    How did u connect the choke cable, I bought the atracypart carb.

    • @MichaelEd
      @MichaelEd  11 місяців тому

      It should screw into the same spot as before. Time stamp 6:23 on mine had a new screw connector, I removed the new one and just reused my original that was still connect to the end on my choke cable. Choke port for cable should be on the driver left side of the carb, just above where the thumb curb idle adjustment is located.
      ⚠️caution⚠️:
      That connector is plastic screwing into aluminum. You can easily damage those plastic threads when installing and tightening. Might wanna install by hand only. Just my advice.👍

    Thanks for the video. Did it hold up and keep working? I have a 660 that's leaking fuel. It needs cleaned so I thought about buying one of these as a backup.

    • @MichaelEd
      @MichaelEd  13 днів тому +1

      Yeah, Deerslayer369 still working just fine. I also had an issue with my fuel shut valve no working. I normally turn the fuel off and let the grizzly run until it dies, but my shut off valve never would close off completely. Now that that’s fixed and only use non ethanol fuel m, sticky float valve is no longer and carb problems are in the past. 👍

    • @Deerslayer369

      @MichaelEd I think my issue is using the 87oct/10% ethanol fuel. It leaks fuel from the drain bowl hose even when the gas is off.

    • @MichaelEd
      @MichaelEd  13 днів тому +1

      @@Deerslayer369 try running 93 or 91 if available in your area. If I can’t get non ethanol I’ll use 93, it’s seems to work better and doesn’t seem to turn bad as fast as lesser octane fuels.
      Your float might be sticking or needle seat. Mine did that because my shut if valve wasn’t working properly.

    Thanks for this video!! 9:14 At 9:14, what is the black hose to the right of the carb connecting to the engine via a clamp? It comes from the other side of the engine? My hose is disconnected, looks like fuel corroded the metal and it broke. Not sure what it does?

    • @MichaelEd
      @MichaelEd  11 місяців тому

      @9:14 in the video the cable on the right is the throttle cable. The hose coming from the bottom region is the curb idle screw adjustment the comes around to the other side of the carb.
      Did this help?

      @@Enjoytheinbetween yes Sir, 87 ethanol blend is straight garabage for these small engines with carbs. I run ethanol free as much as possible, if not 97 octane from the pump. No long term storage! Run your quad out of fuel when not in use has been the best way for me to help assure it’ll start up after it’s been stored or not used in months. Boats, lawnmowers, chainsaws, etc. Run’’‘em outta fuel if not use soon. 👍

    Do you know if that carb is adjustable? My original 2003 carb was replaced by an Amazon carb, doesn’t look like you can adjust the jets?

    • @MichaelEd
      @MichaelEd  10 місяців тому

      2003 jets are not adjustable, you have to change them out if needed. Altitude elevation and clutch springs usually dictate jet replacement.
      The only adjustments I know of on the carb is curb idle, throttle cable, and air/fuel.
      * that one is located on the bottom of the carb up in a hole. It’s should be a flathead style screw and it right past the float bowl and before the intake boot.
      Loosen your intake boot clamp on the carb side and also the clamp on the carb where the air box connects, you can turn you carb towards the side and maybe see the air/fuel adjustment screw. Be mindful the your choke cable, throttle cable and other hoses are still connected when and after doing this. I hope this helps out? 👍

    There have been customer's units that I had to put chinese aftermarket carbs on - due to either unavailable OEMs or the customer just wanted a cheaper route - and invariably, I would spend more time and effort replacing wrong sized jets or troubleshooting defective carburetors than if I"d just rebuilt the original OEM to begin with.

      The carb I purchased is no longer listed. I bought it about 2 years before this video.
      It was thirty-something dollars and I added an air filter that totaled out to be fifty-something dollars.
      I was looking at what is offered now and it looks like they include the air filter, fuel filter and even a new spark plug for about what I paid for but not with the extras like what offered.
      I know mine is not the Niche brand, but I think “in my own personal opinion” as long as it matches your carb you should be fine.
      I don’t know your grizzly spec, model, year.
      Mine is just the base 660 YFM660FR and the carb part number for mine is: 5KM-14901-10-00
      You can cross reference with Yamaha and Partzilla to help make sure your getting the right carb when purchasing from Amazon or eBay.
      I am truly sorry that my purchase is no longer available to share.
      I hope my response is helpful.

    I have used those carbs in my 2000 Grizzly 600 3 times. They last one year then crap out and have to replace. Maybe it's because I use ethanol fuel. Good video but I can add one thing. Much easier if you remove fuel tank. Easier to get at everything. I only know that from doing it often. Not being cheeky

      Best practice I’ve found is shut off fuel and run it the carb outta gas.
      If you can get non ethanol fuel I would definitely do that. Ethanol blended fuel is garbage for anything other than daily driving vehicles.
