I have 2001 Kawasaki Lakota sport 300, well i was jumping today and my quad started to shut off when i would hit the gas, so i was like wtf.. but it idles fine only when i hit the gas did it like putt out and turn off, what could be causing this and how can i fix it? plz help, i cleaned out the gas tank b/c i figured somehting was in the gas and went into the carb to see if nething was blocking the gas but didnt find nething, i cleaned the carb also and the float valve i dont kno what else to do?

 

Check your petcock for proper function & position. Check vaccum lines to carb & airbox & choke cable/function.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]

Sup lakotalen, sounds like you either knocked off your pickup tube which brings the gas from the gas tank to the carb and being that it not connected the motor is not getting any gas which is causing it to shut off when you gas it, or you may just want to look over the petcock to make sure everything is properly and lined up right, and just for the hell of it clean out the line from the petcock to the carb then see what happeneds.
