Looking for a used Kawasaki 300 drive clutch for parts. Let me know what ya got!! Anyone out there have one willing to part with?
thank you for your consideration..

Thank you all for the replies and info.

I removed the breather hose and moved the diaphragm in the carb with my finger. The diaphragm would only move up about 3/4 of the way.  The spring had kinked at the top where it sets in the top cover. Which wouldn't allow for full throttle.  I removed the cover and repositioned the spring, this allowed the diaphragm to move up its full span.  I also changed the plug and adjusted the valves as suggested.  You guys are awesome. The machine runs like new.   Thank you

So if you put it straight into second gear.  would it go faster or start struggling even earlier ?

It’s automatic, belt driven, goes same speed no matter what I do, even adding some choke. But the belt switch doesn’t work, using an ohm meter no reading on or off… so it must be in constant limp mode?

Hello all, I have a Kawasaki that will idle perfect but won’t go over 10 mph.

Reset limp mode, checked belt sensor, it will go into 4 wheel drive but won’t rev up more than 2500 rpm’s. I have no lights blinking.

Ran perfect for months until I let it idle while cutting limbs on the trails. 
Had a new carb, air filter and gas, just won’t rev up.  
Assistance would be appreciated..

tks 
 

I cleaned the belt switch with Electromotive Cleaner and still no change, get no reading with an ohm meter when I move the switch... I can't find a switch without buying the complete clutch cover. so can I jump the switch to see if that's the problem, would that affect anything if I jump the switch?  Thank you for all your assistance.

It sounds kind of like a fuel restriction, but because of your description of how it happened, im not sure, it didn't get too hot while idling did it, they are air cooled an need a good amount of air flow to keep cool, but if it just happened its not that hot so maybe not. You could replace the plug like Mech suggested and maybe check for proper fuel flow, and maybe do a compression test, while you have the plug out. Just grabbing at straws here, more information as to how it runs would be helpful.

Checked the fuel flow and its ok..

Might pay to try a new spark plug before spending too much more money.

And can you describe what it actually does when it won't go over 2500.. does it start killing and then restarting the engine, or does it slowly fade out of power, does opening the throttle faster or slower, or more or less make any difference, does it do it in neutral or only in gears and under a load ?

And if you download a service manual and have a look it will tell you how to check for trouble codes.. They are something you should check for.

it accelerates to 2500 and that's it.. idles perfect. no spit or spudder

When you get to 2200 RPMs in neutral does it spit and sputter and die or what happens.

No runs move no spit or spudder...

I tested the belt switch with voltmeter, on ohms across switch I get no change when move the switch on and off. Could this be the problem?

I thought it was the carb needle not completely engaging (up and down) but i was wrong,  checking the spark arrestor to see if its clogged, its a 2008 never been cleaned.  Gonna check the valves, air box filter which is new, checking the coil also...it idles perfect, but when i put it in gear won't go over 10 mph, will rev to 2200 rpms not any higher in neutral. doesnt miss or shudder.

Hey! Good Afternoon All,

Does anyone know the size of the jam nuts that secure the rear brake drum on the axle. (Chain Drive)

I think it 50mm, looks to be close to 2 inches...

Trying to fine a wrench to fit them. will the Kawasaki axle wrenches work.

That's for your assistance...

Thank you

Found the parts on EBay.. 

prices not that bad..

I'm in need of a stator cover and starter idler gear/shaft.

Anyone have these parts available? 
thanks 

Thanks all.

I’ll try and see what works..

Traded for a 1985 Suzuki LT250 with thick green paint that's peeling and cracking.

Want to remove all the the paint and start fresh.

Anyone know of something that's effective and won't hurt the plastic.

Appears to have multiple coats.

Any help will be appreciated...
