@todd88100 you could use fuel stabilizer and also drain the carb by loosening the bottom plug, first turn off the fuel tank valve.

On my 03 Yamaha Kodiak 400 4x4 i replaced the needle/seat and Main jet along with the diagram and needle set. Bowl gasket as well.

Did it still leak gas out of the overflow after the rebuild? I have had mine rebuilt at the dealership with a new carb kit 2 times and it still leaks. I took mine apart by watching your video. I am gonna try a new float in hopes that helps. Thank you for doing such a good job with these videos.

you should open up the carb and let it dry thoroughly

i have the same carburetor on my yamaha warrior. You dont need to replace the needle, the metal part on the needle bends down and needs to get adjusted periodically

Great video. I have a 1988 yamaha moto 4 350. My pilot jet does not have a hole all the way thru. The end appears to be solid brass. All videos I have seen shows the hole all the way thru?????

let the carb dry good in the sun maybe, as long as everything has been drained and turn the engine over with the plug out firt to spray out any water

The only thing I saw that I would have done was remove the adjustment screw and cleaned it out... I know that it was running ok but gum builds up, and even if it is running ok at the time it doesn't mean there isn't some buildup.. Simple process... just note the position of the slot , mark it, countue number of 1/2 turns to lightly bottom it out , then return it to the original position the same number of 1/2 turns , stopping on your mark ... If it doesn't run the same , it's because there was gunk in the needle or seat ...but it will only be a slight adjustment left or right to correct it...

If you clean a lot of carbs, a torch cleaning kit would be a good investment for the jets.
@thefreese1 Жыл бұрын
That could get you into trouble if you aren't careful... you can accidentally open up a jet that way ..

Hi there, great videos. I was cleaning my 1987 Big Bear 4X4 and now I have a small spring, rubber o ring and a flat washer. I'm pretty sure it goes with the what you call the "adjustment screw" which you didn't take apart in your part 2 video. Wondering in what order the parts go on the screw. Pretty it's the spring first, then the washer and then the o-ring. It was 2 turns out, does that sound right? Thanks a bunch.

Good vid! I have a 1985 bigbear 350 that i'm having a bugger of a time with. Will start... and run pretty good at higher rpm's, but during idle and/or take off once warmed up.... keeps quitting on me. After that, no matter how much I adjust carb, it keeps quitting, making starting it again harder each time. Not too familiar with the in's and out's of small engines..... so any suggestions?? Thanks in advance to whoever has a solution!!

Hey I have a problem with my yamaha 04 beartracker. When I start it, it will idle but when I rev it to about half throttle it'll start dying out, but once warmed up it'll work better and better. I'm pretty sure it's getting too much/too little air, any suggestions?

I have a 2000 Yamaha Warrior and I keep having to replace the needle and seat, it gets wicked gummed up with a brown resin that hardens like concrete. Do you have any recommendations? I'm not sure if it's due to bad gas or what but it's getting really annoying especially when the needle and seat is close to $60.00 at my Yamaha dealer.

Greetings I saw your carb rebuild on the yamaha kodiac. How do I remove the slide??
@Dan-nn3mi9 жыл бұрын
Thank you for the video good job. I have a 350 Big Bear and while I was trying to start the engine it would only run for a few seconds. The small of gas was very strong. I removed the seat and the air filter housing and ¼ of the housing was filled with gas/oily mixture of some sort. I keep the machine in the shop so there was no water in the system but it would not run very well at all. After removing the gas and cleaning up the machine I removed the crank case breather hose and while starting the engine it was running a lot better, but the hose was blowing gas and oil out of the breather hose. The longer I let it run the more gas came out until after 30 minutes it slow down and stopped. After 1 hour there was only a drop every two seconds coming out of the breather hose. The question is what caused it and what do I need to do to make it work better? I did let it run for about 2 to 3 hours. Any help would be great. Thank you for your videos.
@keithofarns87389 жыл бұрын
Your Crankcase Breather tube filling up with excessive oil is probably due to, too much Blow By from the piston rings allowing air to pass by them (worn rings or damaged cylinder walls, most likely) You could try to re-ring but be ready to overhaul.

I have a 1989 YFM 200 DXW MOTO4 that I removed the carb to clean it after 5 years of inside storage. Unfortunately, I had left some fuel in the carb which turned into turpentine. My problem is that when I inadvertently removed the air mixture screw I forgot to flatten it out to determine how many 1/2 turns counter-clockwise out it should be. In the video at the 4:17 mark you decided not to remove it but could you tell me what the stock specs or "half turns" are for the mixture screw. Thanks for any advice you might have!
