  1. You are going to have to take the carb apart and clean it wit compressed air to make sure every fine particle of dirt is out. I worked on one all afternoon tearing it apart 4 times before I got it to work right. As for it accelerating when you close the choke means it is sucking air from somewhere and then stalling out. Make sure you are not missing any parts when you put it back together. Try to get a manual if you can.

  2. My quess is your battery is not putting out 12 volts or more. With a muiltimeter and switched on volts you can check your battery red probe on positive black probe negative Tun ignition switch on and check soleniod with red probe with black probe on negative post of battery, Go to post on starter with red probe and check. Make sure the starter button is pushed in when checking at starter.

  3. I had the same thing happen with my 2004 Artic Cat and it was in the top of the steering column. It was just below were the wires came out of the shield and the top of the steering stem. Look carefully at each wire because at first it was are to see but the more fuses I blew the bigger the black spot. Mine would blow when I turned my steering to the right.

  4. Let's start at the tank shut off the petcock under the gas tank and remove the gas line that goes into the carb. With the line removed and a container at the end of the line open the petcock to make sure the gas is coming out of the bottom of the tank. If it is then put the line back on the carb. and go to the bottom of the carb and remove the drain plug on the bottom of the float bowl with a container to catch the gas coming out the bottom of the float bowl. Leave the petcock closed when you take the plug off the float bowl. If gas comes out empty the float then open the petcock to see if gasruns from the tank to the float bowl. If it does then you need to clean your carb.

  5. Give us a little more information about what it does when you try to start it. Its a electrical problem and you are going to have to do some testing to figure it out. I assume it turns over when you start it. And you know your getting gas by the smell or by looking in the carb. Take your air box off and hold the palm of your hand over the inlet to the carb and feel if there is suction on your palm to see if your getting compression in the cylinder. Let me know!

  6. Your float needle is not seating properly it is a small cylinder with a black rubber tip on the end of it. It is hooked to the floats with a wire loop. When the floats rise up they push the needle float closed and that stops the gasoline coming in from the tank. Sometimes you can tap on the side of the float bowl with a rubber hammer and that will seat the needle float otherwise you are going to have to take the float bowl apart and make sure it is connected properly.

  7. Sounds Like the relay is bad. Put a multimeter on the relay and see how many volts is going into the relay should be 14. Then put the multimeter on the starter and turn the starter over and see how many volts you are getting to the starter should be the same as at the relay. If not could be bad relay or wiring conection.
