Took my 05 for a ride yesterday after getting it dynoed and tuned and it scared me. I had a dead empty tank before I started it (brother needed gas ) and when I was riding it at steady throttle I could feel it giving up a little and it was popping way more and backfiring on decel. I was riding with a friend who was also having problems with his quad when mine just gave up and died in 5th gear so I pulled in the clutch and popped it in 4th so it would start. It started and seemed to run fine after a while at a stop sign talking and worrying. Seemed to not "give up" on steady throttle after a while. I was thinking this all could be the result of a dirty carb since I had an empty tank (all the garbage at the bottom). Any input?

Part 2 : Ever since before the dyno and tune my quad ticks steadily when I'm letting it out of first gear. Why would this be happening?

Its a 2005 Honda 450r with a pro circuit full exhaust, k&n filter, no lid, no pre filter, and sprockets.

I`m assuming it ran fine on the dyno? then i would think it was dirt from the tank in which case youll have to tear it down and clean it !!

      I like to ride in wooded and grassy areas. It takes my mind off the everyday routines and helps me deal with my father's cancer. Also gives me a reason to get involved with forums like this one.

      Just aquired this Honda 4514. I had heard of them and seen them but had never really looked at one. Amazing machine from the 90s.
      It has a 14 HP inline 2 cylinder engine. A cute little fan like the old school cars had and a little radiator. It has a timing belt on the back of the engine running the cam and a water pump. Just like a miniature car engine with  electronic clutches to turn blades on and off. Pretty hight tech for the 90s not a small thing and built like a tank weighs in at 600 pds hydrostatic trans. I have found out that almost anything you have to do to it the engine has to come out starter timing belt water pump. Very expensive parts i think most got junked for that reason, i did find out they were built by John Deere except for the honda engine.
      Does anyone here have any expierience with these.

      Hey everyone, I just replaced the carp on my 98 Kodiak 400 with PN#4SH-14101-00-00. It starts and idles perfect, but once it’s good and warmed up, it bogs out at 3/4 throttle or more… it sounds like it’s bouncing off a rev limiter haha… I tried the air fuel screw, all the way in and out 2-1/2, and it made it a touch better… tried 2 turns and no different. Am I missing something?

      Hello everyone.  This is a Go Cart and not a typical "ATV" but it has an engine so I'm hoping someone can help me.  It's a Helix FTX with a Manco 150cc engine.  The engine will start and idle for awhile, but will not take even a small touch of throttle.  Stalls.  It seems to take throttle and rev up when you first start it cold, but in just a minute, it will not take any throttle.  I've replaced the Fuel valve/Pump on the fuel tank with no joy.  It's a nice little cart, but without a workable engine, it's a boat anchor.  I'm not dumb when it comes to small engines, but this one has me stumped.  I'm running out of options.  
      I'll mention that while it is idling, it will sort of "cough" every 6 or 8 seconds and then recover and idle again.  Eventually one of those "coughs" causes it to stall.  It will start back up pretty easily, but as I said, it absolutely will not take any throttle and then it will cough and stall a minute later.  I thought it could be timing, but there is no "adjustment" for timing on this engine.  I downloaded the user manual and it mentions nothing about timing and is pretty much useless as a service guide.  It just shows the basics.  I'm attaching the manual so you can get an idea of the machine I'm dealing with.  
      Any input would be greatly appreciated.
      Kind regards, 
      Don
