Pulled my '86 Moto4 out of shed where it sat for 20 years. I knew it smoked. checked it over a little put in gas and it fired right up!!
Drove about 100 yards, ran about half throttle wouldn't idle. Put on somenew parts, jug/piston and rings, carb and valve seals.
'went together ok, tuned it over by hand about 6 revs whick went well. Hit the starter it fired for about 6 revs and quit. tried it again fired once and then th sound of something slipping like maybe chain slipping over spoket.
Took cover off to watch cam sproket, hit starter again, heard same noise and the cam sproket was not turning but jumping a bit. Chain was still tight. You will probably tell me I need to split the lower case but hoping there mightbe something else.
I don't fully understand the chain tightener, the plunger only moves about 1/4 inch, should it move much more than that when off the motor and compressing it by hand?
Thanks for any thoughts.

My first quad and I have a problem. I have a Kawasaki Bayou 300 1997. When I start it. It will go on high idle for about ten seconds before it goes down to low idle. It does this even when I don't touch the throttle or the choke.
Also, when I give it some throttle and let go. It will come back to fast idle for about ten seconds before it comes down to slow idle. Therefore I have to wait for it to slow up before I can shift. The throttle linkage drops right back to the stop on the carb buy the rpms stay up for a while. If you have any ideas what might be wrong please let me know. thank you Fred

Hello guys, I hope I am not invading your space, but as you can see the current state of my project here it's not but about 50% ATV. I am hoping that some one here can point me to a wiring schematic that I can reference since the "Complete wiring harness" i purchased from Amazon did not include a diagram of any kind.
The ones that I am finding on line vary greatly but none show the connections for the separate 5 wire connector coming from the motor.
Can someone tell me where these wires go?
Thanks in advance for all help!

I know this seems stupid to ask but how do I know which fuel line goes to which intake valve on my 1996 Polaris trail boss 250 2x4. It’s only single cylinder but I found out today the machine had little to no oil or gas and that caused a ton of problems for me to fix now. So how do I get it right?

Quad can turn very tightly to the left but very wide to the right. On inspection, when turning right, the pitman arm hits the EPS controller - it doesn't when turning left. The quad had been rolled (prior owner) and the steering was straightened. I believe that the pitman arm is now slightly offset. Can I disconnect the tie-rods from the pitman arm and then remove and reattach the pitman arm in a more centered position, and then reattach and adjust the tie-rods? Or is the pitman arm not adjustable since there is a grove that it must align with on the EPS? If not the method I suggest, how would a person fix the issue? Would the entire steering system need to be taken apart and reassembled?
Thanks very much!
Phil.
