Hey just joined up ,got a question for ya.

most of the time i can start my quad and it runs awsome , starts good runs smoth good responce,the whole deal.

but some times out of the blue it starts to idle slower and seams to miss,,,if i give it gas the tone gets deeper and it will back fire but the revs stay the same, it just idles. What gives???

new plug
dis abled etc
clean air filter

 

Check your spark plug and carburator fuel air mixture, thats what you might want to do to start, dont know what else to tell ya buddy
good luck with the bike

 

i changed the plug but it still does it now and then .im strechin but could it be the fly wheel , i read a thread before about that and it sounded alot the same as my problem but mine goes away if i leave it .. i also dont think it has anything o do with heat as it has done this before from start up.

 

What about the etc make sure your throttle cable is adjusted properly 1/8" freeplay before the carb slide starts to move. hope this helps

Check your intake boot for cracks it could be sucking air at times through a crack.

 

Funny how? Funny like a clown?
Sorry, couldn't resist. If all else fails you might want to rebuild the carb. But check the boot like Ftwflh said.

 

yea just like that ,,it will run normal then out of no whear it starts to jugle and beep its nose


Im gona check the boot thanx

 

oh the etc was my first thoght aswell but some "clown" gutted the box and i dont know what he did with the wires .....wich reminds me ......what colours are they and where do they go...im gona atempt to find them .

 

Guess nobody else saw the movie "Good Fellas", that's the clown reference. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
