to crank it a snake came flying out of the exhaust.
There went the silencer 😆
ik just saw that 😂😂😂😂😂
So, you don't give your viewers the opportunity to inspect the carburetor after it's been freshened up. But, you do grant us the pleasure of feasting our eyes on the grandeur which is, witnessing lubricant escaping into the engine.😂 Was anyone else interested in observing the transformation of the carb, or is it just me?
I do envy your electrical prowess however.👍🏼
I had that same DG pipe on my old warrior and friends hated riding behind me , always told em try and get around me then lol
Well done mate. This is one where I said to myself "no way that thing is gonna run". You proved me wrong.
I resurrected an 02 Kawasaki Prairie butchered when I got it and not running. Knowing nothing about them but watching your videos allowed me to get it running strong and having fun with my first ATV.Thanks so much,will be watching future videos. 😊
I am quite impressed you determined the starter was rotating in the wrong direction.
When I was growing up my stepdad had 2 warriors along the path of life. To me they were the best of both worlds. They had good power and could get out of their own way. it was good for hunting or just having fun. In fact we always took the warrior hunting along with the Moto4 or my yellow tri moto 225 like you had on here a few weeks ago....Yamaha made some great machines and we always were buying used stuff and it seemed they never let us down. The hondas were good too but expensive when they did break
The wolverine was a great 4 wheeler as well
Its amazing how you can identify different problems so logically, great job. I learned a lot from you, thanks.
That’s a sharp looking machine. Maybe I’m old but that’s a killer look
It reminds me of the banshee
Hammering your starter is a great way to break the magnets😮
I can confirm.
@@TheRealCannonCooper😂😂😂😂😂
Considering you messed with two of these earlier in your early days and both where worn out. I’m glad you got to fix and ride one that still has life left!
As the owner of a 2000 Warrior I understand the problems these machines have. I ended up buying mine in 2019 for $1,000. Unknowingly, the last owner ended up dropping the valve lock nut in the head, which he replaced with a new one, and it locked up the camshaft on us. Ended up with a crappy Niche head. Then I went into the bottom end and found the piston and rings were worn so a new standard Wiseco piston was installed. Ended up messing up the case treads so new cases were ordered also. Since then, awesome machine! I’m in it for too much unfortunately.
I understand but at least you have a machine that you know what’s in it. Still cheaper than buying a new sport quad although I’d love to have one. But I don’t want to spend 12k for one
What a catch on that starter rotation. I’m not sure many would have caught it that fast.
prob wouldve been a wiser idea to just buy a new starter they aint expensive
Yeah 100% I don’t think I would’ve caught that
He wired up one on another bike the wrong way and it was doing the same as this one so it probably was a bit of dejavu
Great job diagnosing the starter!
Our family started out with an 89 warrior and loved it so much that we got two more. We still have the 89 with original engine and still sounds great. I'm actively rebuilding my 02 warrior completely and can't wait for the results. Thanks for sharing your experience. Take care
They run forever great quads
The amount of knowledge you have is truly impressive. I’m jealous 🤣
The variety of things you tackle are amazing. Subs way up, keep it up
The seller 100percent knows alot more than he's saying because as he said he knows nothing about it but he also said that all it needs is a carb clean i can feel his nose growing all the way over here in the UK anyway apart from all that whatever the problem I'm absolutely sure that you will sort it out 👍🏼
Warriors are some of the most rock solid Atv’s ever made. That 350 motor is absolutely bulletproof. What you found was a severely neglected machine.
Sadlyb
Well technically he didn't lie, it did need a carb clean! Good skills you have.
Nice catch on the starter! I'd bet that 99% of shops would have sold the customer a new starter. When it's a simple fix
The starter problem happened to me one time on my old warrior and somehow i had reversed the polarity of it and it spun backwards, messed with wiring and got it fixed but glad to see you found your problem.
