2003 Yamaha Beartracker Carb Help


YJ93

Recommended Posts

I have an 03 250 beartracker that ran great before stored for the winter. I put the battery in yesterday pulled the choke pumped the gas it started right up. Then it stalled out and wouldn't start no matter what I did. I pulled the plug thinking it was flooded and it was dry. I gave it a shot of starter fluid in the air box and it started up and run until the fluid burned out. I did this a couple times until it ran on its own. It ran great but the gas poured out the over flow tube while it was running so I shut it off. The gas contimued to run out the tube while off. It didn't stop leaking gas until I turned the fuel valve off. This morning I turned the gas valve back on and the gas started pouring out again without even being started. I'm thinking something is stuck open in the carb and I'm just hoping someone might know what it is before I tear into it. Thanks for any help.

I had the same problem on a Kodiak 450 I used to own. The issue was that after the quad sat for a bit, the float pin became corroded and stuck, causing the float to get stuck up, cutting off the fuel. Take the carb bowl off and see if that float moves freely.

      Have a 1998 AC 300 2x4, Just installed a new carburetor. Engine starts easy but the choke RPMs are very hi and take along time (5-10 mins when cold out). After engine has warmed up choke releases and it idles and runs fine., It does no have an electric choke. The choke lever is never used and it seems like an auto choke? Long story short, how can I lower the choke rpm levels?
       
      Also, carb came with a spare145 jet, not 100% sure what is installed. Could this impact choke RPMs?
       
       
      Any help and information greatly appreciated.

      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.

      2022 Sector 550, 414 miles on it and the gas gauge reads empty.  I topped off the gas and it didn't change.
      There is no fuse that I could find.  No access at the gauge cluster.
      Wiring on the top of the tank looks good, properly connected.
      Could the sending unit in the tank be stuck or broken?
      Has anybody removed the tank lid?  Any tricks?  
      Any other ideas?
      Thanks for any help,
      Clyde

      I just bought two 2002 Suzuki LT80K. Do I need to mix the gas or use straight unleaded?
