Cool man. I've been wondering about these carbs myself. You're one of the only guys out there doing King Quad vids, so its great. I've used your vids a couple times to fix mine. Mine is a 91 250 LT4WD, but they're almost identical. Thanks for the good informative King Quad videos!

Just installed a new made in china carb on my King Quad 300 from Amazon. Works great.

Schneids15 PLEASE READ!!!!! I recently purchased one of these for myself. I found out that the 2 "vacuum ports" on the back of the carb are dummy ports. They do not work at all. HOWEVER, i discovered the single long silver one in the front does have a strong vacuum. I ran a vacuum line from it with a splitter to connect both fuel petcock, and fuel pump from that single port and it works excellent! Yes it surprised me too being a Chinese carb but it works great. Mine ran just like yours before I did that. I'd love to see you make a video on that for others!! Excellent channel by the way.

I bought one of those Chinese carbs for my king quad, it looked great until installed. KQ wouldn’t idle, hard to start and constantly flooded. Carb had one less vac tubes, choke and throttle tube wouldn’t fit in the hole. Floats were useless, gas would just pour out the bottom every time I tried cranking the bike. Only good thing was that I was able to use all those new shiny screws to replace my stripped ones.

My made in China kung fu carburetor didn't work so hot at first. Hard starting and had get up and go issues out of the hole. I don't get it. Now.... A week later (no adjustments) It's purring like a kitten. Runs perfect! CRAZY😮

I’d like to think I know my way around a carb until I met a Mikuni. I mean, they are so straight forward that it seems as though anyone could work on them, but I have always run into issues. Helluva job explaining how to get these things running! I’ve gotta go address my surging at 3/4 throttle (no vacuum leaks) and try to find a Mikuni kit for mine. Any suggestions you can toss my way on repair manuals and Mikuni parts distributors would be greatly appreciated. Keep on making these vids! Thanks again!
@VintageAmpRevamp3 жыл бұрын
I wouldn't bother. Spend the $25cad on a carb kit and rebuild the Mikuni! I also sealed the loose rivet on the top of the carb as it can cause issues if it leaks.

I’ve watched all your videos for the king quad but there’s many lines going to and from but I bought a 1995 king quad where everything was took apart. Because the carb was bad. Anyhow I’ve purchased the manual 721 pages. Yet it doesn’t show a-z . I purchased what was supposed to Suzuki carb. Yet it’s different. I wasn’t around when he disassembled the 4-wheeler.,. I just need help to run the lines properly. Plus the other lines as this quad can be in water up to the seat.

I am very interested to see how you get on with this carb - I bought my King Quad 300 earlier this year and have taken the carb apart so many times now as it runs way too rich. The fuel mix adjustment is a pig to get to when on the machine. I have actually just ordered a refurb kit for it so I hope that might solve my problem because whatever I do there is just too much fuel getting onto the plug and its hard as hell to start and keep running.

Just had a look on Amazon UK for the carb in your link - doesn't look like they sell it on the UK site.
@Schneids154 жыл бұрын
I almost guarantee your problem is gas coming from the fuel petcock diaphragm. It breaks and gas goes through the vacuum line and floods the carb. Trace the vacuum line from the carb to the petcock. If you pull it off the petcock and gas is present that is your issue.

@@Schneids15 Changed the petcock today - not an exact replacement although it said it was - fuel line in different position so had to put in a new fuel line from the pump as the original was too short, but otherwise OK - bit of a faff as the cooling fan was obstructing the screws so got that out and managed to get to them. Running much better - not 100% yet but I have the carb refurb kit coming so can't do more until then. Had the fuel mix screw out to 2 1/2 turns. Starts much easier and no backfiring but it is idling too fast and the idle adjust is not doing anything but it could be the throttle cable catching - not worried too much until after the refurb kit has been fitter. Thanks again!

Hi! I did put some 2stroke mixed gas in my quadrunner by mistake. Now i do not have any idle at all or its really high if i turn the idle screw up. The previous owner put a mikuni carb on it from some snowmobile but it has ran fine until now. Could the mixed gas make it act like that? I did clean the carb really good. it had some weird screen around the inside of the carb on the engine side. Not the air box side.
@Schneids153 жыл бұрын
Yes the screen is normal. If it is running rough i am betting the 2 cycle fuel could have fouled your spark plug a little bit. Maybe try a new spark plug first. Otherwise 2 cycle oil will not hurt anything
