      Semi pro tip (aspiring to be a "Professional youtube keyboard Wizard)- light gas in airbox, burn ATV.
      The rest of it (you already had the tip)
      Do it in garage, prevent mice from getting in your home. (only affective if house is attached to garage)😂❤

    Last Oct, I bought a 2000 Polaris Trail Boss 325 for $400 beans. I went through the entire machine. I had bent valves and a snapped timing chain. Replaced all that and put in a new piston and rings. New front and rear rotors, calipers, and pads, tires, both brake handles, seat cover, rear shock, a-arm bushings, exhaust seals, CVT belt, drive chain and sprockets, used OEM carb, and new handle bar. I have 1600 into it, and it runs out nice. Not the most awesome ATV, but it's fun for me (I'm an old man).

    I have had 5 of these over the years. They are great, super reliable even when completely worn out. The suspension is stiff but robust. Great machines, not as refined as the Honda Recon but there is a reason Yammy never really changed anything but the plastic for 20 years. It works, every time.

    For a quad that was passed down in the family a lot they sure didn't take care of it😢, you would think they would have. Because you would think it would have some sentimental value to it but I guess not lol. My Dad has a Yamaha Kodiak 450 that I grew up riding and those Yamaha quads last forever when taken care of properly. It has a slight stutter but never fails to start up and is very reliable. I love that quad.

    Great video. When I was 7 or 8 years old my dad bought a red one like this brand new in 1996 it being a 1997 model except ours was a two-wheel drive and not a 4. I drove that thing hard for many years, it never stayed in the garage whether it was summer or winter it was always outside, we used it to plow snow and since it was a two-wheel drive we had to put tire chains on it with multiple bags of sand on the rear rack, when I turn 12 I got a job at a farm about 3 miles away one way and I drove this thing there everyday back and forth for 2 years. We never had a problem with this thing, it always ran greet until we put these ginormous balloon mud tires on it. They were so big that they just barely rubbed against the fenders in the rear. Anyhow one day I was pulling a small spring tooth with-it to work up the ground for a garden I was making and all the sudden the rear end started making a grinding crunching noise then it stopped moving so we pulled fulfill plug and looked in there with a flashlight and all you could see was chunks of gear laying at the bottom inside the rear diff. Now looking back at it and now being smarter and wiser I wish I would have replaced the diff which would've not been that hard but being young and clueless we just junked it out. Anyhow great video, it brought back memories after watching this video

    I have the same Timberwolf. The entire drive line and diff were wiped out. Found ring and pinion as well as bearings. But if anything else is bad i couldn’t find any parts. A few very rough used ones. But even then just rebuilding the diff and replacing the axle was about $500.
    Valves were mid adjusted and a manual timing chain adjust was put on it before me. Fixed all of that. I also had similar carb issues. I simply replaced it with with a new $26 unit. While the carb was the same, it had all of the wrong jets. I just cleaned up the originals and used them. I also lowered the main jet a few percent. It was too rich for my elevation. I also had to replace almost all of the rear brake parts and all of the cables. But the battery was good! It’s been a year round rider and still runs like new. I also have a 1980 AC Panther that runs like new. Love fussing with old junk too!

    The fuel in the air box probably came from the carb. With th condition the carb was in. On my go kart the pump pushes so much fuel into the carb the float don't hold it back and it flys out of every hole it can get to. Which is usually the intake side

    Compared to the last one like that I had come in here, That's a cadillac. Looks like a blast. It's cool watching you work on these like an old pro. Your doing a great job. It's hard to be a master of all the machines, but getting familiar with them is a great thing to have in your pocket for the future. Being a master tech is about specializing in specific brands and when possible, attending their service tech academies. It took me 3 years to get Yamaha, Kawasaki, Honda, Suzuki and Polaris. MMI was huge stepping stone for me starting my OHV repair shop. Wish my apprentice had half the natural talent you have. We love to chill in the shop and watch your vids when you post them.

