    Grateful for this. I have the new one in hand ready to install.
    You might want to mention that when the Suzuki petcock fails you end up with fuel in the crankcase and an oil & filter change is necessary. I had 1/2 gallon pour out when I removed the oil dipstick.

      That's a good point. This one wasn't like that because it actually stopped flowing fuel period. It was so rusted and clogged there was no fixing it. Glad it helped!

    With the OEM Petcock, for winter storage, the easy way is to turn the switch to OFF , start the engine until the engine quits. Start again to make sure the engine cannot fire anymore. This will purge all the fuel out of the carburetor . The PRIM on the OEM version is for a Cold engine start, it's designed to prime the engine with fuel.

    Thanks for the video. Great explaination and very helpful.
    I've ordered a cheap one for only $13 on Amazon and mounted it on a Suzuki QuadMaster 500, year 2001.
    But I had to fit it backward and use a longer hose. Meaning the petcock's front is not visible, though it still accessible with finger.
    I needed to installed it backward because the gas line that starts from the bottom of the carburetor and needs to be fit on the new petcock output, was oriented towards the left side. So, I would had to twist to hose to bring to the right side of the petcock, which would had cause the hose to fold and blocked. Also, the muffler is very close and bringing the hose on the right side would probably cause burning/metling issues.
    I blocked the hose used for the primer line of the original petcock (the hose that goes to the top of the carburator and oriented right side) with a simple bolt and tie wrap.

    I had mine in the shop for the last time a couple years ago. They had either not payed attention or left the throttle cable so tight that it was holding the butterfly open and rendering the idle adjustment screw useless. Then last year the pilot screw litterally fell out of the carb. I'm doing my own stuff now. (2003 Vinson 500 and 2000 KingQuad 300)

    • @BakersDIYLifestyle

      The carburetor wasn't drained before I started so it wasn't empty when I tried to fire it. Also, if you watched till the end I said the carb had to be replaced anyway because it was as corroded as the petcock was. No fuel was going to make it through anyway.

      Normally it would, but this one was so clogged up nothing would come out. The second issue is since there is no actual off, you can't drain the carb for winter storage or anything without completely draining the tank which can be a hassle in itself.

The tank only has a little fuel in it (fresh). If I put the dial of the petcock on "Pri"/primany fuel is released and that's how I emptied the old fuel. Was yours not doing that?

    If there is no Vacuum, what is controlling the opening and closing of the Fuel Diaphragm ? I think The "Prim" selection on the petcock is to help start the engine when it's cold. It Primes the Engine with fuel during a cold start.

    should the atv should run res or on?

    • @BakersDIYLifestyle
      @BakersDIYLifestyle  4 роки тому

      It should run on on. Res is the reserve setting to allow you to run a little bit longer if you happen to run out of fuel

    Okay, so I have a question, my Vinson 500 is running, but seems to have no power too it. Doesn’t seem to be running rough per se, but when you step on the throttle, it does t have the power that it should. I was looking around the carb and noticed that that vacuum hose is missing from the car to the fuel petcock, could this be the cause?

    • @BakersDIYLifestyle
      @BakersDIYLifestyle  4 роки тому

      I'm sure it could if the petcock is limiting the flow of fuel to the carb. It may be something to check out.

    • @BakersDIYLifestyle
      @BakersDIYLifestyle  4 роки тому

      It could be running a little lean to make it do that. If it's running fine other than that I would just try adjusting the fuel mixture

    Next time just put the bike up on it's side; not all the way but put an old car tire on the ground and tip it up and let it rest on it. Won't hurt and puts all the fuel in the tank away from the petcock and makes it much easier to work on.

    If you forget to turn the new non-vacuum fuel petcock off, your crankcase will fill with fuel within a week....ask me how I know.

      The carburetor float shouldn't allow fuel to flow past the bowl once it's full

    Did you get the same carburetor with the vacuum line and where did you find it?

    • @BakersDIYLifestyle
      @BakersDIYLifestyle  5 років тому +1

      The new carburetor does not have the vacuum line because you don't need it with the new petcock. The one I used came off Ebay for about $180. A new Suzuki one was around $800

    So my air filter would get flooded with gas. I ended up buying a new air filter new oil filter and changed all the fluids and plugs. Then I noticed that I was getting gas in the oil. So I cleaned the carburetor put it back on had the same issue. So I bought a new carburetor put that on, did not adjust the floaters though. Then after putting the carburetor on had the same issue so this video and change this part out. I bought the OEM though for a $37. Just put fresh gas premium of course and 3 1/2 quarts of oil in there and guess what happened. Yes it appears I have gas back in the oil. I don't know what the hell. I want to take the carburetor apart and check to make sure that the floater valves are adjusted accordingly. But this is just a headache

      The carb could still need adjusted or there could be something wrong with a jet that didn't get caught. Hope you get it running!
