1992 Kawasaki Bayou 300 4x4 - Carb Probs


Recommended Posts

Hello, I have a 92 bayou 300 with carb problems.

I believe the float is stuck as each time I try to start it fuel flows out the overflow on the bowl.

I have never rebuilt a carb before, but I am mechanically inclined to give it a try.

I can buy a complete rebuild kit with new floats seats, gaskets etc. for 45.00 or I can get a new direct fit carb for 150.00.

can anyone provide me rebuild instructions or would I be better off with a new carb.

machine ran fine for a couple of years and then I stored it with gas (stupid) and a bad petcock for a few months, since I have replaced the petcock and need to get the carb fixed.

This is a machine I use for bow hunting ( not as young as I used to be) to get me and my gear and DEER out of the timber during archery season and throughout the summer prepping for the up coming season.

Any help would be great....

the carb rebuild is nothing really, clean, blow out carb with air, and replace parts. but it can take a couple times to get it right (cleaning). if you can spare the extra 100$, i would almost go that route because less time consuming and no real friggin around. you might even get lucky just cleaning the carb and not using the kit if everything is cleaned well ...

      I generally use Non Ethynol fuel in all my small engines. I just got back from the gas station and that fuel has really increased in price since last year, I will continue to use it, even though its north of 1.00 a gallon more. That seems minor compared to cleaning and repairing carbs every year. 
      I was just curious as to what others are doing in regard to gas in their quads, i know a lot of the newer ones are fuel injected which shouldnt pose a problem, but i have had lots of problems with rust and jell forming in carbs when using ethynol fuel.

      Hi, I am having issues with my TRX350D fuel pump.  It suddenly stopped running so I have replaced all the fuses and cleaned all the terminals.  I have fitted a new pump, fuel cut-off relay and rectifier.  Still nothing!!  The pump runs when attached to a battery.  The engine will start on the choke and the filter fills with fuel but it will  not rev and dies when the choke is closed. I have power to the relay but nothing at the pump black/white wire when cranking the engine.  Any ideas where to go from here would be very much appreciated!!

      Wiring shows White and Brown to solenoid blades. Then a black wire from starter circuit relay to solenoid. I am confused,  where is that black wire supposed to connect?
      Thanks for any help
