Is there a noteable difference in top speed/ power, when comaring the 250 quad runner to the 300 king quad { with both of them being the selectable 2x4 + 4x4 models } ?
I’ll pin your comment. I have only ridden 300’s and have no experience between the two.
Hopefully someone can chime in reading this.
Thanks! Josh
Listen Schneids, this is what youtube is all about. You explain, in detail, how to perform the process AND explain other things to look out for. I need to buy you beer. Thank you man!
Probably the best comment i have ever received. I’ll buy you a beer too🤙🏻 Thanks man! Josh
@@Schneids15 so I'm dealing with leaking, too low of idle and it sputters at top end unless the airbox cover is absent. After seeing your video for Chinese carb, well, I found the issue! Going on a search for a Mikuni! Dude, I really do appreciate your knowledge!
Thanks man! I am really not a highly knowledgeable guy! Just going off experience😀
One of the most sensible and down-to-earth presentations on working on a carb rebuild. Extremely well done. My compliments and appreciation...I understand a WHOLE lot more now than before I started.
Thanks Jim. This is just coming from a country boy just a down to earth video is what i tried for. Glad it helped and thank you for the nice comment. Josh
You are my hero!!! I would have never had the courage to tackle a job like this without your videos. Thank You!!!
I was cleaning my carb and used your video and for some reason I was having trouble adjusting the idle screw to where it would run right, and it was running really rich. I had put the clip on the needle on the highest spot to try to get it to seat lower to not allow more gas in. After hours of adjusting I finally got it to idle. Then when I put my air box back on it wouldn’t even start. After reviewing your video again I found that on the needle I was putting spacer, washer then clip on the needle not washer, clip and lastly spacer. Thanks your the good video.
I fixed my King Quad fuel problem thanks to your videos. It’s been running dependably for a year now. Thanks.
Thank you for the comment. I am so glad i was able to help you out Lars. Josh
I was given a 93 king quad and I’m restoring it from ground up and this is my first quad rebuild but your video was excellent. Thank you for taking the time and making quality videos.
Awesome videos. Thank you for making the time to create them.
I love this bike when it's running. It was way ahead of it's time. Mine sat for years after buying a UTV and won't run now.
After following your videos I was able to get the carb apart and cleaned up. I replaced the petcock as it had failed as well. Now we just need a video of getting the darned carb back in and the intake boot on. I imagine it'll be a 6 hour video with lots of cussing, kicking, and beer. Then we realize the carb needs more attention and do the process all over again.
A tip for those who struggle with putting the carb back in with the airbox and intake hoses, take off your top plate where the range knobs are, remove the bolt holding the white snorkel and slide it back, then carefully cut off those back tabs on the airbox, it makes it MUCH easier to remove and replace the carb when needed. I can now tune the carb a lot faster and easier. Just make sure that it is secured (I used zip ties) and not touching the exhaust that is close to it.
Thanks for the video! My 1999 250 quadrunner would not run without the choke fully on and feathering the throttle. Took my carb apart, cleaned it and put it back in with the help of the video. Now starts right up and runs without the choke!
Great to hear! So glad my video helped. Josh
Wanted to say thanks for the video. Just bought a 300 that had been stored outside and would sometimes start but not run. Used your video to remove 3 dead bugs from the float bowl and now runs great. Now have to try getting 1st gear to engage and the front brakes to work. Thanks for the videos.
Thanks! It was just a quick video that ended up being popular. I am happy it helped you. Josh
I just finished a carb rebuild 3/20/21. I have a 96 king 300. I am the sole owner. It would smell like it was running rich after shut off. The mid range circlip was set in the fourth groove and the idle screw was four turns out. I used the new needle and put the circlip in the middle of the five grooves and set the idle jet to two and a half turns out. The needle seat retain screw would not turn so I used a craftsman 1/4x4in. chisel #42971 to get it loose (that chisel has come in handy often) and reinstall it. I used a small screw driver handle to hold open the butterfly to install the throttle cable. I used 3in1 oil to lube the inside lip of the rubber boot to install it. I got the bottom of the boot to seat first on each end and used a very very small flat head screw driver to finish getting the top of the boot to seat first on the carb then on the air box. Started right up and after a one mile test ride no rich smell after shut off. Thanks Josh.