I bought an 87 warrior on 2000 for 2500 it was a beast for the time ! A real wheely machine and great in the Kentucky trails … I’d say the spare parts and motor are the parts that came off your atv.. not the other way around
you done well to figure out that starter motor , I think that would have had me stumped
You have the coolest channel! It’s inspired me to buy dirt bikes with issues and fix them. So fart I’ve been 100% on diagnosing them. I just run through the same procedures you talk about. Pretty cool. Thanks for all the good content.
I had one of these growing up. I think it was 2001. Was a lot of fun. I bet the pipe helped a lot to get some better speed out of it. I remembered when I replaced mine there was a spot in the stock exhaust it pinches off pretty bad to get around a bar. Was really great after that.
I’ve really been enjoying your videos! I found your channel a few days ago and have been binge-watching ever since. They’re not just educational but also really relaxing.
ABSOLUTELY the BEST on UA-cam at diagnosing mechanical issues hands down!! Ive turned wrenches 30+ yrs on all my own stuff and have seen some great mechanics but dont know of to many guys that couldve figured out that starter issue in the amount of time it took you to do it, pretty damn impressive Joe!! Your knowledge on how things work when it comes to parts outside the engine alone really just keeps surprising me. Love your videos and love how you show the little details on these fixes for all us viewers to keep learning from so thanks for what you do my man!!!
He never shows any reassembly. Do you really believe that he has collected all that junk since the last video. Joe is just amazing, that is if you are totally gullible!!!!!
I picked up one with “needs radiator, carb cleaned, some electrical work, a choke cable, and a throttle cable.” Now I’m $1,000+ in repairs. Including tires, a whole new carb because there was a wasp nest inside it clogging the pathways and welding the throttle butterfly shut, a fuel petcock, starter, starter relay, battery, brakes, head gasket, etc. and now a new camshaft.
Great job on that starter. Most of the people who work on these things would have just thrown it away and bought a new one. (or in your case took the one off the parts machine)
Rotella T4 is wet clutch rated (jaso ma/ma2). It's much cheaper to use vs oil that is marketed as "Motorcycle" oil. I use it in every ATV and motorcycle I own.
1500-$1800 all day long, she needs a little TLC but that was an easy double all day long!! Nice job Joe! I was 💯 percent sure something would come out the exhaust after seeing what was in the Air box! Good call on the starter running backwards, soon as you said that , I was Ding!! "💡".
This is one of those, u can tell right away a kid tried to fix, not knowing anything. You were lucky it wasn't anything major and turns into a good score with easily being able to flip with a good profit margin. Nice score.
Thank you for such a good channel I get so much out of. Also I appreciate your consistent patience. A good quality for us all in these times.
hell of a channel dude. i do wish you'd show some of the stuff you cut out sometime though. like cleaning the carb on this one woulda been really satisfying to watch.
That thing had a hard life before you found it. You are probably the first real mechanic to touch it by the looks of it.
Another great video joe, nice job staying with it. You are a great inspiration and confidence builder for all of your subscribers
Okay I see I'm not the only one
... I bought 2 quads. He said needed new coil...... I literally just post a video of the problems. Ur videos are helping me learn
I had two of these, an 01 and an 03 years back. The wife and I would go trekking all over, the secret to these bikes is to swap the front sprocket from the stock 13 tooth to a 15 tooth. Cruising speed of 55+mph and I wouldn't doubt 70+ mph pinned. Pre 2000 models only had a 5 speed gearbox where in 2000 they upgraded to a 6 speed...great bikes!
Been waiting for you to do a warrior thanks Joe!!
Hey man, I’m new to your channel. I would like to say; Im a mechanic, but on larger engines. For sure when I’m a diesel mechanic. You have inspired a lot as I have been buying and trying to flip….. I really appreciate your videos…..
usually when you buy things like this they say it needs a carb clean and it does but it also needs like an entire new crank case and top end costing you more than a brand new one
that sound when it starts up 😫 love warriors
Good job on that starter issue. Never would have thought of that
Great job! Always a learning moment. Keep up the hard work
❤❤❤❤❤🙏🏽🙏🏽🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙏🏽🙏🏽🙌🏾I love this channel. This guy can make anything work. If it’s fully unmolested he will get it run. Pure talent
The Warrior is the mid for power speed everything 😅but it is the definition of reliability... they run beat to hell no matter what and easy to work on
Loved my 98'. Estart, reverse, clutch and faaaaaast. Wish I still had it!
