2007 King Quad 450 idle air screw setting


KCOLLIS

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

I have a 2007 king quad 450 with starting/idle/power problems. My two boys had a go at it while I was away at work and now I found that the idle air screw was removed and I don't know about setting it up. I want to set this before I start on the other problems. New fuel pump, new injector, new foam air filter, error code reads -C00. Any help would be appreciated.

Do you still have the screw? I don't believe it is an air metering screw, I think it just moves the throttle position to adjust the idle. Look and see what the screw does, does it move the butterfly valve when you turn it in? If it were me, I would start by screwing it in just short of opening the throttle vavle. If you need to open in up more, you should be able to make that adjustment on the throttle cable adjustment on the bars. Go with the most simple things first, if you don't have a repair manual, get one.l

It couldn't hurt to call a dealer tech and ask them how to set it properly. Don't let them talk you into bringing it in to them. If they won't give up the answer, get a factory Suzuki repair manual, it has all the info that the dealers do, and it is cheaper than an hour of their labor. The crappy thing here is, you need that to be correct before you can even begin to address any other problems.

Can you access the screw with the throttle body on the quad? Would it be possible to adjust it with the engine running? That would be ideal because if you can't find the info, you could just set it to 1 1/2 or 2 turns out from seated and fine tune it with the motor running.

Were you having other problems before your kids started messing with the machine. If you think the injector may be part of the problem, you can take it out and inspect it visually. I have heard of people having problems with cracked injectors. Also, there is a temp sensor in the airbox, make sure the plug is secure and the wires aren't damaged. Probably wouldn't hurt to check wiring on any thing you may think is not working properly. I know I have found several wires on my LT-R that have wear spots on the insulation and I have had to tape them up. Good luck.

Thanks DirtDemon,

I'm going to call the dealer today. I need to know the factory setting because I was having other problems and need the origional setting on the air screw before troubleshooting the other stuff. Hard to start, rough idleing, and poor power under load is making me think valves but I would like to try some other stuff first. My compression tester won't fit the small spark plug hole so I'm going to try and figure out how to use my vacuum tester on the valve manifold.

Thanks again, Ken

      Hi, I have been around everything with a motor since I was little, and finally purchased more to get my husband, and kids involved. I have 4 quads I will be searching around for information on. I have two 2002 Suzuki LT80K quads, a 1997 Yamaha Timberwolf 250, and a 1996 Kawasaki Bayou 220. I have had different ones throughout the years, and plan on buying another Yamaha Banshee. I plan on trying to learn more about all of them, so I can customize some of them. I know nothing about them besides how to race them, my dad always took care of the rest, but figured it was time for me to learn.

      If you had to choose one mod that you couldn't live without, or had to recommend one what would it be?

      Hi everyone, I received a 98 Yamaha Timberwolf from my brother for free, and I'm working on getting it going. 
      I am having the following problem: 
      The engine is backfiring through the carb. 
      I have done the following to try and get the four wheeler running: 
      Rebuilt the carb and set the air screw to 1-1/4 turn out and the circlip at middle position 3
      Replaced the coil, because the cable was loose at the coil end
      Repaired the main ground, coming from the battery
      Replaced the ignition switch, because my brother couldn't find the key. New switch tested good
      Tested the kill switch and it tested good
      New coil tested goodfor both primary and secondary coils
      Pickup coil resistance is at 195, which is correct
      My source coil, is where I believe the issue is. The resistance is 310ohms, and it should be between 428-523ohms
      When I opened the stator housing, there was significant oil, which I have read is normal. Does it sound like I'm on the right track replacing the source coil? Could this be causing my backfiring issue? It looks like the source coil is part of the stator assembly, is this correct? 4BD-85510-20-00 STATOR ASSY

      The 2024 ATVs are out and I was just looking at the websites for Yamaha and Suzuki. The Grizzly and King Quad have come a long way, probably two of my favorite quads over the years. Both of these come with power steering but I almost like the King Quad styling a little more. The plastics haven't changed much over the years either, mayeb a little more rugged. The King Quad racks are more like the Polaris plastic racks (I think they were the first to introduce these) but on a closer look, I think its just plastic covers over the traditional metal racks. The Grizzly still keeps the old style metal racks. I like the display/instrument panel on the Grizzly more.

      Thoughts on these two? Here's a pretty good comparison of both 2023 models. I didn't know some of these things like no seat latch on the Grizzly and hydraulic rear brake vs cable. Good video to watch if you are consideting these:
