Hey so back to this bike..  turns out its sputtering high end and found out the air filter is too restrictive.  Also blew the axle bearing so I gotta replace that cause the chain is wayyyy too loose as is.  Any help on what air filter would work good on this?  It's almost like it needs a turbo haha.

And what's a good plastic cleaner for atvs?  It has mildew on it and some pine sap.

So turns out I still got this bike.  One problem after another on it.  So I bought the stock airbox and air filter put that on and ran good.  Jb welded the hole in this side of the engine...but then I noticed the crankcase seal is leaking oil, and I was riding it one day and it started the old popped with throttle and started to try and seize up on me.  I had just added oil ( due to the leak) so I thought I was good on that

Turns out its spitting oil out the carb into the airbox as well as leaking out the crankcase.  Looks like I'll have to rebuild the top and bottom end...again.  not sure what went wrong? Lol. It still runs good cold.

I get the weirdest atvs... my old 500 ran great on diesel fuel and this bike runs good for ab 5 mins with no oil 🤣🤣🤣

      I am unable to find a wiring diagram for this UTV.  When I turn the switch to on, the contractor does not engage.  The Brake pressure switch and the parking brake switches work correctly. What else should I be looking for?  All of the diagrams I have found are for newer models and the wire color coding is different.
       
      Thanks

      Fixing for a friend. Atv was at a different friends house to be fixed and he rebuilt the carb and had it running nice, then it shut off and no more. He replaced the key and the coil.
       
      So he got busy, so I am helping, I checked the wiring from the stator to the cdi, and from the cdi to the coil. All is good. I checked resistance on the pickup coil, good, and on the source coil, open. I buy a new stator (China) and the 4 prong plug only has 3 wires in it while mine has all 4. I checked resistance in the source coil and it's in the 300's. I pulled one of the old pickup wires out of the old stator and wire it in the new one. Still no spark.
       
      Why do the wires differ, I checked the VIN again and it's "J" for the year and I got a 1988 stator. Please help!

      Hi all, 

      I am wondering if any of you have a Clutch Starter gear from a 1988 era quadrunner 250 sitting around that you could get me a precise measurement of the outer diameter of the race the sprag engages onto, for me? I need to machine a damaged race down and install a hardened sleeve and need that measurement (it's on a different gear than the OEM one, so I can't buy and use a OEM gear).

      Just getting into this issue really. Been replacing solenoids but now I'd like to track down the problem. This time I'm not getting neutral/reverse lights or start button. Was on a creek ride when it started doing this recently. It cranks by arcing the solenoid and gives me no light or start button but if I crank with the pull cord....the neutral light and the button work. Turn it off and try to crank with the key and nothing. I'm looking into the safety switch issue tomorrow and re charging the battery. Just figured this was odd enough of a problem that you guys might be familiar. Thanks
