ok, my bayou 220 stalls when i go through water or mud fast enough to throw mud on the front, everytime i hit a mud hole or a creek going about 10 or 15 mph it stalls, wont start for a while, then it doesnt run right for about 15 min. And, what kind of mud tires should i get for it, i sometimes ride on roads too, so they have to wer well, thanks for your imput, later

 

Have you checked to see if water is grounding out your spark plug connection? There are gells that are made to keep the top of the plug and plug wire from getting wet in such conditions.

 

I just went riding to day and the same thing happens it stalls but for me not in mud. Then It wont start and i just had it tuned for $108 dollers do you think i should tell them about this or am i doing somthing?

 

hey 4wheeler220, what year is your bayou? that is so strange!!! i was just about to post that same question!!! that happens on my '94 bayou 220 all the time, too, we had a new starter put it, cuz it started hard w/ the electric start, but it still starts hard now, even w/ a new starter, and it still shuts off in water or mud, does anyone know what is wrong??

 

I have the 1994 bayou 220 too and it never cuts off in mud or water. i have had water over the racks with just the air box up and it still didnt shut off. I had a new starter put in it two years ago cause i ground it down so much. But for your Mud Tires you need to get some
Gators, They are awesome. It runs just like you have all factory. But now i can get through anything.

 

Mines a 2000, I figured out that it was the sparkplug getting wet and grounding out. To fix it i just dont hit te water as hard anymore, I ease into it a lil more, then I give her hell.
