i didn't read thru all the posts here because this laptop is slow, but as far as the tire issue, if the tire doesn't have a hole in it and it's just losing air from a bad bead seal, take the tire off the bike and let all the air out of it, and the rim side that has the dirt init, break the bead and just wash all the crap out of it. when you go to put air back in, you can move the tire enough to push itself back onto the bead 9 times out of 10 ...

lol i thought that would be bad due to the excessive power of a car running compared to the power needed on a quad.... well then i guess ill be stocking up on spark plugs :laugh:

i see well then i guess ill look at getting another marine battery.

Side bar; Jerod you wouldnt by chance know anything about the gas pump would you?

i wouldn t by a battery made for a boat. the electrical systems on a boat and quad are different and a boat battery won t charge its self. and if your worried about it going dead while trying to start it just hook it up to a trickle chargeer it will be enough to keep the battery charged.

idk bout tht the altornator should still charge tht battery..... not tryin to be a smart a$$ but it would basically be like charging the battery with a normal battery charger:yes:......... and as far as hooking up the charger to it instead goes yes it will give the battery some juice but not near as much for starting as it would if you jumped it...unless it has the 50amp jumpstart option on the charger....and the boat battery WILL hold a charge longer than the quad battery tht is a fact...

make sure too that you drain the gas tank and clean it out good. and tear apart your carb and clean everything in it to.

ya the carb might need a lil bit of adjusting also...... u might need to adjust your idle a lil bit because it may be a lil bit low after sitting for so long..

if u DONT clean your carb its gonna make the quad sputter and backfire and all tht jazz ...... tht is if its real dirty but it may not be... wenever my 400 sat for a year and a half i never even cleaned the carb all i did was dump tht mystery oil in the tank, adjust the idle screw, then i just drove it around and let it clean itself out

      2 problems with 2000 Timberwolf 4x4
      By Tim Keiper
      1st problem, Does anyone know where I can find a stock carb for my Timberwolf, I have tried two different aftermarket carbs and they both suck. The machine runs great until it gets good and warm, then it keeps stalling unless I feather the throttle. it will even stall while I'm trying to go from 1st to reverse or vise versa. I took it to a buddy of mine who is a bike mechanic for years, and he told me try to find a factory carb. When I look online from dealers it says "NOT AVAILABLE" anyone have any suggestions ?
       
      2nd, The small tab on the rear axle for towing is to short for even pulling my small yard trailer, I can't even turn a little bit and hit hits. I tried making an extension which worked great as far as length, but it bends the tab and then the extension drags the ground. I have an idea of what to do to fix it, but wanted to see if anyone else has had this problem and see how you solved it.

      I Was Riding By Myself. I was going through a Mud HOLE Either there was a log or a rock, or A Dip but just as I was almost through it, Machine, Rolled over on my right side, as soon as I contacted the ground, I Heard A SNAP! I got up, flipped the Quad back over. I had the wind knocked out of me.

      2008 kazuma 800 4x4. i need wiring help. no spark
      By carkivey3
      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.

      1995 Kawasaki bayou 220 won't start
      By kaidella
      Bought 4 wheeler for kids. Used to run and soon as it was put in gear it died. I have put new carburater, new plug and battery. The neutral light won't come on. I replaced the solenoid, then the positive battery cable and today put new relay assembly on. Still no neutral light. Not getting any juice and I don't know why.
