I've seen this before. I could be wrong but I bet it's still your carb

cody_hattaway2007 · Veteran Member

Okay, that helps!
After a while you can mess with it and finally ease it into taking the gas.

sounds like a piece of trash in your main jet...

cody_hattaway2007 · Veteran Member

Thats the weird thing though,

We've cleaned it many times..

and it still seems to do it!

I had about the same thing happen to my old griz. I would be riding and it would die. I could get it to start but it would only idle. After changing alot of parts I cleaned the carb and it was fixed

Any chance there's much water/moisture in the fuel tank? The main jet is the lowest in the carb, thus is the first to get submerged in water if it's getting in there.

does your choke work?

cody_hattaway2007 · Veteran Member

Yeah it works!!

But idkay man..

Im gonna clean the carb again really good,

and i think that i did have some water in my gas which contributed to it..

But today like it was running fine but when i did shut it off and go to crank it.

It done it again.

Well, I really really need a right front cv axle for my foreman.. and i cant seem

to find a good stock used one for a good price.. does anyone have any and whats the price??

Thanks..

pondhopper1 · Headcutters DADDY

check ebay on that axle

jgmood050 · .

check the intake boot between the engine and carb for leaks.

check the large rubber diaphram on the top of the carb for leaks.

also, when it does this, does it puff out black smoke?

cody_hattaway2007 · Veteran Member

No, not really, but if you pull the top off the breather box,

and pull off the filter.

when it does choke out itll shoot gas all outta the carb into the breather box and it will also shoot like a white smoke out of it...

jgmood050 · .

better yet,, if you have a buddy with a rancher or foreman or even a 300 swap carbs and see if that fixes you problem..

one more before you do that, remove the gas cap and try to crank it. (just to make sure the vent is working)

cody_hattaway2007 · Veteran Member

Okay, i realized today that there is some kind of sensor or something on the bottom of the carb that is broken?

You think that has anything to do with it? and what is it?

Its some kind of sensor or something?

jgmood050 · .

no it is a heater for areas that get real cold. It wont effect the way it runs.

cody_hattaway2007 · Veteran Member

Oh, okay.. I really havent messed with it too much yet cause it gets frustrating haha..

but im soon going to figure out the exact reason it runs likethis.