You're a legend. Been watching your king quad series before I do any work on mine. It's made all the work a breeze, thank you.
This guy is the best he knows all about King quads
Thanks Chuck
guys like you are the real m.v.p's of youtube. thank you so much
Thank you.
@@Schneids15 got a quick question for you. im trying to get a buddies 94 king quad 300 going that he has had sat for a while. thats what brought me to your videos. i figured first thing id do was clean the carb. but got thinking what if the motor is ceased. no point on doing the carb. the battery is no good on the thing. and i cant seem to pull start it. it wont budge . i seen your video on how to pull start it and that combushion flap you flip. when i flip it it does not stay flipped. the spark plug has rust on it. i guess long story long. is there another way i could tell if the motor is ceased without having to waste money buying a new battery? perhaps trying to pull start it behind a truck or something? .
Thanks bud your video help me get her running it's running perfect it's at for 15 years and it needed the carburetor cleaned bad but thanks your video I'm riding around right now thanks again.
Appreciate this. Got my father's 96 King quad 300. It doesn't run so this is my first thought. Need to find an air filter box for it also. Mine doesn't have one. Also need a right side front CV axle
I got mine back from the shop a while back. The carb needed to be cleaned. I wondered why it kept acting "cold natured" and took forever to keep running. Finally I tore into it and found out they had left the pilot screw fully seated. NO WONDER. Well anyway I ended up pulling it off just so I could adjust it. I have it maybe 2 5/8 or almost there per the service manual. The one thing that sucks about how the carb is sitting in there is the fact that you really cannot adjust it while it's running. But it's doing really well now nevertheless. lol.
Hey Dude, Thanks so much. My plugs were just going black dispite changing plugs etc. Pulled the carb apart. cleaned all the jets as per your vid. Never run better. Had the bike 15 years
Have two 94 King quads. Thanks for you videos. They help a lot.
Thanks for this video. Great detail including removal. I have done this before but it is not like most carb removals and disassemblies. Your video makes it very clear. Also you made a good point about test running with hoses installed. I didn't know that so it was part of why I couldn't get the engine started after rebuild. I also was unclear about how many turns the fuel mixture should have been (I forgot to count when removing it 😣). That rubber air feed hose connecting to the carb is the most awkward part of this job. More time is spent on reinstalling that darned thing than any other part of the servicing. I sure wish the rubber was more pliable. Thanks again for posting this.
Any other videos coming for the Suzuki King 300?
Hey Paul! Thanks for the comment! 😁 I am always looking for new king quad videos to produce. I have trouble thinking of ideas actually. Yes for sure in the future i will post more👍🏻
@@Schneids15 can you do a video on the location of the water pump and thermostat, my king quad is overheating so i need to check coolant system
That was a great video, thanks for filming.
I have 1 king quad and 2 2x4 quad runners and my sister just picked up a 4x4 quad runner but hers is all full idle choke doesn’t work, so i came here to find out a bit more about the choke. Anyways great video it was VERY informative and clear.
Thank you for the nice comment. Glad it helped!
Thanks for the King Quad 300 carburetor clean video. Very detailed and helpful much appreciated.
This is just in time!
I am getting started on a 98 King Quad, been sitting a while. Bought it as a project for my daughter and I to tinker with. Should be fun.
Gonna start with a carb cleaning, adjust valves, and see how she runs. I was told that it smoked, so maybe new rings soon as well.
Thanks for the videos, keep up the great work!
No problem i am glad i could help. Run it for a while. The smoke may dissipate and be a good runner who knows. Hope it gets running for ya.
