The Kawasaki is a 1989 Bayou 220. Neutral has been found, by pulling the recoil starter, engine turned over the wheels did not turn, so my next step is to put a battery in and see what happens. Oil is half way up the sight glass. The concern I have is the throttle lever is not moving. Suggestions please?????

What Gw says..

Try pulling on the throttle cable where it goes into the carb at the side..  It should pull out about twenty mills if the butterfly is free, if it's seized then it won't move more than about two mills. If the butterfly is free, then it's the cable or in the hand-piece. Try pulling the cable out at the hand piece, if it pulls out about twenty mills then it's the hand piece seized. if it doesn't pull out there its a seized cable.

      2005 Bruin 350cc Oil pumping into airbox
      By BruceG
      Hi guys. I have a problem where the quad will start and run well for about 5 minutes and then it dies. On inspection the airbox has oil in it (quite a lot). The oil is pumping through the cylinder head breather hose. This problem first happened suddenly. I have since done the top end including, piston, gaskets, rings and valves. I have also done the carb (not that I thought that this was the problem). The compression seems normal. The only thing that I can think of, is that I did not grind the valves well enough. Anyone experienced this? If so, how did you fix it? Any other thoughts?

      Have you ever purchased a quad from an impound auction?
      By DarkRider
      This is something I'm extremely curious about. Has anyone ever attempted to buy a quad (or any other vehicle) from an impound lot? I've always wondered if this could be a bargain, or a waste of time. Google searches do turn up some helpful results. Looks like the state of NJ holds auctions online which I'd be a bit hesitant about.
       
      My online searches haven't really turned up any results of anyone buying an ATV this way. I'd be really curious if anyone tried this, or knows someone who has. I've actually found a couple pages with online auctions for my state, but none had ATVs.
