Hi, I have a 1986 yamaha moto 4 200 semi auto shaft drive . and it has a blown engine. i whould like to know if anybody knows where i could find another engine. i dont care if its a used one or a replacement, of from a different atv. i just want it back.

,thanks

 

Ebay would be a start. There are also ATV salvage companies you could do a search for. But how bad is it blown? If it's not too bad you could rebuild it for less than an engine would cost.

i look on ebay all of the time for one and theres never one for mine. but theres actually one on there now that is rebuilt and he wants $600 for it. i called a atv repair place they said since its so old it would be about $1200. im not sure what you mean about how blown, but i was driving on a strait road one day about 3/4 throttle and it just made a high piched knock. it sounded like when you try to put it in reverse while your still moveing foward. im looking for one probably under $400
tops.

 

$600 sounds like a decent deal if it's in good shape. I don't understand why the ATV repair shop would have said "since it's so old" it will be $1200. When I say "how blown", I meant if the top end (piston & cylinder) is bad you could rebuild it for around $300 if you can do it yourself. If the bottom end (crank) went out, then it could be $1200 or more. Usually if the crank went out, your piston and cylinder are bad, too. If I were you I would take it apart and find out the problem first before I went any further.