Nice job! I've got a 94 lt250 Quadrunner, just under 5000 km. I think it has the same carb as your 300. Idle goes REALLY high after a short while of warmup. Happens @ 2 5/8 to 2 7/8 out. Any further out it dies without throttle. Not choking it at all. Some "hiccups" need to be ironed out (adjust valves?)
Thanks again! Well done.
I have the same issue on this Quad. On my blue one i have no problems at all. However i tuned that myself and i am pretty sure it is about 5 turns out or vise versa. Something i gotta look into to iron out.
Thanks, Schneids15. I'm gonna pull the carb and clean. I've ordered a rebuild kit just in case. Seems like I had it off 10 years ago to clean/look at it - can't remember now. Your vid is so excellent. Happy riding.
Did mine, my Quadrunner 300 now runs absolutely perfect. WHat a machine
Hey amazing video helped me rebuild carb on mine after it got its first run in 20 years and runs great but my dads has an issue and don’t know where to start it will turn over but will not fire no matter what the choke is at and I rebuilt the carb
Check if you have spark if you don't then put a new spark plug and test your ignition coil cable and if there all good you could have a bad cdi
Watched this a couple times - will watch a couple more as I work on my carb for the first time. Really appreciate your work here. This is way overdue on my '97. Had an episode where I ran out of fuel, adjusted the petcock to reserve, ran out again (quickly), filled tank, ran briefly, quit, got grey smoke out the exhaust when cranking, then no starting (piston just wouldn't move). So, I'm doing the carb. Found fuel in the air intake box soaking the bottom of the filter. My fuel has leaked to the point where the remainder is flush with the top of the petcock (longer) intake. I want to remove the petcock next. Do you see any issue with me tipping the machine on it's right side, so I can remove the petcock without having to empty the fuel tank?
Good video but I'll add when you takeoff the choke cable be sure you also remove the brass piece that's on the cable, I didn't and it fell into the engine area. I was on grass and couldn't find it, look all over. Then I put a black blanket under the atv and shock real hard and it fell out onto the blanket, lucked out.
Perfect vid! Just what the doctor ordered. Thanks Bro!
Hey man just a quick tip if you didn’t already know, it blew my mind when I found out but - most of these atvs are manufactured using JIS screws, not Phillips, JIS is short for “Japanese industrial standard” and usually they have a small dot on the screw head to signify that they are JIS. That is why almost every carb you come across nowadays has stripped out bowl screws, and stripped out screws all over the machine because 99% of the time they are manufactured in Japan using JIS, and every guy who’s owned it previously has stripped them out using Phillips. I recommend looking into Vessel JIS screwdrivers, they are known for they’re quality, they are true JIS, and you can order them right off Amazon. It’s honestly an unbelievable difference, id recommend anyone who owns an Japanese manufactured atv should at the very least own a #2 JIS screwdriver. It will even remove the mostly stripped Phillips screws quite often as JIS just bites that much more vs Phillips
Ahh thank u
awesome vid bud. I just needed to know where the stupid idle adjuster goes after taking my carb out I didn't see where it came from and put it on the wrong side. What that did was make the idle either set itself too low or too high because of the age and that adjuster rusting into it original bend and i moved to the other side not knowing and when i put it back it's great. 1995 250 2x4.
Great to hear! Glad i could help🤙🏻
Hi, super video! Thanks a lot!!
I thought it would fix my problem, I have difficulty starting. I have to pull the Choke and push to full gas and IT takes a while to start... There is a hose Near the rear right tire that leaks gas, it has a rubber nozzle...don't know what could be the problem
Thank you so much
Hey bud..you forgot to remove your o-ring and washer under the pilot screw..also, alot of people are not aware that the needle jet ( emulsion tube ) must be removed and cleaned as well...they are notorious for getting plugged..i remove all parts and put them in a ultrasonic cleaning machine..( best money you'll ever spend) ensure the orifices are clear on the needle jet..if not, I use a small strand of copper wire to clear the holes if need be.. NEVER use " torch tip cleaner" to clear obstructions as these orifices may become oversized which are specific to the carburetor...cheers
h tip cle
Hey Greg! Thanks! Yes i have watched this over again and wished i could have reshot it and did a better video. Hopefully people read the comment and check these steps!
