Hey I have just recently purchased a 1985 Yamaha moto 4 200 and found that the air filter case is not only busted open but also missing the filter and element. I have searched for these parts online and have yet to find any out there for sale. I was wondering if there is a way to make my own air filter case with filter or some way to go about fixing this problem. Any help would be much appreciated thank you . Can post pictures if need to

Depending on how bad the outer casing is beat up, plastic jb weld will work just fine and give you a strong fix. I have a 1986 Yamaha moto 4 200 and when I bought it, it had cracks, it was beat, missing the element, the filter and the back cap. I repaired the cracks with jb weld, and I bought a 2 1/2 inch pipe to 2 inch pipe conversion for 4 dollars to replace the element, with this I chopped it down to shorten it tp about two inches long, and jb welded that on over the hole to the carb. With that I bought a 20 dollar filter from ebay. It was a 50 mm or 2 inch flange uni airfilter which fits nicely over the end of the conversion pipe. For the back I used some spare plastic laying around, cut it shape, used silicone as a seal and used some screws I had.

Hope this helps

you can make your own using a milk jug and old inner tube- just make sure when done it can take air in and it goes through the filter. plus the entire system is closed so only the air going to the card come from the filter

      Fixing for a friend. Atv was at a different friends house to be fixed and he rebuilt the carb and had it running nice, then it shut off and no more. He replaced the key and the coil.
       
      So he got busy, so I am helping, I checked the wiring from the stator to the cdi, and from the cdi to the coil. All is good. I checked resistance on the pickup coil, good, and on the source coil, open. I buy a new stator (China) and the 4 prong plug only has 3 wires in it while mine has all 4. I checked resistance in the source coil and it's in the 300's. I pulled one of the old pickup wires out of the old stator and wire it in the new one. Still no spark.
       
      Why do the wires differ, I checked the VIN again and it's "J" for the year and I got a 1988 stator. Please help!

      Hi everyone, first and foremost, I want to thank everyone for all the help I've received. I am so glad I found this community. I also wanna apologize if I'm spamming the forum, I come up with questions as I go, I guess lol. So when I got my Recon, the air box was missing the lid, held together by zip ties, and the filter was ripped and nasty. I have since ordered a new air box assembly. It comes with everything: the box,  lid, and filter ( the insert and the foam), and all the hardware necessary. This is the first time I've seen a metal filter inside a foam filter lol. However, my question is, I have read that you have to oil these filters? Every time I read it, it was always skimmed over, and I could not remember where I had read it. Is there a certain oil needed for this? Is the filter washable and reusable? Do I just stick the filter in oil, lol? Sorry if it sounds like a dumb question. Thanks in advance, y'all!
