03 Big Bear 400 4x4 dies every time I attempt accelerate.
First off, howdy ATVConnection.com forum folks.
I don't know much about engine work, just maybe enough to get myself in trouble. I've changed the air filter, oil and gear oil regularly that's about it. All I can say is on my 2003 Big Bear 400 4x4 dies every time I attempt to simply accelerate. Knowing a little about working on engines and what to listen for I figured it was a carb issue. Not sure? All I know is if I hold my hand about 2/3 over the intake tube that goes to the filter box, the engine doesn't die and I can drive it around.
I'd appreciate an tips or suggestions before I go take it into someone that may charge me $150 to turn a few screws. At least get myself educated on what the problem may be before hand. Thanks folks.
