Nice work on that one! I picked up one in my neighborhood for free last weekend. Neighbors put it on neighborhood marketplace and said if anyone could fix it, come get it. I was that guy and could not get there fast enough. 2002 Foreman 450 S. It definitely has/had some issues. The bottom of the case had a hairline crack that had been poorly sealed up. I cleaned that up and resealed it to where it has stopped the oil leak. I ran it for about 5 minutes last night. Engine sounded smooth. I can hear an exhaust leak. I did notice the top end base gasket has oil spewing out, so I will have to pull the top end and inspect as well as replace that gasket. It needs a battery and the seat re-covered and then I think it will be a good ole work horse like all of those Hondas are!
I have to same one. I had some starting issues and when I hit it with a little starter fluid it started running with no more issues. I use to take it out on the trails before I only started using to plow snow. Now that the NE doesn’t get much snow anymore I want to get her back on some trails. Thanks for sharing. New sub to your channel.
@@dmack346 Thanks for the support! Foreman’s are my favorite all around machine and for trails. They need very little maintenance and will last forever. Let me know if you ever have any future questions and I will try to help out!
I would recommend getting a good set of strikeable JIS screwdrivers. Watching you take the carb bowl off with a regular Phillips and an impact made me pucker lol those things are so easy to strip. I have a 42 year old CB650 without the proper bits I would have stripped every screw
@@yeahright302 Yes it is! It is an all original 1994 that was bought brand new by my family. I’m debating making a video about it for the channel if I get enough interest.
@@Pickup_Projects wow,thats great!!love them years!!i belong to a group of (f 150 fords) and had to share it with them!!!how many mile son it?6cyl auto?
Very cool. I have the 98 trx400fw. Great machine. Extremely reliable & very tough. 👍👍 What brand box is that for the rear carrier ?? I'd say for $1200 you got a great deal overall
well done.. an air box that looks like that speaks volumes as to the rest of the unit.. and a little starting fluid verifies a running engine, no need to waste time checking for spark and compression..

@@larrywalden626 it’s called super clean. It is a degreaser in a purple bottle. Great for most machines but don’t let it sit long especially on aluminum
@@Pickup_Projects cool. Thanks. I was thinking of using Napa aluminum toon brightner stuff on the motor just to get all the stained mud color off the cylinder cooling vents. I use the stuff on my pontoon. It works pretty well. I’ve wondered what it would do on the quad motor.
Hi. Is that the cleaner you used on the four wheeler and or the carburetor? I own a 94 Polaris 400L and used a jump box and it blew all of my lights on my machine! Wish i would have just bought a new battery at that time but was going to set up some tree stands and of course pull cord broke as well! Took a while to replace them all and still need to figure out my AWD light? Thank you and have a good day
@@rayjrdibenedetto867 yes I use super clean on the machine and you can use it for a carb if you use it in an ultrasonic cleaner with water. Also, I’m not sure why your lights blew using a jump box unless there is something wrong with the box. People use a jump box all the time. Did you check to see if it has a fuse that blew on the machine?
@@Pickup_Projects thats nothing I hae a suzuki lt500 4x4 with simular miles 2002 model and love it . The dealer here told me it the best of the suzuki s as the later one are not made in Japan and more things break
Heck of a deal for 1200. Where do you find these in decent shape and complete for that price? On marketplace around me in Ohio/Indiana/Kentucky area they are beat up, plastic broke or missing just pure junk for that price.
@@larrywalden626 normally they aren’t in this good of shape but the area I live has a big market. Also the guy I purchased it from didn’t know much about them so he wanted it gone.
Loving your videos. I found you couple weeks ago and subscribed when I was hunting for video content rebuilding the top end of my 2006 Honda Rancher 350 I’ve owned 18 years.
had to stop the video, when you turned the key on, i noticed the neutral light on the dash did not come on ?..it won't fire the spark plug unless its ''see's '' its in neutral !.
@@Pickup_Projects or the light bulb was burnt out ?. but yeah, the neutral light must be on in order to fire plug, its a safety feature built into the atv.
@@robbybustle5344 Your starter solenoid is bad if it won’t start unless you cross it over. I have another video on my channel that shows you how to replace the solenoid on a Honda foreman.
@@williecosgrove In this situation, I had the fuel turned off due to the carb leaking badly out of the over flow. Float was stuck open so it made it easier to check with starter fluid.
