KLF-220 Bayou '99 ( Checking / Setting Timing )

  • 1999 Klf-220 bayou not starting easily and running very rough. Timing was off. Checked for spark and fuel and all was fine. This is just a reference for what I found causing my issues. It seemed like it was an ignition issue since it would idle smooth at 1/4 throttle I figured it had ignition. Any more throttle and it would sputter, and choke off once the throttle was released. As I said in the clip my root cause is a stretched timing chain, and worn tensioner pad. This is letting the chain flop around while its running ( I can hear the rattle). I think but am not positive, that if I cut the engine off using the key instead of the stop switch it will sort of back fire, causing the timing to get off due to the stretched chain. Just a theory though. I hope this helps because I could not find anything, anywhere on the proper way to check the timing on this ATV. This may not be the proper way either but It started first pull after I did it and the atv has more pep than ever now. Who knows how long it was a little off time.

    My Wife's just picked up a KLF300. Has been sitting around for quite sometime. Fuel was more like kero or terps. BLoke she got it from said timing was out. I had replaced the carbie with a brand new one, as they're quite cheap and an easy install, after cleaning out the tank and putting in fresh fuel. got charge in the battery and was just popping out the exhaust. I will check the chain timing and see how we go. Thankyou for an excellent video. Nice and easy to understand and straight to the point!.

      How did you time your camshaft ? Did you loosen the bolt on it and spring the ring or move the chain around it?

    from the service manual: in order to rotate the engine to TDC, remove the pull start assembly. It's 5 bolts, no gasket, easy to do. Then rotate the engine counterclockwise to TDC. No need to remove the cam gear cover for this procedure.

      Nate T. Yeah but you can't change timing by doing that

    Great video! I found the T rotates twice for each time the top chain wheel rotates so sometimes the T shows when the dot is on the bottom...how do u know which T the top dot should be at or does it not matter?

    • @vernonbosshard9317
      @vernonbosshard9317 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Remember the crank turns twice to one time of the cam, so the T will line up twice, cam dot at top and cam dot at bottom for the next revolution,, its normal and both ways are the same, but line up dot at top because the mark is there.

    I can barely hear you in this video :/ It sure would help me, because my bayou is running a little tough also. But do you know where the idle pin is?

    i have a 1984 yamaha 200 shaft drive and the timing chain fell off of my lower sproket and i was able to get it back on but the problem i am having is i cant line the timing back up i have tried setting the flywheel to the "F" the "T" and the straight line and everytime i try i have my top sproket lined up so i guess my question here is is there anyway to line this all up without taking the flywheel out?

    • @EasternExplorer

    I have the same bayou but when I try to put it exactly on the T mark it moves forward just a little bit and my cam be exactly with that little mark but my T don't and yes I have to accelerate it to get it to crank so it might be off timing rite??

    I just put a new piston jug assembly on my bayou 220. After install, something was wrong. Pulled timing cover and figured out timing gear wasn't turning when engine turns. Figured the chain must not be on teeth of gear on crankshaft and its just sitting beside the gear. Is there an easy way to get it back on?

      @@isaacvisser2904 I did. Thanks. It was fun reaching down into the crankshaft from the top with a flashlight and piece of wire to manipulate chain. Finally got it.

  • @nicholashunnefeld8830

    Does it back fire if it is off timed? Cause my 250 backfires really bad when I ride it.

    Okay well I accidentally gave the chain too much slack an it jumped off the sprocket on the crank. What do I do?

    • @bassmechanic71
      @bassmechanic71  10 ปีที่แล้ว

      Try to fish it out with a stiff wire (hook) or magnet. Try not to push it further down, only pulling it up. Good luck bud.

    • @QZPZ
      @QZPZ 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      The chain came off the sprocket on the crank. It didn't fall down inside. I had looped some wire thru the chain beforehand

      Line your marks back up and put the chain back on. When you adjust the tensioner, leave the side cover off the head to check the slack in it as you adjust it.

      I don't think you guys understand. I can't get the chain back on. Not on the camshaft but on the crank

      bus driver I’m having the same exact issue.. It sounded like a Cdi box so I ordered a “new” one off eBay and installed it and still doesn’t get spark.. and I can’t make myself by an actual brand new one from the dealer for 500 considering I paid 300 for the four wheeler.

    midtnbulliesable, No it wouldn't (shouldn't) shoot into the motor because it presses against a tension lever that pushes on the chain.
