  1. I did replace the line as they had some tiny little thin one attached and i saw fuel when i sucked on it. Didn't do a full proper test like you are saying though i will have to go check that out when i got time for sure. Waiting on new air filter and a boot for the airbox, because i feel like tuning with no air box even connected is sorta redundant, not sure if these engines are sensitive to it but figured its a good idea either way.
  2. Ok, long story short i basically had to re do the whole fuel and vacuum system. They had bypassed the fuel pump for some reason and that was confusing me pretty bad, thats why i was doing weird stuff with the vacuum, honestly still not 100% sure i have all the lines right because this carb is a little different than OEM it seems. Anyways now its all hooked up and i can get it to run for as long as i want with a little throttle input, so still a bit of tuning to do. Im going to put new fluids in it now that i now it will actually run. Oh and the smoking has gone away quite alot already so i figure some new gas and running it a while will fix er up. Only a few more posts then i can download the manuals and stop having to ask everything ha.
  3. Well new carb seems to fit atleast, there is a vacuum line was not not sure what to do with but it looks like it pushes air into my gas tank to add some pressure and push fuel if that sounds right, its the one on the "back side" of the carb on the engine side not the airbox. Also is there guides on here for checking valve lash? I got alot of smoke and some of it coming from the intake so im hoping they are just out of spec and letting some exhaust come up through. Also dies after like 15 seconds of running with a high idle.
  4. Ah my bad, it was not actually fully installed when i bought it, it just came with it. The carb was just loosely set in place not actually in the boots but the cables and fuel line were connected. My carb looks alot like one of the OEM ones but is over a quater inch longer by my measurements. Think im just going to order the similar looking aftermarket one and we shall see how its goes, atleast they dont cost a whole lot.
  5. Yes it was on it when i got it, i figured it was the wrong one or i was just dumb and not installing it right somehow, came here to double check before buying anything.
  6. I do believe the one with no diaphragm would fit due to where it is hitting the starter when i try to install the one i have already. I have not bought anything yet the one that doesn't fit is the old one that came with the quad, i bought it not running. Its weird to me that it wouldn't fit at all, i mean i get there are different models but you would think either would fit but just not run right. Honestly im about to just remove the starter and get this one i have in it to make sure it will run before putting more time in.
  7. According to my VIN its an LT 4WD and there are 2 carbs that fit i guess, does the J in my VIN also mean model J for the carb? If not ill just guess with an aftermarket one and see if it will even fit.
  8. Hello, i just bought this quad and i think the carb that came with it is either wrong or i am very dumb and cannot figure out how to install it ha. The bottom of the carb hits the wire boot on the starter before i can get it to seat into the boots, i measured it with calipers and its about 6.1 inches long. The ones that i see on ebay for it claim 5.72 inches for length, i assume that will fix my issue but just wanted to double check before buying. The carb that is in it right now has no numbers or anything on it for me to reference.
