Clean the carb.. float is stuck

I agree with everyone above, give it another cleaning.

Also I am not sure if the 2000 is gravity fed or not but make sure you have the fuel turned off when the quad is sitting. And if you have snorkels sometimes (vary rare) when transporting the ATV there is a sort a vacuum on the carb and it can draw excess gas into the carb and leak past the rings.

      I have a 2009 Honda Rancher TRX420FA with shifting problems.
      Usually it shifts ok when cold but after couple minutes it will stop shifting with no codes.
      The 1st shift clutch oil pressure when in first gear is 74psi. The 2nd shift clutch oil pressure when in second gear is 74psi.
      The 1st shift clutch oil pressure when in neutral is zero. The problem is when the tranny is in neutral the 2nd shift clutch pressure starts around 10-15psi and builds to 20psi. Is this normal?

      Здравствуйте, нужна помощь по ремонту багги Arctic Cat 700 EFI, пропала искра, датчик коленвала импульс есть, Самодиагностика показывает две ошибки AC99,AC96. все провода проверил на целостность, все датчики блоком определяются, не включается топливный насос. Провода от ECU до реле насоса и от реле до насоса исправны. Поставил подменный ECU, ничего не изменилось.

      Good morning, I am new to the forum. I'm 75 years old and love getting ATVs back to usable condition. I particularly like the 2006-2009 Arctic Cat 250 Utility. I currently own 6. The 2006 I am working on only has reverse and low gear. The "drive shaft" in the transmission is completely stripped where the high gear would mesh. Has anyone on here replaced the shaft. I'm told I have to split the case. I was hoping that someone on here could let me know how hard it will be. I already have it stripped down to where the shaft coming in from the clutch side is the only thing left. I was hoping I could just remove the driven clutch and drive it out from there. Directions say different. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

      Hi all,
      Looking for some help on a starter/bendix issue. Can Am outlander 450 2017. While cranking to start, the starter spins and engages into the ring gear. After a few seconds the bendix retracts while still spinning and there is no damaged teeth on the drive pulley.
