res is reserve, and pri is the primary tank, off is in between the 2, so if res is at the top, and pri is at the bottom, then off would be at the middle position, pointing to the front of the quad

Prime. It has a fuel pump and isn't gravity-fed directly to the carb. Prime gravity feeds it to the pump whereas the other 2 positions don't.

No, you need a pump to flood the engine.

I've replaced a lot of intake valves, but hardly ever an exhaust valve. The intakes wear from a crappy air filter letting dirt in.

Sorry it is the intake valve that is worn just took it out. Is the filter the only cause for the wear. If it is what what kind of filter would you recommend. also on the fuel side there was a lot of fuel in the oil.

Any kind of oiled foam filter is good.

Fuel in the oil??? I don't know why that would be other than the gas left on and the carb flooded into the engine.
