I was riding my warrior and i looked at the header and it was very bright red. I am trying to figure out what is wrong. I think my quad might be running lean? Need adjustments in carb? whats are factory settings?

 

anyone?

 

Any mods? If not then you are probably sucking air from somewhere. Check for leaks in or around the carb boot between the carb and the head.

 

Definately lean. Check for leaks, a good way if you can't seem to find any is to take something such as Brake Cleaner or WD-40 or anything else and spray it on areas where it could be sucking air. If the motor revs up (at idle) then it is sucking air from that place. The boot between the carb and head can sometimes go bad as well.

 

no mods but gonna try spraying WD 40.

 

tried spraying WD40 and brake cleaner but nothing happened. what can be wrong?air/fuel mixture screw? jets?whats carb factory setting?

 

How does it run? If it runs OK then it might be fine. It's normal to see a little red glow right at the head on a cool night after running your engine hard.

 

It seems to run OK. its not right at the head but the the whole pipe.

 

alright this is bothering me. i have the quad at idle and the header still gets bright red! Also what causes the carb to backfire?