  • @georgegoulborn4162
    @georgegoulborn4162 ปีที่แล้ว

    if you want to move your hover craft, I would try to lift the back end and put a piece of plywood under. then do the same for the front end. then get yourself one more piece and put it length ways on a couple of 2x4's and you can winch it onto a trailer and take it back home and get it where you can work on it when you get what u need to finish it. great deal on this machine!

I purchased it from the original owner. He was too scared to drive it. It’s only got 5 miles on it. Clean the carb, replace the battery change the spark plug. Still can’t get it to start. I just remember when removed the old spark plug it was a little wet should I take the top head off or should I grease it? Well put oil down there and try to use let it sit overnight or something. Appreciate the videos a lot new subscriber about a week ago. Hope to hear from you soon thanks.

    I love the simplicity of these types in regards to doing valve adjustments, as opposed to having to shim them. But I remember when I was younger we had an 87 trx250x, I've always preferred 2 wheels over 4 but I liked that biker it ran great and it was fun, BUT the valves would come out of adjustment EVERY SINGLE TIME IT WAS RIDDEN. I remember it being impossible to start and my dad doing valve adjustments Everytime we wanted to run it. Wonder if it was a fluke with that bike or if other bikes with that type of valvetrain were capable of the same issue? 🤔

    That's a steal, a great deal, don't understand the topic headline comment. Attention to watch post. Perhaps. that's a great find, polish up the plastics, paint the frame and rims, that is a good atv there. Easily profit maker to sell, worth $1200, all day.

    I've had one since new. My shifter handle broke off while using a similar blade setup. I just use a little lever bolted to forward and reverse shift shaft since the break. It will run forever. The fuel petcock drip leak on yours looks like it needs to be fixed too, a common problem. Maybe dripped in time with the jammed float and blocked vent into the airbox?

    It's float needle sticking from the main jet is clogged up.& That choke lever missing is another problem to. Cause it has to be on it.

    For a starter on the hovercraft. Check with Kastner Auto Electric in Waukesha, Wi. They rebuild starters and i had them do some odd ball stuff for me in the past.

    Always check the float bowl fuel height. Float height could be wrong.

    One simple trick to a clean air filter, fill the airbox full of gas.

    When checking your float height use the other side of the caliper and rest the internal measure leg on the surface of the bowl flange…. Allows you to get a little closer to the float and steady reading cause you are holding it down to a surface instead of lining it up at 2 points

    Just a note like using P.B Blaster, Google battery renewal , UT actually works, I did it for my tractor batteries as well as my van. And there is also a way to bring your lithium ion batteries for your power tools ba k to life , these batteries would last forever if we all knew how to charge them correctly and now my power tools " of everything " I have now are going on 5 years and they still work like new, just a note ! Hate the " Ney Sayers " on all these sights , crazy ass people !! Glen from Wisconsin

    He plug the vent to keep the gas from coming out which forced it into the air box.. I had this happen on a brand new carb once except I fixed the float needle and fixed it.. I didn't plug the vent tube..

    Check with WW electric motors in Oshkosh they might be able to completely rebuild the starter for that hovercraft

    Timber wolf is a good rig. After ya'll cut that damn muffler off and put a good muffler on it. Now check the diff seals front and rear. Yee said the boots were toast on axels but after ya'll flushed the dirt out ya'll probably have to drain the front diff and get rid of all that and dump both while at it Joe. Sounds and runs great. Good job boyo. I would also move that blamed winch and heal that clutch cover, maybe riveted on aluminum.

    2vintage Take the bags off your hover craft and store them inside. They rot out quick especially if they are touching the ground!!! Love your show buddy you're the man!

    I wish I didn't live far from ya. I would have ya fix up this old fourwheeler that was givin to me a couple years ago. I done some work on a relatives's boat and he gave the quad to my son cause i fixed his boat motor. I'm in Indiana, about 3 and a half hours from Wisconsin. Would be nice if I lived closer, this quad would give ya atleast 2 or 3 good videos cause it needs some TLC, I haven't had any time cause I drive a semi for a livin. Love the video, keep up the great work man.

    Have you ever thought about just having the starter for your hovercraft rebuilt? You might not be able to find a starter but I’m sure that they can find parts to rebuild it.
