Hello everyone, i have 2000 Polaris Trail Blazer 300 I’ve been stumped on for weeks. I’m having a lot of issues starting the quad. I cleaned the carb spotless because I thought it was a carb issue and bought a new fuel line because it wasn’t getting fuel. The carb gets fuel perfectly fine now but it won’t start. The spark plug I a little worn out but it’s good enough for just one start. The only time it does “start” is when I spray starter fluid into the carb. But it never stays on. It’ll start for a bout a second then just die out immediately even if you’re giving it some throttle and the choke is on. I have no clue what I should do. If you need more information, have questions, or have any slight idea what the issue would be and how I could resolve it. Please reply ASAP. Thank you.

Welcome to Quadcrazy. What did you set the adjustment screws at? Air/fuel an shows the idle? Did you reassemble the float properly? That needle that closes off fuel to the bowl sometimes is tricky making sure it’s attached to the floats.  I’m sure your work was good on the carb but I’ve missed stupid things too. It’s clearly a fuel issue so it has to be either the carb or fuel line. I would go back and look. Also the rubber manifold that connects the carburetor to the engine, make sure it’s not cracked sucking in air. 

Before you do anything try this. Take the cap off the gas tank and blow into the tank putting pressure into the tank will push that needle in the carb down and try to start the engine. See what happens. Sounds crazy but hey I’ve done it.

@Ashton Crawford thanks man that’s really helpful!! I’ll be sure to check all those things out. I don’t know what I set the fuel air to honestly? I think 3 turns out. What should I set them too?? Also I know it’s not the line. The line is brand new and I made sure it was putting through fuel. Also the carb is getting fuel all through it. I started to think it was just not burning the fuel. But hopefully your information will be a solution!

      Issue with 89 Yamaha moto 4 250cc
      By Need-help-with-quads
      So I have an 89 Yamaha moto 4 250cc and when I ride it, itll get hot after like 10-15 mins and then will just die and turn off.
      It's has new carb rebuild, new air filter, new battery, new spark plug so I don't think it's a crack in the spark plug
      Can anyone help me?

      Favorite ATV brands and features?
      By DarkRider
      Hey Everybody,
       
      I am always curious about any ATVs I haven't tried yet. I'll probably be in the market for something different soon, currently looking to sell my 05 Brute Force 750. I decided to note my favorite features of any 4x4 ATV and compile them into a list. These are all models I've had in the past, the King Quad 300 and Brute Force 750 are my current models. I'll most likely consolidate to one.
       
      Really just wanted to get some ideas on what other people have owned in a similar range, and maybe get ideas for my idea quad (used). So far, I keep finding myself back at the 05 Yamaha Kodiak 450 or Grizzly 450. Not sure exactly what years they made which, but they seem pretty similar.
       
