Help my 98 500 Scrambler wont idle
Hi everyone I am a newbie on here but I used to ride a lot but due to my time consuming job my 4 wheeler has sat for along time. It will not will not idle but runs as long as I give it a little gas. I have sprayed a lot of carb cleaner through the breather and it does not work. Any ideas?

Doesn't take long for fuel to break down and clog jets.Probably pilot jet stopped up.You can maybe get by with just cleaning the jets,but if mine I'd go ahead and pull the carb,install a new carb kit, keep a good fuel stabilizer in it along with a battery tender to get more life from it.http://www.ebay.com/itm/CARB-REBUILD-REPAIR-KIT-POLARIS-SCRAMBLER-500-98-99-00-01-02-2WD-4WD-2X2-4X4-/230835298722?pt=Motors_ATV_Parts_Accessories&hash=item35bedb21a2&vxp=mtr
