    Also the lever on the side of the carb is the fuel pump when it's cold and the auto choke doesn't work you can pump it a few times and it will start right up.

    If that much stuff blew out of the CVT breather, the cover should be pulled to investigate. Lord knows what else is inside of there, especially with mice having been in there. Being a belt driven machine with unknown miles/hours, that's one of the first things I would check anyway, just to be sure the primary clutch rollers aren't flat spotted, the belt is in good condition, excessive belt dust, etc. All the normal things you would check on a CVT machine. Also, that Warn winch should have a free spool handle on the cable side of it, so you don't need to use the rocker switch when pulling line out. Makes winching much quicker, and saves your battery.

    Hey Joe... I just wanted to mention your tape job on the the air box snorkel tube to richen the air / fuel mixture. If you would adjust your mixture screw correctly on the bottom of the bowl of the carb you wouldn't need that hack to make it run correctly. Keep up the videos that we all enjoy...

    • @2vintage
      @2vintage  Рік тому +6

      It's about the pressure in the air box not the fuel mixture. I tried adjusting it and it did the same thing. I'm guessing the air filter wasn't restricted enough for the carb.

  • @j33pfyn4tik6
    @j33pfyn4tik6 Рік тому +3

    Good buy! Might I suggest, on the side of your winch, should be a switch, switch it to free spool to unspool winch line. Also, it is hard on your winch to hook it up to an object, the pull the object out with atv. Let the winch do the work. Also, throw something on top of the winch line (like a sweatshirt), in case of line breakage. It will keep it from coming back and causing injury.

    Something I wish I knew about these bikes is under the skid plate there is a small "oil pan" that the drain plug screws into that you can remove with four small bolts and allows access to the pickup screen that in our case got clogged with gasket material after a dealership shop changed the one way bearing. I unfortunately did not discover said oil pan until after we lost the bottom end and of course there are no parts available for the bottom end on this bike so remember if you have to go inside one of these motors take a little extra time and clean the screen.

    Lucky find with this one. One small thing tonpoint out, not sure how important it is, but you never hold the reverse override button when you back up. On the scrambler I used to ride it would load up and start popping and spitting if you reversed to long with holding that button in

    i have one like this from 2003, its a higher trim level but lower at the same time. It was from the time when e reverse was around, but it has manual rev, but it does have speedo and odo, but you are right. These are super simple machines that are easy to work on and are super reliable. And they get really good mileage too.

    Choking off air isn’t a fix, it’s a trick to get back home. Cv carburetors are pains, I have ran across similar problems and found that the vacuum diaphragm on the slide gets stiffer over time and the engine does not produce enough vacuum to compensate, or the slide doesn’t slide as easily as it should. Problem is those diaphragm can be hard to get sometimes

    Sweet quad! Man, you guys are getting slammed on gas there, but oil there is way cheaper than here. Gas yesterday here, $2.99 a gal, but a quart of Amsoil is now about $25.00. With a Wicks filter, an oil change for the little Miata my son and I are reconstructing is $120.00. Unfortunately around here, there are only a very few who carry it, so they can charge whatever they want to. IS that a plastic cover over the frame of that plow?? Must be for snow only if so, but we don't get any of that down here much. We just get tornadoes.
