Wow that looks great! You have to be skilled to do that work. Awesome stuff right there, ride safe.

@mikeexplorer i was looking at the drone you recommend and it looks great. I figured it would be a good time to buy and learn. Unfortunately it wont ship here until April 24th to May 1st 😢.

Its amazing how the city looks. Streets are empty! When a car comes down the block me and the few that are on site say to each other oh look a car ! Lol.

No difference. Amazon has one. Caltric Agm Battery for Kawasaki Bayou 220 Klf220A Kl-F220A 1992-2002 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01DGLSMSQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_vN-HEb9B1G7BD

Yes sir keep us posted and please ask any questions you may have! We will be more then happy to answer to the best we can! good luck !

We will push through, thats for sure. My kids are getting a little nuts but we are finding ways to keep them busy/happy and some funny stuff. On a side note i have to say the time spent at home has been priceless. I really am enjoying time with the family and the wife! Yes i said wife!!! We have been having a good time laughing, joking and some binge watching (Ray Donovan btw). We took a look back at photos of out 17 year marriage and laugh how corny we were. But its almost like a reset for a minute. Im happy and sad at the same time!

Nice! Great time for a project! What is it, year and any pics ?

So my job finally decided to shut down on Tuesday based on the government issued emergency declaration. I spent Monday and Tuesday shutting the project down, laying guys off and setting up there unemployment. I was instructed to send all air and gas back and completely lock the place down. So this was all done by Wednesday and i stayed on site until today to make sure everything was proper. The men thanked me as they were very concerned about the spread of this and it felt good knowing they were happy to have a few paid weeks off. So i get an email today stating that my job is now considered essential work because some as***** engineers decided to write a letter stating that the work should go forward due to the structural concerns (none) and we should remain open! What a bunch of corporate dicks!!! Its a high profile job and thats the only reason this is happening!! The unions aren't stepping in to my disbelief. So Monday we return to work while this thing peaks!! Sad, very sad.

Personally if i broke down and spent the money on a cdi it damn well better be the right one! Plug and play...... what year is your machine and what did you buy? Oem or aftermarket? Id it possible they sent you or you ordered the wrong part? The last thing one would want to do is start chopping up a harness after spending money on a cdi.

Outstanding!

It could be a bad rectifier also once it gets warmed up. Very possible.

I cant see fuel getting in that vacuum line any other way then a bad fuel pump. double check your air/fuel screw as well.

@Amboyjim take a look at your initial post/topic. I responded to it and im sure others will. It keeps it easier to track that way.

Blown head gasket usually will not kick back fuel into the air box like that. It's usually contained to the cylinder head and very easy to hear. BUT a compression test definitely could not hurt!

Great stuff! Got a little bit of everything in there!! ATV'S demolition derby and some dirt bike action as well!!! Love the satellite station as well. Was that a drone shot ?

Nice work brother. Someone else will use this information down the road! Great stuff, ride safe.

Hey @Steven Urban welcome to Quadcrazy. The second part you show in the picture is your starter circuit relay. It all starts from your neutral safety switch. It looks like its in bad shape but they still work in that condition. Anyway you should have 4 wires going into it. Light green, brown and two black ones. Here's how it works: the green wire runs down to the neutral safety switch on the left side of the engine right above the shifter. The brown wire is a 12v positive wire. The two black wires are what completes the start circuit when touched together. Here is where to start: take a jumper wire and jump the two black wires on the relay together and hit the start button. (Make sure the atv is in neutral) and see if it cranks. if so thats good. After that; Take a tester and see if you have 12v+ on the brown wire at the relay. If so then thats good. Now the green wire is simply a ground thats made when the atv is in neutral. That green wire has a device inside the engine that when clicked into neutral it grounds the green wire. So in essence the 12v brown on the relay and the green (ground) when put in neutral energizes the relay and brings the two black wires together and also brings on the neutral light. If you have no ground from the green wire then put a jumper from green wire on the realy to a good ground. If that works then the neutral safety switch is bad. That starter circuit relay is an easy find if need be. Do some of these test first and lets see what you get. https://www.ebay.com/itm/153882535043

Hey @Amboyjim welcome to Quadcrazy! Check the diaphragm on the fuel pump. If the diaphragm is bad and gets a hole in it the fuel gets sucked into the carburetor via the vacuum line and floods the engine and winds up getting kicked back into the air box. Also when you set the air fuel screw after the carburetor rebuild did you set it properly?

True but you gained a ton of knowledge and you cant put a price on that! Now you will be able to tear into another one down the road and know whats what. You don't forget things like that. It may take a minute or two to jog your memory but it will come back to you should you ever take another one apart.

Looks like you are strolling down memory lane tonight! Good way to close out topics though!

Another blast from the past! I too love working on things but love it more when you get paid!!

Dam @JacobSlabach this was a blast from the past post. $3200 was a good price for that bike.

Welcome to Quadcrazy! Nice machine! What year ?

Maybe but if the engine was running fine other then smoke and all you did were valve seals im a little stumped by the chain just binding up. That only happens when you are 180 out and a collision happens or no oil. Its just odd to me.
