I posted on 6/17 in response to someone looking for a manual on where to get one for a ‘02 LT-F500F. As I don’t yet know how to navigate this forum, I can’t tell if it helped. I’ve had the quad now for about a month. I’ve yet to do a front to back top to bottom maintenance overhaul. I have all the fluids etc, just waiting for a time slot. So, here’s a question. I just in the last two days really put it to the test as far as towing. I had a 60 gal tank sprayer, grinding up and down some hilly terrain around my house, trying to kill the last of the grass here in the foothills of central California. I was in 4x4, in low range and on the down hill runs, I’d hear an occasional loud “ clank”. Is this normal? Lastly, I’ll be rebuilding the carb, as it doesn’t like to idle, and it was pretty grumpy going uphill as to a bit of surging and just not being smooth. Any hints on this carb? I’ve got the kit, I’m real comfortable with tackling a new to me carb for a rebuild, but am always happy for pointers from those who have been there before.

Thanks,

Roy