Also..on your specific carb. Float setting is 12.5- 13.5 mm (0.49 - 0.53 in.) Jet needle clip position is 4th groove..hope this helps..
Hey man! First I wanted to thank you for a great video. It really helped give me the confidence to tackle this repair without sending it out, couldn’t have done this without your video.
However, I was wondering if you could help me trouble shoot an issue...
First off, the bike sat for a couple years. I drained the gas, changed the oil/filter, air filter and added fresh gas. It fired right up with no issues. However I wanted to rebuild the carb as it sat so long with old gas.
I pulled the carb, used a rebuild kit and replaced all jets/gaskets and followed your directions. It was actually pretty clean, but the jets were a little corroded.
After reinstalling the carb, it kicked over on full choke for a minute the than died. After that I could only get it to turn over on full choke, for five seconds, very limply, and as soon as I let go of the start button it quits. Now it won’t start at all.
Any idea what could be going on? Could I maybe have mixed up the vent hoses or hav something on wrong? I don’t think it’s the petcock, fuel, or anything like that, as the bike had no issue running before. As far as I can tell, the connections to the air box and from the carb to the motor are on tight.
I also saw you mentioned something about the rubber boot on the choke being “over top” what did you mean by that?
The machine is a 99 and only has 1k miles on it. I just can’t figure it out and was hoping that you had a tip or something before I have to tear it off and try again.
I also have a digital copy of the shop manual I’d be happy to send you for your effort. Please let me know if you have any thoughts or need me to clear off further and thanks again!
Hey man, thanks for the nice comment. I am glad i can help you out. I think you have a vacuum line possibly mixed up. Seems like it isn’t getting much fuel.
Thanks you so much for the reply, and I’ll give that a shot!
Is there anyway to sort out which ones go where ? They all seem to be identical black hoses. Is there a way to trace them and determine which ports they correspond with?
Thanks again man, I really appreciate it!
Thank you much. Your calm, detailed video answers several questions I had. 👍👍
Awesome video. Helped me out a ton. I picked up a free 1993 KQ 300 that was sitting for 3 years in the Arizona heat. I followed your video and was able to get the carb cleaned, oil changed (thanks for your other video on oil changes) and the quad started right up to my surprise. I do have a problem though. The thing Idles super high in neutral but as soon as I put it in gear the idle drops down. Though I put choke back wrong. That didn’t change anything. Tried spinning the idle adjustment but nothing changes. Any help would be much appreciated.
Hey Matt, thanks for the comment. I assume you set the carb idle to 2 5/8 turn out like i said in the video? I would set the idle up in neutral first. Check the end of your choke fitting where the plastic meets that kinda rubber boot thing and give the cable a wiggle and see if that settles it down. I have had an air leak around that cable cause that issue before. Also check that your vacuum lines are all hooked up.
I’ll check it out. You’re a stud. Didn’t think I’d get a response from you.
Just rebuilt my king quad carb.
I have a 1997 King Quad that fires right up cold, idles and runs great. Ride it around about 10 min warms up but once your riding for about 15 to 20 minutes it starts to randomly stall and it won't start again for about 10 or 15 min. I have cleaned the carb, replaced the voltage regulator, fuel pump, and the petcock but the warm stall issue continues. Any recommendations you can offer would be greatly appreciated. I love your channel by the way. Thank you.
You can take apart the cab with the tool kit that comes with these new eh, the 10mm/12mm wrench can get that choke nut off with some patience but by no means is it a nice fit or fun in any way 😜
Haha. Got to love the simplicity! I really would like to re-do this video with better quality and instructions.
