Default Timberwolf 250 choke question

Hey Y'all,

My 250 has had this problem for about a year now.

I start my ATV with the choke open. Once its started I flip the switch down. One the choke has been flipped down my ATV will idle for like 20-30 seconds then shut down. If I keep the choke open the ATV will idle no problem.

Whats the problem?

Will it idle when warmed up with the choke off?

Nope. It will idle for 20 seconds or so then shut down. I will have to record a video of it this weekend.

You need to pull the carb down and take look at the pilot jet REAL hard.

GA Trapper. How did the revamp you were doing go? I would definately check the pilot jet. I had a similar problem on a Bayou recently. OG rules
