I have just bought this and don't have any problems but the idle is really high then it is in neutral and i don't know where the idle adjustment is. I would also like to know what kind of oil i should put in this ATV because he gave me a oil filter so i could change the oil and i forgot what oil he told me to use.

There should be an idle adjustment screw or rod to turn on the carb. Check your choke also.

You can use any 4 stroke atv oil or go to any atv dealer and they can sell you some. I use 4 stroke Valvoline oil.

* Adjusted your thread title.

i looked and saw on the cap it says 10W40 so ill get some of that.

you wouldn't by chance know where the idle screw is. I have check the choke

Make sure you get oil for wet clutches.

There should be a plastic knob coming out from the left side of the carb, that should be your idle adjustment. You may also want to try adjusting the fuel screw which is located on the underside of the carb toward the front. If neither of those helps or the machine still doesn't run right, you need to start checking for air leaks by spraying carb cleaner around the intake area of the motor.

      Hello All
      I'm kinda new to ATVs. I just bought a 1987 Suzuki quad runner 230 Dual Range. I'm having a problem finding info on it. It's very clean, only 2.800 miles. The front wheels are only 30 in.center to center. I was thinking about adding wheel spacers to give it more stability. I realize the added stress on ball joints and bearings. I'm wondering if there are any other concerns? Any input is greatly appreciated!

      1st problem, Does anyone know where I can find a stock carb for my Timberwolf, I have tried two different aftermarket carbs and they both suck. The machine runs great until it gets good and warm, then it keeps stalling unless I feather the throttle. it will even stall while I'm trying to go from 1st to reverse or vise versa. I took it to a buddy of mine who is a bike mechanic for years, and he told me try to find a factory carb. When I look online from dealers it says "NOT AVAILABLE" anyone have any suggestions ?
       
      2nd, The small tab on the rear axle for towing is to short for even pulling my small yard trailer, I can't even turn a little bit and hit hits. I tried making an extension which worked great as far as length, but it bends the tab and then the extension drags the ground. I have an idea of what to do to fix it, but wanted to see if anyone else has had this problem and see how you solved it.

      Does anyone have a recommendation of a really Heavy Duty ATV cover. I have bought several and they do keep the water off somewhat, but they are very thin and do not contour with the shape very well and water pools up in the rack louvers. I think i may be looking for a heavy canvas one, if anyone has a recommendation it would be greatly appreciated.
