1996 300cc King-Quad issues

[FranciscoJ]

I am new but also need help. I thought I would combine the two posts here. My name is Francisco and recently I acquired a used 300cc King-quad. I am going to use it for fun, but mainly for woods / hunting. It starts and runs, but when I gas it...it just dies pretty much.

I have ordered my manual, but it won't be here for a few days at least. If anyone can help, it would be greatly appreciated.

I have fixed a couple things on it already. I have fixed the winch and installed a ignition switch. However, there are a couple things I very much need help on.

1) The left hand handlebar. Where does that wire / cable go? Right now it is rusted and i am trying to free it at the handlebar. However when I removed the seat, the cable is just laying there...I think...lol

2) How do I adjust the A/F ratio? Is it the screw next to gas inlet and some other screw I saw on there?

When u got it did u replace/ or check all the fluids? For the carburetor problem with it dying as it gets gas u most likely have to clean it cause u have gunk in it.

1.) If im not mistaken i think the wire/cable that u are looking at is the parking break, on the handlebar is it attached to the hand break or is it loose up their as well?

2.) the air to fuel ratio i can only tell u to wait for the manual, unless someone else chimes in.

Well, there are two possibilities. I think the small cable is the choke or something. I think the easiest thing (to be honest) is to wait for the manual...lol

agree with u 100%

I have 2mths until hunting season. And if done right, this will last me YEARS. No need to rush it...
