Hi all, from Virginia here. This winter I bought a old Atv to tinker with and have really enjoyed it. Thanks for this forum.

So what atv did you buy? Wealth of knowledge in this group.

Congratulations, welcome to the group. They have lots of manuals here for free. Get you some shop manuals for each one. The manuals and this group should help you out with just about anything.

Yeah I agree Gw.. People are just people and all have their own concerns for sure, but it still seems strange that there aren't any better candidates putting their hand up or being put forward. I don't understand how that can happen.

Democracy should in theory ensure that the best man wins.. Surely there must be better candidates, so why aren't they being pushed forwards ? How can there not be some better man or woman in a country of that size ?

Come on Johniii and Quad, explain that to me..  If you guys can see what's wrong with the candidates, why can't anyone else see it, and why aren't you or some other dissatisfied patriot putting their hand up ? And I have to ask, are either of you guys paid up members of either of the parties, do you attend the rallies, do you campaign or nominate someone better ?

I'd like to hear. I've asked earlier how it comes to this, and you both have plenty of criticism of the candidates, but you don't explain how it is they are the candidates.

 

 

Jacinda kept the Māori in check, closing your little island island off from outsiders was brilliant, we tried that here and you called us racist. You know everything, google is your friend, look up how the process goes. I'm neither left or right and not looking to sit here and read your post, stop acting like you are serious. I see you people every day clowning on USA.

Fellas fellas, why are we talking about politics? This is a ATV form? Not a controversial post on Facebook…

 

Thank you.

"Whether you want to believe it or not,  Biden  is  respected  internationally and  tRump is viewed as an  incompetent laughing stock and a threat to  your "democracy".".

You're right again Gw.. Trumps seen as a madman that's a threat to world peace. I'm amazed that these guys can't see he's a threat to their country's peace.

That video wasn't news. It was biased commentators claiming to know what Biden was thinking, claiming to know he was confused. For all I know he might have been wondering if it was ok to take a piss on the wheel of air force one. He had his wife with him because he's a nice guy in a good relationship. He might be getting feeble physically, but his character is a far better bet that Trumps.

Every time I see Trump he's spewing vitriol and promulgating nationalist views. He's a threat to world peace, the enviroment, and to most of the people of the world.

Again though, I have to ask, what's happened to America that these two are the only candidates seen as leaders ? How does a country get so spiritually decrepit that they can't find better candidates than that ? Where are America's values that it comes to this ?

It's a worry.. Seriously guys..  Looking from the outside, this is just sad and worrying to see. America is looking far more demented than Biden, and even more morally bereft than Trump...  Seriously

Who respects trump or biden? Nobody internationally. Your leader says alot about the people who voted them in as well, but your leaders are not l players in the world theater. Back to quads.

If Trump would have just won his second term, he’d be done at the end of the year, and we’d have fresh candidates on both sides. We’re here because the covid/paper ballot fiasco put an old politician into office in the middle of everything…lol. 1/2 joking of course.

4 more years and we get fresh blood on both sides unless the Dems figure out how to push Biden to the side at the last minute, which I’m not sure can’t still happen. 

He's  too crass to be President.  Biden's mind won't last 4 more years. Such a dilemma.

"quadmaniac and johnii  mistake bullshit and bluster for strength..  In fact they are signs of weakness. tRump  would be a gift to  Xi, Putin and Kim.
All they have to do  is stroke his ego and that narcissist wsill give them  everything they want.".

Yup.. That's a bully. Insecure, fearful, hate filled, bigoted.. No integrity, (being wholeness..) He's a fragmented man, full of flaws.. 

Joe at least has his integrity. He is a man. A whole man. A man that knows how hard life can be for people, a man with understanding.

Quad.. Trumps ego is a threat to world peace.

You keep insisting I'm for Trump. I have stated neither is a good choice . You keep going on about joe but his cognitive ability is getting worse. He isn't a whole man by any means.Trump is going to sink the republican party, so there's that. Two buffoons. I know what the words mean, maybe you look it up.

Weak Johniii? I thought you said they were dictators.

China's now doing what America has been doing for the last century, offering financial incentives to get what it want's in foreign countries, investing in countries it sees some benefit in having close relationships with. If you think that China's doing that as a result of American leadership, and more particularly some recent spate of your local politics, you need to get some education about China's long term plans they have been implementing for the last thirty years at least. New Zealand finds China far easier to work with  and less protectionist regarding trade than America ever was. Trumps isolationist policies aren't going to advantage America on the world stage like you seem to think they will.

It's a big world Johniii, and it extends well past America's borders. Trumps blustering on the world stage doesn't do him or America any credit, Biden's 

Who said it doesn't extend past the borders? It is because of the weak president trying to appease everyone. You can blame trump all you want but  Biden's the big guy now. Ne2 Zealand playing games. I bet the Māori are even more terrified of the Chinese than all of the wyt population. You will bow down to China, enjoy the rice. I prefer to live free from China's control. Like I said,trump or biden aren't the answers.

Now you're just generalising about leaders in general Johniii.

 

But am I wrong? I don't care for either man. We may end up with an Ardern or a Justin, weak leadership. Bowing down to China isn't an option . China is the next world leader, hope you enjoy the show. Thank a progressive!!

Not defending trump but your leaders are just as bad as ours.

Let's get back to the coming election and the  possible candidates  and choices.  This  coming one will show whether the extreme right will  take over or if the country will start to  come back to the middle of the road it began veering away from  from  the days of Reaganomics.

Why do you want to discuss our up coming election? Being a canuck your opinion is noted and discarded. Your leadership has dropped the ball. Justin and Jacinda,  dictators from hell. Go Lions.

Biden vs Trump, more of the same bullcrap. It's time to move on past these guys. China will take Taiwan back, buying up the farmland here, open borders. What a mess.

Figure it out??

Rzr has been sitting unused inside garage for about 18 months. Engine started and run about 15 min every 1 or 2 months.  Never any problem starting or running. This week took it out of town to ride for a day. Loaded, unloaded with no problems. After unloading went trailing. After about a 1/2 mile we went down a small kill and started up another hill and engine died. Restarted many times and died each time after only free seconds. Brought it home and started several times with same outcome.  Changed to fresh fuel and started it.  Lasted about 90 seconds (at idle) and died. So we started it several times and revved the engine up and it continued to run (while still revved up) each time until we dropped it back to idle and it died each time. HELP! Please.

You figure it out?

Its OK in a bind, but long term I go with the dielectric. It's silicone vs petroleum jelly.

You mean I should let the mud stay long? Or the chemicals?

I will try the ArmorAll  preservative on the plastics, and keep the Wizards metal polish ro for the other parts.

 

How should I keep the harness and connector protected from mud/water?

Dielectric greases work the best on connectors.  Vaseline isn't good for plastic connectors, over time they make the plastic brittle. 

Are you saying starter motor is stuck? Did you try tapping on it with a hammer?  I believe that's it in the picture. Easy access, looks like you could take it off easily. I would start by making sure both motors turn over easily. 

Great news. If you go to manuals lib.com they have the manual. Good to have a copy.

No problem, good luck!!

Check this out. Free manuals are online. Hope this helps.

Sounds like air in the cooling system. The thermostat should be changed if your doing the cooling system.
