Ok guys and gals it's finally time to ask for some help with a mid to high rpm miss fire I'm having on my 2000 quadmaster which causes it to backfire bad and wont allow it to rev past 3000 as per what my timing light is telling me. For the past 2 weeks I've been trouble shooting this issue and for the life of me I cant figure out whats wrong. Here's a little background to what I've done so far.

1. Cleaned and rebuilt carb all jets and settings are in spec.

2. Checked compression and valve lash a

3. battery voltage stays steady at around 13.8v

4. Ohms and peak voltage tested everything as per the oem service manual and no problems found

5. Removed stator cover and found no physical damage to stator or pick up coil or magnets

6. Bought a new ignition coil and spark plug plus used cdi

7. Checked all wiring for damage and cleaned grounds

8. Disconnected rectifier and stator to eliminate that as possible cause

9. jumped power and ground direct to cdi

I know Is an ignition miss because I purchased a inline spark tester so I could physically watch the ignition system in action. It starts and idles smooth with a consistent flash from the spark tester but as soon as i try to rev it up I can see the spark tester skip and my quad just backfires and wont rev past around 3000.

Ok any ideas?

      As the title says, I've got a crankcase full of fuel / oil to deal with and figure I'll just start from the top and move through the system.  Going to start with a rebuild of the petcock and then the carb if the problem isn't fixed with the petcock rebuild.  I figure I'll go with a Moose kit unless others with experience recommend another brand (All Balls, etc.)
      Any suggestions?  Thanks in advance.

      I was looking to buy a new ATV. 
      I was debating between Polaris sportsman 450 and Honda rancher.
      Polaris it a bit cheaper.
      But can you tell me which one will have more demand on the used market? Which one will keep it's value better?

      What is the best way to remove the carb on a 2000 quadmaster 500? Does the gas tank need to come off first?
