How the choke cable connects to the carb! Everytime I rejet the thing, It takes me the same amount of time twisting that plastic piece of "Feces" screw into the carb than it does taking the thing off and and on. There is no room for a wrench and no room for two fingers to twist it on. But, I have found that at 7,000 feet, a 140 jet works the best in California Lakota's. I replaced the 148 stock jet with a 145 for sea level runs. Other than that, I like this quad. Not as much as my Raptor, but I like it.

 

Ah, yes!

The pesky "enrichment" plunger of the starting circuit (called by some, the "choke" cable).

Anyone who's removed the skin from his thumbs struggling to thread the "choke" cable plastic cap (male) threads into the the aluminum carburetor (female) hole "feels your pain," Dinocrisis!

After HOURS spent, trying to make this connection with the seat, tank, and carburetor installed, sometimes even succeeding, I've found the best approach to be: remove the seat, remove the tank; THEN you can get to the platic cap; even put a 12 mm open-end wrench on it. DON'T OVERTIGHTEN, but get it snug--the enrichment plunger must be absolutely straight and centered on the carb so it will seat when "off," otherwise, you'll run way too rich, fouling plugs and losing performance.

On a motorcycle, I guess you can get to this thing (the "choke" cable cap) easily; when the motor is mounted in a quad, there is simply too much plastic and seat and tank in the way.

Been there, done that!

Been there done that on my buddys Lakota and the Mojave is the same deal. What i have done is to remove the choke cable from the tie straps on the left frame rail under the gas tank. then you can take the carb off without even taking the dhoke cable loose. Just kinda pull the carb out far enough to get the jet in while it is on the cable then put it back on and use a zip tie to secure the cable up. Just cut the zip tie the next time and pull the carb out enough to get the jet in again. I must have done 5 or more jet changes this way on both Lakotas amd Mojaves. Takes about 20 minutes this way but I also have the seat rigged up for quick release.