Btw, the engine case above the sprocket has JB Weld on it 😮
Wow nice work getting her running again. Looked awesome 😎 and sounds soo good 👍
Love the videos joe. Im glad you got this one figured out:) you’ve inspired me and others im sure
I have spent many hours watching you restore old vehicles and have always wondered what became of them. Please will you make a video of what happened to the vehicles once you have got them back up and running. It could even be as an aside whilst repairing your latest toy… er… repair job. "This one reminds me of the Honda I fixed that was sold to a guy… blah, blah, blah".
I had a warrior that was the same color,it wasn't bad until the crank went out when I was pinned in top gear
Thanks ! Definitely learning all the time ! That reverted cylinder in the starter, wouldn't have thought about this. ! Great video again ! Thanks a lot !
I am a warrior guy I have 2 so any video I come across with one I watch and this one seems to be running pretty good after you’ve gone thru it warriors are notorious for electrical issues but can be beaten to all hell and will still come back for more nice find
Wish I was mechanical like this guy. I would never buy brand new ATV’s again. This guy has skills
Hey bro! Purely for eye strain, when you do your ride, please angle rhe helmet camera up 10 to 15 degrees. It's hard to ride looking over the front tire! Nice job getting it running in 4 hours, Winner! Love watching you work man. Keep it coming!!
It’s good fun to hear the nonsense said to a mechanic to sell him a non running motorized vehicle! People this fellow has heard it ALL! Just stick with “It’s not working right now and I am not sure what the issue is but that’s why it’s for sale” this is a much more honest and reasonable explanation! Enjoy!
It did need a carb clean LOL amongst a few other things like the starter needed flipped. And the mouse house needed cleaned out. Needed new battery. Not bad really. cool head lights Needs new hand grips.
I’m half expecting Vinnie to come running behind you!! Good vid bud
Another Amazing fix Joe, you always impress me with your finds and easy fixes, plus your knowledge of how things work, really enjoy watching you work and your commentary.
Though it has a 12v system in actuality a healthy voltage reading should always be at 13.5v. this is rule of thumb for any 12v system.
That pile of parts tells a different story than the previous owner said. "Might need the ultrasonic cleaner for this one". Ya think?
I have a 05 350 raptor, they are indestructible, not a power house but reliable as hell. It is on its 3rd set of tire, 4th rear axel bearings, and untold rear brake pads, but never been in the motor. My kids rode it every weekend for years. All you really have to do to them is change to oil ounce a year, parts are easy to get, the were the same for 10 plus years.
Joe, you gotta bring Vinny along to check these quads before you buy them😅😊
Those Warriors are awesome machines. I sold mine a few months back cause I couldn't stand the riding position.
Same I hate it. My buddy’s warrior was way nice than my 400ex but the 400ex riding position was 10x better
Good catch on that starter. I would have missed it and just bought a new one.
I love your videos but please fix the chuck on your impact driver! 😊
Awesome job! The warriors were fun sport trail quads back in the day.
I was exited when he took it our for a ride as if i bought and fixed it i luv these type vids keep teaching me how to fix stuff 😂😂💯
I commented on this one a while back. I just got a 94 for $775 that runs and drives. It’s awesome!
That thing looks exactly like MY 02 Warrior! Except yours is WAY louder. One thing, the throttle response sounds a little less "crisp" than mine. Might be the spring in the accelerator pump bore may be weak, and not pushing it back up enough to get full stroke out of it. Your Accel Pump still has the rubber bellows on it.... hold onto that, they are unobtanium any more, but there is an alternative I found. Since it looked like I was watching you work on mine, I was way into this video. I'd love to see an addendum on your carb cleaning experience. That float will come out, but it takes a bit of uncomfortable force. I did a whole series of vids on my Warrior, to figure out where and how it was bent, fixing it, and rear brake repairs. It's LONG, but I had no editing skills back when I did it.