@@Schneids15 my grandfather bought one in 95 just after I was born, I took ownership after he passed and have been continuing to fall in love with it. The fact that it's almost 30 and is going to have it's first axle change, bushings and bearings are still good but I'll be in there so why not, some parts are dirt cheap, some, are worth more than the whole quad itself. But it's such a tough bugger
Josh great videos! Just picked up a 94 king quad for 200bucks. Cleaned carb and got her running thanks to your videos. Does it matter where you run the vaccum line comming off the fuel petcock? Carb was completely off when I bought it. My carb has a plastic tube on one side (fuel line side ) and a metal tube on the throttle cable side. Two vent tubes directly behind the diagram? You are the king quad master. Thanks
No vacuum lines do not matter. Plug the one line going to the petcock. It will cause issues if the diaphragm breaks. If it has a barb it is a vacuum line. If not it is a vent.
A set of JIS spec screw drivers are the ticket when working on these carbs. I replaced all the stripped screws with socket head screws when I did the one on my dirt bike, no different than these. JIS screw heads aren't the same as Phillips, Phillips I think were intentionally designed to strip out lol.
Great video brother, I have a kq also, thanks so much 4 the tips
Great video man, rebuilding a 4x4 quad runner carb as we speak but my 2x4 quad runner has that little plastic pieces that threads into the carb on the choke cable is broken. Any chance you know where I can get a new one of those? Otherwise I’m thinking of using a piece of heat shrink I can use to reconnect the cable rubber to said plastic piece.
Yes grab from suzuki. I did and it was fairly cheap surprisingly. If you have the proper piece they run way better and idle smooth.
thanks for the video,i have a 94 250 that need's the carb refreshed,,this should be a great help
Good and thorough Thank-you I have one question about the idle screw on the bottom how many turns out should I turn it if I swP it with the mikunu screw with the adjustment tail
My carb is a lot different. I have an 2001 or 2002 Quad.
would it be possible for you to do a video on showing different ways on putting on the inlet tube and if there is a way to soften the inlet tube up to make it easier
DUDE YOUR AMAZING!! You helped me a ton!!
First of all, great channel and thank you all the king quad guidance. Any chance you can share any tips on replacing a throttle cable for my 98' king quad 300. The cable broke within the jacketing. How far am I breaking things down from the handle bars to the carb for installation. Much appreciated.
Hey! Sorry i have not had to ever do one. I would suspect just the seat comes off and the plastics around the shift knobs. You can then remove the cable i would suspect.
Excellent Presentation~~Thanks
@@Schneids15 I just wrote to you..Keep a eye out...Many Thanks...Steve Lovell
Thanks for the video. Big help!
One of the biggest problem I have is understanding is where dose the gas line go to the carb where do vacuum lines go and what needs to be capped off and what goes where but I need it to be explained like I’m 4 years old
Excellent video, thanks
Tks for all those good videos. It makes me understand my KingQuad '93 a lot.
Which rebuild kit do you recommand, OEM or Amazon? If amazon do you have one in particular that you like the end result?
Awesome Video Mate, I have just pulled the carb out of my Father in laws King Quad 300, and the diaphragm has a small tear in it. Any advise on where to find the part number and the parts for these in Canada? Cheers
what creates the vacuum to operate the vacuum pump on top to operate the fuel pump? crank case? or how does diaphragm move? i just cleaned one and put it back on. but havent connected the air box and filter yet so that may be the issue. not getting any suction coming out for fuel pump. did before taking it off though. yes its back together correctly and tab lined up. i saw that. ive worked on mowers, ope, bicycles, cars, trucks for 20 years but new to atvs and the atv style carb.
also working on polaris 200cc phoenix i think it is. about 15 years old. had it running perfect. but drain valve on carb bowl was leaking and not sealing. took carb off. swapped bowls. did quick clean without disassembly of any internal parts, new o ring against block. new air filter. now it backfires like crazy unless choke is half on then it seems to run without back fires. neighbor called cops cause thought i was shooting guns from polaris back fires
As far as the phoenix it sounds like a lean pop. The choke richens it up and makes it run OK. Vacuum is created by the piston going downwards drawing a low pressure.
