I have an early 90's warrior that has been having some problems recently. The quad will start up fine and run fine for about one minute, after that it will idle and rev fine with the clutch pulled in but when you release the clutch and put a load on the motor the revs instantly drop to literaly about 10 rpm you can hear the individual combustion strokes and the bike will start to die. If you pull the clutch in, the bike will be fine and rev normaly. I pulled apart the carb and the pilot jet was slightly clogged so i blew it out but that did nothing for my problem. The bike is stock. Im stumped.

 

disconnect the rev limiter and tell me how it is.

 

Im not sure where thats located on this machine.

 

yeah thats the rev limiter, did you push in the parking brake anytime lately? the parking break is what has the rev limiter on it

 

yup, thats exactly what it was, thanks.
