Polaris 325 Trail Boss flooding! Help please!
Hey, I have a Polaris 325 Trail Boss that I am working on for a friend. It has a fair amount of wear and tear on it, but not excessive. My trouble with it now is that it will not run well at all at anywhere above idle. I’m almost certain it’s flooding out. I have a brand new fuel pump, fuel lines, and carburetor and air filter, all aftermarket. It’s seems to run OK while idling, but as soon as I hit it it just bogs down and sometimes shuts off. Also fuel is leaking out of a little black tube that comes out of the bottom of the carburetor line while it’s idling. Any help or ideas are greatly appreciated!! Thanks.....~WelderBen

Ok, I’m working on the quad tonight. I went and replaced an o-ring on the main jet that goes down into the float, and adjusted the float so that it would close sooner than before. And it seemed to help, the four wheeler actually will move now, but it bogs down like crazy at like 10 mph. Idles ok. Also fuel is steadily streaming out of the bowl overflow tube. Any ideas anybody????

That hose is the overflow if the float sticks or the needle seat is no good. If your carb is brand new then return it as it is not right OR they should have sent instructions for adjustments for your particular bike. Sounds like your carb is way out of whack. I always recommend a thorough clean and rebuild with a good quality rebuild kit for your particular bike and engine. Getting the settings somewhere near normally doesn't cut it...short cuts rarely work!