Nice information on this thanks alot for sure.
Madd Skills... Thank you!
you comment on making sure you have all the a filter installed may have solved a problem--I have one that seems to run so lean the exhaust glows.
Can you possibly do a video of where and what all rubber hoses do and where they go
Did u figure the hoses out got a new carb and cant figure out where the lines run
Enjoyed your video on the King quad. Mine runs if the choke is set all the way. Taking the choke off about half way it dies. The carb was cleaned as to your specs about a year ago. I did notice the rubber was in bad shape where the choke goes in the the carb. Could this be my problem? I have searched on line everywhere for a replacement to no avail. Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Hey David, yes correct. If that rubber is bad it will run terrible just like that. Unfortunately Suzuki is the only place to get the rubber. I don’t live close to a dealer so i have them ship the parts to me
Do you have video of working on the final drive and inner u joint of the king quad?
But see remove the air needle on the outside of the bowl the little sticking up I have mine out. I don’t remember if there’s a spring or not hoping to see it in here.
My Ozark is slightly different but still helped
Hey I have a 2001 king quad Lt300 but my carb doesnt look like that, can the Model X Carb swap for the Model K1, K2, and Y1?
Sorry i am not sure on all the different models. I am sure you could swap it if all sizes are right.
Thanks for the great videos. I am rebuilding my 1998 Suzuki Quad after watching your videos. I did great taking the carb out, and dissembly except for the little brass jet that you need a real small slotted screwdriver. I cannot get it out. Will that jet cause me problems ? Thanks, Bob
Hey Bob, so that jet i normally take a real small screwdriver and grind it down to use. If you can shine a light in it and verify it is clear with a magnifying glass or if you have good eyes you will not have to take it out. Let me know if you have issues. Josh
Hi trying to fix a friend Suzuki quad four-wheel-drive I can’t find what kind more than that but fuel tank in up and no fuel pump gravity flow. It has the diaphragm for the slide elevator. The lines going to the carb was off. I know only the main fuel line that comes from fuel shut off is correct but it has 3 more lines where do they go? This carb is not like I see on every one else easily taken out this one is under the frame and Close to the starter. Thanks
I have a 300 and it idles super high. It also backfires when I turn it off. The issue is it is difficult to get it into reverse or out of reverse when it is like this. I think it is a safety issue. I turned down the throttle on the right side using the little turn nob but still the same thing. Hard to get it into and out of reverse. Any suggestions?
Piece of cake once you show how it's done
So this video is great, let me say that, you made it so easy, with the step by step instructions. So I did this and put everything back together and it will only start with the throttle wide open, and it will not idle, any help or tips you can give me?
It sounds like it is flooding out with only starting with the throttle wide open. It is hard to say what is wrong without seeing it. Sorry.
@@Schneids15 i went ahead and ordered a rebuild kit, so maybe that will help.
Thinking of it now i would make sure the float and needle are seating properly. It could be what is flooding it. Was fuel overflowing out of the carb at all or could you smell fuel a lot?
@@Schneids15 yes it was over flowing, and smelled a lot like gas.
So first off check your 2 vacuum lines. The one that goes to the fuel petcock and the one that goes to the fuel pump. See if there is gas in them. If so the diaphraghm could have broke on the pet or fuel pump. Not likely but could be a coincidence. It is likely the needle and seat are not seating proper and it is overflowing sue to that. A carb kit should solve that.
Helpful- enjoyed
Great video. I have a 1994 king quad 300 and one day I was riding around the yard and it stalled out on me. Immediately started right back up but would only idle. Would kill itself if you
Gave it any gas. Took the carb apart and found a little piece of rubber stuck in the main jet. Ended up cleaning the whole carb, put it back together but this time it wouldn’t run at all. Bought a new carb, and now it’s back to where it was from the beginning... starts right up, but you can’t give it any gas without it dying out. It also is idling up real high randomly then isles down and kills itself again.. any help would be extremely appreciated thanks!
