2000 quadmaster miss firing


recniz

Recommended Posts

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?

      Hey everybody,
       
      My proficiency is with Hondas and Yamahas make me see RED!
       
      This bike is my brother in law's, it has 1199 miles on it and went from running great to dead with no start. Every once and a while it will start and sputter for 2 seconds. It is extremely sporadic when it fires but never runs for longer than 3 seconds. 
       
      Here is where we sit:
      Brand New Fully Charged battery
      Carb was cleaned with air hose and carb cleaner then into the ultrasonic cleaner with Aircraft aluminum cleaner
      New Shindy Carb kit (made in Japan version)
      Cleaned out petcock and gas tank
      New 93 Non Ethanol Gas
      New Spark Plug
       
      It gets a spark through the spark test light every time
      Bluish white spark
      When holding the spark plug 1/4" - 3/8" away from head it will jump and spark to the head
      Good Compression
       
      Here are the readings:
       
      Pickup Coil 519 Ohms (range 459-561)
      Charging Coil 266 Ohms (range 270-330)
      Lighting Coil 0.700 (range 0.702-0.858)
      Spark plug Cap 10.58 Ohms (10kohms
      Ignition Coil Primary Coil 0.5 ohms (range 0.18-0.28 ohms)
      Ignition Coil Secondary Coil 8.20 kOhms (range 6.32-9.48 kOhms)
       
      Would y'all think stator and pick up coil, rectifier or CDI are the culprit?

      I just saw a video on TikTok where some guy took the rear end off an ATV and bolted on a roto tiller in place of rear wheels. I wish i saved that video to post here....good thing it was 4 wheel drive...lol but, it seemed to work.
      I'm not sure how he made it bolt on to the drive....

      Hi Guys!

      New member and could really use your advice. I would have to believe this has been an issue for others but a search here came up with nothing......? (Probably me not doing search correctly)
       
      I have an 87 Big Bear 350 YFM350FWT
      The OEM Mikuni BTM carb is shot and would rather replace than rebuild.
      It is no longer made and I have had good luck with NICHE carbs so I ordered a #K-CRB-0006 This was what they said was replacement when ordered. This Carb only uses 1 Throttle cable. The Slide is linked so it uses one. (OEM had 2nd cable coming through top to move slide)
       
      Problem is when I ordered a replacement Cable from NICHE (#C-CBL-0061) the Cable wire is a little short, not allowing Throttle to return all the way down to Idle position. I called NICHE and they are at a loss. Haven't gotten back to me after 2+ weeks.
       
      What would you recommend other than a carb rebuild?
      Can I just use 1 of the OEM cables (It is the right length) and snip/disconnect the other that went to top of Carb for Slide?
      Or ??
       
      Thanks in advance for any advice you have!!
       
      Dave
