2001 Yamaha Blaster wont start


Talon

Recommended Posts

i was out riding and i heard a sound that was like a snap and my bike shut off and wouldn't start back up and the only thing that i can visually find wrong is there is a crack in the exhaust. would the crack in the exhaust keep it from starting?? or any other ideas of what it might be

wen u turn the key is the starter trying to turn the engine over or u hear nothing...wat year is the blaster? is it ridden hard? was it like a chain snapping noise? or was it a glunk? has it been serviced lately? also check the oil and tell me if it is black and if it has any metal shavings or anything in it? and if it is full?

its a kick start. but when i kick it it sounds like it wants to turn over. before it would start on the first or second kick each time. i think it an 2001. its been rode fairly easy. kind of like a tree branch snapping. new oil and plug but thats about it. i'll try to get around to draining it tommorrow and check it but it is full i did check that

an engine needs 3 things to start... fuel, air, and spark... so check to see if you have spark and getting fuel... if you have both then i would check your reeds for damage, do a compression test, and a case pressure test... could you tell where the snap sound came from?

there no fuel getting to the spark. reeds look good compression is good. how do i do a case pressure test??? no couldnt tell where the snap came from. could of just been a branch that i ran over right when it died but im not sure

Ok,,,,,So you say you were going over some logs.....???? How about your Float in the Carb got stuck.....You ran your Bowl out of Fuel.....To check this....Turn the Screw at the bottom of the Carb counterclockwise.....if there is fuel in there it will run out......

no i checked and cleaned the carb and its fine

      should i run a thicker oil in a older quad because it make a little more noise than usual 
    • By Suzukiquad
      Hi, I have been around everything with a motor since I was little, and finally purchased more to get my husband, and kids involved. I have 4 quads I will be searching around for information on. I have two 2002 Suzuki LT80K quads, a 1997 Yamaha Timberwolf 250, and a 1996 Kawasaki Bayou 220. I have had different ones throughout the years, and plan on buying another Yamaha Banshee. I plan on trying to learn more about all of them, so I can customize some of them. I know nothing about them besides how to race them, my dad always took care of the rest, but figured it was time for me to learn.

      Hello everyone, I just picked up an 02 LT-F250F the other day and have been in the process of tearing it down to fix some stuff- one of which was the cylinder base gasket leaking like a sieve. Well, I know why that is now, and I also discovered that someone had been in there before. I didn't take pictures, but it looks like it was probably run low on oil at some point, the cam journals and the "bearings" (for lack of a better term) in the head and the valve cover are totally wiped out, very deep grooves.  From what I know it's very difficult to repair aluminum in this way, so I'm trying to figure out where to go next.
       
      1. Have someone grind down the head and valve cover and fit actual bearings in since the aluminum is screwed, and have the cam ground down to match.  I have no idea what this would cost.
      2. Buy a replacement head+cam+valve cover.
       
      #1 I was hoping someone might have some advice on, but #2 seems like it'll (probably) be the more cost effective option.  However I'm running into some difficulty, it seems like the 2001 and 2002 models specifically use a different head part number,  11100-19B10, instead of  11100-19B01 like for all earlier models.  What exactly is the difference between them? There are obviously far more of the earlier heads because it ran for over 10 years.  Are they actually interchangeable? I've also noticed there are heads from the LT250EF that has 4 valve heads but also otherwise look identical.  Would those work as well possibly?  I'd like to not have to drop $500 on machine work or new heads on a $1300 quad that I'm already putting a bunch of new parts on.  Oh, and it has a new piston and the cylinder itself looks pretty good too, as I said someone was in here before me.
       
      Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. I'll post pics of the carnage tomorrow.

      I have a 2016 Arctic Cat 500 and recently noticed some oil leaking on the engine block to the right of the oil filter. It's near two metal lines going in and out of the engine block. I think one of the lines is called an engine oil line. I have a photo I'm going to try and attach. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I don't want to start tearing into the engine if I don't have to. I think maybe a gasket or something blew around one of these lines. The ATV runs fine otherwise. Doesn't overheat or anything.
