So I picked up this quad for 200 bucks. Needs everything serviced or replaced due to neglecting. So I tore into it and stripped it to the frame and did a bunch of work. I’m having an issue. It runs and revs to 3/4 throttle and almost bogs out. It smokes a lot at wot. So the 210 jet is responsible for that. I know it’s a 2 stroke carb and I just don’t know what to jet with. The oil injection is faulty so I disconnected it and run 32:1 mixed. Any ideas fellas?

Merry Christmas and happy new year frank!
I disconnected it from the intake boot. Put a bolt thru the intake to cap off the line. Then I kinked both the lines from the pump and tank so nothing got in there. The tank is empty except for the little bit that’s left.

Im going to try a 175 main and leave the needle alone. If anything I may change the needle to a cel or yym. Depending on throttle response

I would definitely change the jet. Reason i was asking about the oil intake was because if left the oil intake port open you would have some suction drawing air through that port but i know you better then that. 
Did this problem just start happening?

Yeah. Out of no where. That 175 was worse than before with the 210. I’m gonna try 240 230 and 220. It’s dialed in right. Runs great. Just not at wot

Okay. So 210 220 230 and 240 are all the same. The 175 loads up and bogs but if ya feather into it,
stumbles. If ya juice it it will bog but clear out and rev like a beast. I’m thinking a spark delivery is the culprit. I just don’t want to lean it so hard I melt rings.

I bet the flywheel has something to do with it. The coil is new and the plug. Reeds and intake boot. The carb is clean and no engine leaks. Compression is a solid 148 and holds.

I hear your point on possibly the flywheel and the trigger coil maybe having a problem.  Its possible that the gap is causing a problem  and at high rpms its breaking down?   Maybe put an inline spark monitor so you can see if its in fact breaking down at the high rpm.
If its breaking up at wot it makes me think its the reeds.  I know you changed them but maybe the reed retainer plates are not right? 
Why I'm thinking along these lines is the high rpm problems.  During the intake period at high rpms the velocity and intake at the  reeds could  be problematic causing a fuel delivery problem? 
Im just throwing some possibilities out there maybe you will stumble onto something.

Is there a difference in reed plates? I know branding is different. I.E. Boyseen fmf oem. But the only difference I see is the dual stage reeds vs regular. What I really need is a multi tool to check the every thing. Kinda like a amp probe or a clamp on voltage meter. I know Klein makes them. But are they optimal for 12 volts or less?

Klien makes a good one that goes low. I will send you a pic of mine. Have you put any thought into the in line ignition tester to see if your losing spark at any certain rpm?

The reed plates are different depending on the brand and  power band of the engine. What's in there now ? I know you checked and changed but i would have a second look at that and make sure that the plates are ok.

      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?

      honda trx 500 fm foreman 2012 no start issue
      By gordonmacritchie
      on my honda trx 500 we have no power to the ignition switch for starting or ignition
      we have lights and horn working
      all fuses are fine
      have traced through the harness and cant find any broken wires or bad connections
      from what we have gathered so far the pgm fi unit is not sending any power to the fuel pump relay to power everything up.
      if we put power direct to the ignition switch plug then everything works but wth the key in the off position.
      does this sound like a faulty pgm fi unit?

      Frame straightening.
      By toe420
      Hello everyone, I have a 92 honda trx350 I just picked up that has a bent section of the frame where the rear of the seat would clip into place. It almost looks like a tree or something heavy fell on it. Its a fairly deep bend, if that makes sense. It like a V instead of straight. What are peoples goto methods for straightening a section like that?

      Need Help with My 2021 Polaris Sportsman – Engine Stalling Issue
      By digrig
      Hey everyone,
      I’m having an issue with my 2021 Polaris Sportsman 570 – the engine keeps stalling after running for about 10–15 minutes. I’ve checked the air filter, spark plug, and fuel lines, but can’t seem to find the root of the problem. It starts up just fine, but then loses power suddenly.
      Has anyone experienced a similar issue with this model/year? Would appreciate any advice or troubleshooting tips you’ve tried that worked. Thanks in advance for your help!

      91 quadrunner lt4wd shifting issue
      By Joeguy
      After i did my rebuild it seems to not want to shift well. I think the cable is alright, and when it does shift its nice and solid. I have to basically use my hand to shift and i have to pull or push it very far, like max travel, to get it to shift. I also tried adjusting the clutch set screw. Any ideas where to go next, or maybe i should just grab a new cable to try.