      Some of the features I tend to like best  (aside from durability and reliability)
      Engine braking (good for hill descent) Park gear (the regular parking brakes always seem to be finicky) Mid sized engine for better fuel efficiency (Seems that anything 500 or above really starts to guzzle gas, and they fit better on narrower trails) IRS (more comfortable ride) Diff Lock (can't live without it) **Side note: I know Durability and Reliability might seem like they'd be the same, but the way I am defining them is:
      Durability is how long I can go without something breaking. OR how often things break with seeming not much of a good reason. Reliability is about the on-trail experience of having everything work properly as designed (i.e. Starting up and being able to get going without much issue, the 4wd drive engages without quirks, I can park it on a hill when needing to help someone else without worrying it'll roll away, etc) My Brute Force 750 is a perfect example of why Durability and Reliability were rated so differently. With durability, I really never felt like I've had anything break on the thing that was really from riding it. Which is great in that regard. But all of the things i've had to fix on it seem more so in it's design. The infamous KEBC code on the dash that refused to go away even after completely cleaning and lubing the KEBC and confirming it functions properly. Hard starting issues. 4WD requires you to roll about 10 to 15 feet to engage, so if you get stuck in 2WD, you're in a pickle. The infamous bus connector that goes bad and stops your charging system from working. I've worked through all of these, but these are all things I'd consider reliability issues that happen really at no fault of mine as I ride it pretty gently. Writing up this list has actually put a lot into perspective for me. The King Quad 300 really is a superb quad. The inclusion of the Super Low range provides stellar engine braking down pretty much any hill you can think of, it seems like it's unmatched. It has great gas mileage, and it's been dead reliable despite being a 1994. It's got 4x4 AND Diff lock, and the semi automatic transmission also help with not letting the quad get out of control down a hill. Plus it's more fun to me and gives me a bit more to do while riding. The biggest annoyance so far has been the parking brake. No matter how much I adjust it, it just doesn't seem stay adjusted after some time. I believe this might just be flawed on these models.  Also, parts availability is not the greatest on these since they don't make anything newer with any similar parts. Front axles are quite expensive, rear drive shafts go for $400 to $500 brand new, etc.
      And that's where the Park gear on Yamaha's Ultramatic eliminates that issue. That's where I keep landing on the older Grizzly or Kodiak 450s. They have a park gear, IRS and Diff lock, a lot of power and they're super fun to ride (got to test one).  But I'd be giving up fuel efficiency and the Super Low range. The Ultramatics still have good engine braking, but still not comparable to the Super Low on Suzuki.
       
      With ALL that said, curious about what other people out there have had and enjoyed, and I'm just looking to get some ideas of what other smaller/mid sized quads are out there with similar features.  I don't really know anything about Honda, Suzuki, or Arctic Cat models from the mid 2000's.
       
      Curious to hear other perspectives!

      What would make it surge the one tire? King Quad 300 "97
      By Chucksta
      So.. it a weird one.. The quad surges as you go down the road. By the looks of my tracks, it's one wheel only. High range, low range, 2 wd , 4 wd.. It just doesn't matter.. 
      You can see in the pictures the marks it leaves. That was in a straight line, with hardly any acceleration. 
      Any ideas?

      Timberwolf 2x4 shifting issue
      By Beefy1
      I just acquired a 1994 Timberwolf 250 2wd. Drove fine at seller’s property. Got home, I started it, put it first gear, shifted to reverse, backed out of trailer, moved reverse shifter back forward, then nothing. Throttle revs but doesn’t go anywhere. The shift lever doesn’t really feel like it’s going through gears. I can roll it manually forever so I’m pretty sure it’s in neutral, but no neutral light. Then I decided to try reverse again, and, it goes into reverse. And drives in reverse. But as soon as I take it out of reverse, it rolls freely again. I can’t get it into any forward gear. The seller has owned it for 20 years (60 year old man). He didn’t have a manual so I’ve ordered a Clymer (I’m old school paper in my hand reader). Outward appearance is very good. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

      Headlight Issue
      By alexwv1863
      I have an 04 Yamaha Kodiak 450 that I recently got running. When I got it, I noticed it was missing the right headlight wiring connector that the lightbulb goes into and plugs into the wiring harness. I bought a replacement, a Chinese generic part. When I first connected it, it worked fine so I didn't think much about it. A few days later, I went to move my bike after it got dark, I turned the lights on and that side didn't have low beam but had high beam. I thought maybe the light blew or something. The next day I go look at it, still no low beam. While I had the lights on, I started noticing smoke. I no l immediately shut everything off and ripped the wiring off the bike. The wires were completely fried! Thankfully this happened when I wasn't riding, and had the rack and front cover off so I noticed it immediately.
      I wanted to give you the backstory on what all happened. To give warning to others who have purchased these cheap harnesses and to ask this:
      After all that happened and I was thinking on it, it made me wonder if this happened to the previous owner and that was why there wasn't one on the bike when I got it. What should I look for that could possibly be overloading that part or what? Anyone have any ideas?
