Hey everyone. I have been having problems with my KQ staying running. Starting at the top, the battery is dead so I pull start it. I have a new one but don't want to install it until I get this figured out. I have to put it on full choke to start it or it'll barely turn over. Once it starts it idles for 3 to 5 seconds and dies. I have replaced the spark plug, torn down and cleaned the carb. Torn down and cleaned the fuel valve, cleaned the air filter. I'm out of ideas and need some help.

Sounds to  me  a second  tear down  and cleaning of the  carb is in  order. Check the   float height  setting. Make  sure it  is  not  binding and the  needle moves  freely.  It appears  the  motor  is starving  for  gas.  Check  the  idle  jet setting,   and  its  air jet for it  for  obstruction.I  did  a search on your  carb  and I see  it  has a vacuum  operated  secondary throttle control so a careful  check  of the  diaphragm  is  in order too. Also  check  the  carb to  block connection for   air  leaks.

      2005 Suzuki King Quad Battery Question
      By LMI
      Hi all.  New to the forum & quads.  Seems like a great place full of info.
      I just recently picked up a 2005 Suzuki KingQuad LTA700.  I need a battery.  I've been reading up on conventional vs AGM types.  I have a Royal Distributing and Canadian Tire.  RD has 2 types avail for my year/Model a battery YTX16-BS CRANK $75, and BATTERY YTX20CH-BS YUASA $140.  Neither of these is the type from the manual FTZ16-BS.
      from what I can tell... I think the only difference is the capacity with the $75 unit rated at 14 AH/10HR and the $140 unit rated at 18 AH/10HR ... which is the rating in the manual for the FTZ16-BS.  How much does this make a difference for nearly x2 the cost?
      And about the models/type numbers.... what is important to know ... they all end in "-BS" but are the other details relevant or just manufacturer naming?

      2000 Yamaha big bear 400 won’t start
      By Mister907
      Hi guys, I have a 2004 big bear 400. Last winter while plowing the driveway, I heard a loud pop from the left side of the engine. It continued to run as I looked for leaky fluid, but then died shortly after backing it up and won’t start now. The oil light comes on when I try to start it, no noise or anything else. 
      No blown fuses that I can find.

      Timberwolf 250 starting issue
      By Jdeaton011989
      Hi all. I have a timberwolf 250 2nd that will not start.. I thought it was out of time bc the guy I got it from said it just quit on him. The tensioner had a nut welded to it and it was like2 teeth off. I installed new tensioner and chain and it still will not start. It has fire and it will not hit off brake cleaner. It has compression. Haven't put a gauge but I'm sure it will crank and run with what it has. I double checked my work and it's still in time. Spot on. Both valves move. I'm about to put a feeler gauge on them and I'll cone back but other than that any ideas?
