Good point, I think you will be glad you replaced it, when you get it all installed engine may run better, glad to hear you still have the original kei hin carb

The last one i bought had the air box missing, i opted to replace it for several reasons. The pod filters are not water tight and thats not a good thing on an ATV. The CVK carb works best with OEM filters, which is why they would need to be rejetted. Pod filters are not cheap and neither are proper OEM jets, so if you add up those costs its cheaper to get the airbox. Or it was in my case, i found one on Ebay for about 50.00.

From model year 1998 until 2010, all VIN stamps can be found on the frame in the front left wheel well.

I figured you probably did, just thought i would throw that in just in case.

Good to hear. Keep the oil checked and don't go chasing trees.

I have gotten all of this figured out now, the bike is in good running order (I have to pull the valve cover off and seal a leak but besides that) The bike was built from two parts bikes that sat for close to ten years so for what it was it in great shape now

If you have power going to starter relay you have 12 volts on that post nothing on the other post, you hit the start button then get 12 volts on the post going to the starter if you still get nothing there, its either a bad relay or wiring from the switch. You can touch the two posts together with a screw driver and see if the starter turns.