Sounds like a loose connection where the choke cable goes in and it is sucking air. Make sure you have the intake boot on or this stalling issue will happen as it will run too lean.
Still no luck. Have the intake boot on, iv tried setting my carb between 2 turns out, 2.5 turns and 3 turns out on the fuel mixture and no change. I bought one of the Chinese carbs you just did a video on and it was hogging down when you’d give it gas just like yours. Starts right up like nothing though. I’m almost to the point where I take half of the parts from the new carb and put them into the old one
Super awesome info. Thanks
Awesome video! Do you think you can do a short video on replacing that plastic choke screw on how you take it off and put on a new one that would help me a lot.
So cleaned mine would not start kept cleaning again watching your video months later it starts but the exhaust while running would get red hot close to engine now get it to start just have to barely hold open throttle can not get that adjusted any advice
I have a King Quad that floods outs at idle. The carb has been gone through twice still floods out. Will always start and run,will flood on idle. Do you have anything suggestions. Thinking on replacing carburetor what Mikuni model would you suggest?
Use factory carb. I would replace the needle valve and make sure float height is set correct.
what do you think would cause a rich condition that will slowly flood the engine out if it idles too long?
My guess would be a needle leaking. The fuel level will raise to high and eventually flood into the carb and cause this.
@@Schneids15 thanks, I took it apart and fond corosion on the seat oring it was leaking fuel around the seat by passing the needle.
great clean job, thanks!
Could you elaborate on the hoses that come from the top of the carburetor,mine are all disconnected. Thanks
Sorry i don’t have it with me right now so i can’t. If you blow into the lines and no resistance they are vent lines. They go on the non barbed fittings on each side of the carb. The other ones that have resistance blowing in are for the fuel pumps. They go on the offset white plastic barbed fitting and metal barbed fitting in the centre. Hope this helps.
@@Schneids15 Any chance you could explain some more about this? Om reverting a King Quad i just purchased that has some unknown non original carb (possibly a early model King Quad carb). So I have no idea what all the ports on my replacement carb has to be hooked up to.
But essentially just vent on top and fuel in lower? No vacuum or any fancy stuff?
Some additional info to my question above. My bike has a small low pressure electric fuel pump. So I would think there is no need to think about any fancy vacuum fuel pumps.
Those screws are not Philips. They are JIS (Japanese Industrial Standard). The reason they are always stripped is because people use Phillips screwdrivers on them.
Thanks mark. I need to get myself a set.
@@Schneids15 I have an old King Quad in my shop that I'm doing carb work on. Even though I have worked on many back in the day, this one is the first in a long time so I watched your video to freshen up. It was very informative and helped me. Thanks.
cleaned mine now it will not start as before start would stay not idle but would run when throttled up
Josh, when you buy rebuild kits for these carbs, who do you order from, I look them up and there are hundreds of sites, and thanks again Josh your vids are very informative..
Hey! I ordered from royal distributing. My blue atv has a 6sigma jet kit in it off ebay and it runs amazing
@@Schneids15 Thank you Josh, it's gonna be my first time trying, wish me luck, and thank you so much..
Hi Schneids 15 I was wondering how I would rise up my idle speed on my 1994 king quad 300 ? it will die most of the time, when idling... There should be an ajusting screw somewhere ????? than you !
Hi, lovely video !! I have the same carb and having vaccum problem to the fuel pump. What do you think about it ?? thanks , Gus
What is the brass cylinder next to the pilot screw? It has a hole in it does that need to be cleaned? If so how?