😊 I learn from you. I’d never try what you do. 😂 I did look at used on Facebook they think junk is worth 2 to 3 times what you pay. 😊😊😂
Joe, that one way bearing... Is called a Sprag. They are common in automatic transmissions.
I bought a 2003 warrior pretty my the same condition for $800. Had to do the valve seals and rethread the crank nut. The same place yours is welded. My first time working on an atv and she runs great. I should have done videos on it. I have extra parts too.
Mustie 1 is the best, he shows everything from start to finish, no tricks, no edits, just plain good mechanics, no tricks all honest.
Mustie is anoying every second. Ha ha ha and he doesn't seem to know as much as this guy I fix everything so I know good luck with your conclusion 😢
"Just a couple of hits with the hammer"- Anyone who's worked on a pre-80's shovel head will identify! Nice job!
Good video joe and defo good buy all considering the problems it had sounds good and runs well ,another win mate take care 👍👌🔧🔧🔧❤️🐾🦴🦴
When you are testing starters hook the positive up first then. Use the ground to turn it over so you don't mess up the threads on the positive bolt.
If you'd pour oil from the quart the right way it wouldn't glug and sputter. The pour spout goes on the top not the bottom. It's designed that way so it can breathe and not glug.
Love watching you work on bikes from western Washington have a great day
Definitely looks like a good deal for $750 and it looks like the seller was being fairly honest with you because surely he would’ve noticed that huge mouse nest in the air box if he had looked into the quad at all. Where I live in Va people have warriors nowhere near as clean as this one and they are selling them for 2k to $2500 everyday it seems.
33:36 tip. dont pour oil with the spout down, flip the bottle so the spout is up and it can vent air. It wont "Chug" like that anymore. less of a change to spill because the oil "Chugs"
We have a procedure for bikes that have been sitting for a while and customers want us to get running. First thing is check air box to make sure there is no rat or mice nest that can be sucked through a valve and possibly bend it
Thanks for the great video, I learned something about starters and how to reverse the direction. Thanks for sharing this 😊
I had a 350 wolverine 2000 model that ran great and then it didn’t and I took it to three different shops, and none of them could ever fix it. It ran, but would never wind out.
You practically got 2 blue atv just need another frame and few other odds and ends wow this big haul guy well done.
Now, what would we learn on a simple carb clean? :D Great video!
35:15 cleaned out the mouse house in the pipe. 🤣🤣
love ur videos they taught me alot ❤️
And that is why you are one of the best brother 😊
I used have one of those. So much fun. But boy does it look like someone had too much fun with that one. But that starter problems have plagued many of them. I was waiting to see if it was the same issue I’ve repaired on 3 before but to my surprise nope. Just a broken magnet 🧲 and reversed field. For the ones I’ve seen it’s always been a wiring issue.
I love those Warriors. I've wanted one since I was in my teens.
Good job, Joe. That carb looks like someone ran E85 in that thing.
Carb clean my arse!!!! Dude, since watching your channel, I've come to realize that there are just SO MANY liars and rip off artists around. It gives me a heavy heart dude but keep up the great videos.
Good job got stuck straight into it figured it all out
Dude! Nice video! I learned something with your starter motor rebuild. Thanks. Wish we were neighbors!
I love watching teardown videos like these because they're great for learning mechanics. I'd have never of thought to check the starter magnets. How do you go about retorquing bolts though? Do you do it by feel, use a torque wrench or just give it a few ugga duggas? If you do use a torque wrench where do you find the specs?
Some user's manuals and/or service manuals have broad guidelines for almost every single bolt sizes torque specs, also if you've torqued many different sized bolts you'll find that similar sizes usually take similar torque values. It's usually only when it's torqueing different material/grade bolts into different thread/housing materials ie steel bolts in aluminum vs magnesium etc that the torque values will change.
