    Glad you got it sorted out, it looks good and sounds like its running good.

    The clutch basket should just slide off, it's good that the shift drum is turning freely, does it feel like its going in to a gear or just turning freely. With everything together and you shift the gearshift does the linkage turn the shift drum to a gear or do nothing.

    Does the starter work good no dragging or sluggishness, it sound like you have a grounding issue with the starter installed, see if you can track it down, reinstall the battery and relay and leave the starter out and see if it sparks. The starter could be internally grounded.

    Sorry I missed your comment, yes I think your two wires are in the highlighted area.
  5. Gwbarm
    That would certainly do it, im surprised you dindt have gas running out, glad you got it sorted out.

    Sometimes the shifter gets corroded under the rubber boot and doesnt want to move fluidly, and the little metal tab doesnt clear the locking mechanism to make the shifter move, don't know if that's what's happening with yours, but its something to check.

    I was afraid of that, sorry I steered you wrong, the ones I have worked on have been left handed threads, also the manual I looked in said left handed threads, glad you got it out.

    I thought that was a very helpful diagram ,too bad they didn't include the wire colors, I wish I would have had a diagram like that when I was rewiring my yamaha. At least it narrowed down to 3 places.

    Thats what I was afraid of, 24v impact should have taken that off, maybe all were not left handed threads.

    Thanks Mech, I will do that , I have a few loose ends to check out, plug the fan back in, see if I can chase that down, fan runs all the time when key is on, check lights, and see if its charging, that will finish it up, then on to my next project, its going to be interesting.

    They can get weak , but I hate to see you spend the money if yours isn't bad, does your quad have a CDI box, I haven't been able to find a service manual for that engine, if you have one it would tell you the if it has a CDI it should be about .12 OHM on the primary and around 6 on the secondary. If it doesnt have a CDI OHM ratings will be higher.

    I went out and rode the Big Bear again today I had to pull my trailer around to the back of the property, ran flawlessly and pulls like a mule, but I noticed this yesterday after it warms up smoke starts coming out from under the seat, at first I thought it was just oil burning off where I took the exhaust leg saver off, but it should have burned off by now, unless lots of oil got in the pipe, I did soak it heavily when freeing up the engine, and it seems to get worse the more I run it. Then I thought maybe there is a pin hole in the exhaust pipe there but that couldn't be it because it not smoking out the back. So im not sure where it's coming from yet, any thoughts.

    You might double check to make sure it is left handed threads the ones I worked on were but there are so many models out there you never know, but I would think all the engines would be the same. I would think a 24 volt impact would do it, I get most everything off with an 18 volt dewalt but it a big powerful 1/2 inch one. One other thing there is a locking tab on the nut you have to bend up to unlock the nut.

    Update: I sprayed my plastics with rattle can clear engine enamel looked really good, spilled I drop of brake fluid on when I was doing the master cylinder, it took it right off, so not a good choice, I figured engine enamel would be better for fluid spills, but it is not, I guess if you use it on your engine be careful not to let gas leak on it.

    Oh Ok I thought you were talking about the large tube, smaller ones are easier. I had some of the smaller ones also didn't have to replace them just figure out where they went and route them accordingly, and the OEM large hose had a grommet for them to fir into.
  16. Gwbarm
    Your welcome, always glad to do what I can to help.

    Sorry to hear that have you checked the coil for proper resistance, may be weak not getting a clean burn. If your timing was off you should be getting a backfire or at least a weird popping sound, not sure on that engine there should be timing marks where you can check that.
  18. Gwbarm
    Your good to go !
  19. Gwbarm
    Didd you check to see if the switch was working with ohm meter.
  20. Gwbarm
    The clutch adjustment according to service manual, loosen the lock nut, turn to the left until you feel resistance and then turn to the right 1/8 of a turn. Turning to the left loosens clutch and right tightens.

    I got all my fluids changed, went and took it for a ride today, first real ride in who knows how long. It did really good ran flawlessly , good throttle response, powerful, no hesitation, thanks to the new Mikuni, shifted through all the gears good went into reverse perfectly, good front brakes, and surprisingly rear brakes still work, just need a little adjustment. The only problem I had was getting it back out of reverse it did not want to come back out easily, also finding neutral, I knew I had it in neutral but the light wasn't coming back on, came back a little later ,turned on the key and the neutral light was on. I may have to do a little shift linkage adjustment, im going to check it and see if it is in spec. Just curious, any of you with Big Bears have this problem or is this normal for an old machine.

    I did that on mine it kind of works but their was no place to put the smaller vent lines, you can make something or tape them to it. Had to make an adapter to fit tight and glued it in , hose wasn't big enough to go over the connector It worked I ended up cutting it even with the gas tank mount. OEM for mine was not available and so far I haven't been willing to pay 70.00 for the muddy deteriorated one I found on Ebay.

    I have been looking at the manual, this photo might help, it shows the wire routing along the frame but doesnt tell the colors only what they are for, sorry for the poor quality couldn't get it to download the page

    Had to look that engine up. I have never worked on one , should be easy to get that one going, looks like a Briggs clone. Those engines are pretty easy to get going. I work on a lot of Briggs and Kholers. Hopefully the replacement carb works. 110cc that about 8 hp, compression is good.

    Thanks Mech! I haven't seen too many of those, nice to have the manual.