Hello sir I'm doing a carb rebuild on 2002 suzuki vinson auto is the float bowl needle seat supposed to come out I've been trying with pliers kinda gouge it a little
The vinson carbs may be different so i can’t guarantee it will come out. Joeh
Good video. Helped me clean mine. Now it runs but I can't get it to idle for the life of me. Can u post link to rebuild kit??
The low speed jet is plugged you need to clean it by pokeing a wire thru the jet. Its a tiny hole but it can be cleaned
@@rokitman5753 yup. That's exactly what it was. Little bitty ass hole was clogged. Used a torch cleaner. Runs like a beast now 💪 😎
Had someone professionally rebuild this carb on my king quad 300 and it never would idle and would rev up constantly/backfire like it was getting too much fuel. I took it back apart and adjusted like you did and now it will idle, but if I try to touch the throttle it will shut off. Any suggestions? I have tried moving the pilot screw to 2, 2.5, and 3 turns with very little difference. Throttle issue is still the same. Thank you!
Thank you.
I can't get my carb on my 99 suzuki king quad ltf300f to run right I am getting close but it still dies it will pull start will 3 pushs of the throttle and the chock on it will stay started intell you take the choke off the air screw is set to 1 1/2 turns and the needle is on the 3rd clip from the bottom what should I do I don't got the manual
Is the intake on when trying this? Have had issues with then running lean with intake off.
@Schneids15 yes it is
Thankyou so much!!!
Hi Schneids, I have a king quad 300 with a mishmash of Chinese and stock carburetor parts. What’s really interesting is that the plastic piece in the middle that guides the slide and holds the emulsion tube wasn’t seated right- carb was flooding right out. It has these plastic ears that stopped it from going down into the bowl far enough. Cut those off and now she’s running nicely, but lean. What I am curious about though is if it’s for the wrong carburetor. Would you mind sending me a close up picture of the throat of the stock carburetor from the air filter side? If it looks pretty close to mine I’ll spend the money on OEM jets to finish the tune up. Thanks!
I better not try this. The atv man here in town is 4 weeks behind. Mine dripping gas bad, and it's deer season 😥 thanks for the video
I have a 97 arctic cat 300, which I believe is the identical motor. I was told the valves needed adjustment so I bought the feeler gauge and got them to .002 intake and .004 exhaust. It’ll spit and sputter but not start. I’m at tdc on the compression stroke as well but I don’t know if I’m doing it wrong. I heard on a video that u need to go just past tdc but haven’t tried it. Is there any way that the timing may be off and if so is it easy to time the engine? I’m desperate so please,please, please; can you point me in the right direction as far as what might be wrong.
Should be at TDC not past. If your valves are set i am wondering if it is carburetor related. Will it start with a shot of starting fluid or brake cleaner or gas in the intake?
Schneids15 it will chug a little bit after it’s turned over for 15-20sec. I even had it running at one point but it wouldn’t idle or run smooth unless I had the rpms thru the roof. Is it possible the timing is a little off?
What about a rebuilt kit? Im missing the spring on my 2000 kq
What would cause this quad to start and run good for the first few minutes then rev super high and die in neutral or once I put it in reverse?
Sound’s like the quad is running super lean and could be revving up because of that. When warming up is the choke on?
@@Schneids15 yes choke is on. Seems to die the moment I turn choke off. I spray starting fluid into the air filter and it drops RPMS to a normal idle and then after it burns off it shoots back up in RPMS again. I tried taking the air filter off with no difference and the intake boot and all other connections seems to look solid.
Hey Josh...I have a tiny black O-ring left over. I think it goes on the needle screw. The one that is screwed all the way in, then backed-off 2 and 5/8 turns. I don't think you removed it in this video. Is that where it goes?
Hey Ron. Man i would have to look at the diagram. I don’t think there is a o ring in there. Josj
So I cleaned it and replaced the gas cap, my house still smells like gasoline. What could it be? Do the gas tanks go bad?
Check your fuel pump. If they go bad there is a pin hole on the side that will leak if the diaphragm goes bad. If it is that bad maybe park it outside to be safe.
