Hey all hopefully someone can help me out here. I found a 1985 lt80 laying around at the yard where I work and it’s missing some parts. Obvious things I noticed were carburetor fuel tank seat. Is there someone out there that has maybe a picture of one of these motors assembled so I can see what I’m working with and what I’m missing?  I ordered a new carb and got it installed to the existing cable but I’m not sure what else it needs as I’m not expert on these little engines. Any help would be greatly appreciated

I’d like to know how the carburetor is connected. There’s a few hose lines that come off it. I don’t know much about carburetors so yea. I just don’t know if there’s more parts that I’m missing.

There are two pilot holes on the top passenger side of the carb.  The front hole goes to a breather port that dead ends under the gas tank.  It just needs a small filter or piece of cloth taped on the end of the hose.  The other small 1/4" hole on the carb is toward the rear of the bike and it goes to the fuel petcock valve to the diaphragm port.  The larger lower opening hole is fuel into the carb and also goes to the fuel petcock to the outer connection where it says on/off/priScreenshot_20211109-170936.thumb.png.b8a81fee92890c51ce6cf4b7ca2952c7.png

      I’m brand new to 4 wheelers and just bought a 1987 Yamaha Moto 4 350. It has good compression and fuel, but no spark. I’ve looked high and low trying to find how to test all the components of the ignition system, but can’t find anything. This has a new CDI box on it, but I suspect it might be the stator. How do I test the stator on this? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

      I hadn't driven my Kodiak for a two months, and since it was low on fuel, the first thing I did was filled it up to maybe 7/8 full. Getting ready to start it, I rotated the fuel selector switch to "on" and within seconds I smelled and saw fuel dripping onto the floor. I quickly turned it off and the fuel gradually stopped - I can repeat this.
      The fuel is flowing from the hose that is connected to the bottom of the carb, and routes around to the left side toward the wheel well. Any idea what's going on here? It ran fine the last time I had it out.
      Thanks...

      i just picked this up. was told ran fine but overheating issues led to replacing head gasket and head. has not ran since. he is not a mechanic but helped someone else who he could not get back to finish job, got aggravated and put up for sale. i was thinking timing issues. i have 110-120psi on all 3 cylinders so i think valves are correct. dont know about distributor yet. however i have no spark. i have no power going to ignition coil. tried to follow white wire but gets lost in wire harness. does anyone have a wiring diagram? can anyone tell me what conditions have to be met before starting. motor turns over so i would think all safeties are met but you never know.

      Hello all! I’m new to the 4 wheeler world, but not new to the mechanic world. I was a diesel mechanic for many years and last year got into jet skis. I just bought a 1987 Yamaha moto 4 350 and now learning the ins and outs of 2 stroke engines. Looking forward to learning all the things.
