- Step by step how to remove and replace bad carb that caused sputtering and Popping and bogging when trying to accelerate, would idle fine but wouldn't rev under load.
Usually caused by a bad float or blocked passage inside the carb. (Be sure to make sure fuel pepcock is working as it should, these machines are notorious for the diaphragm inside the pepcock to go bad... I replaced the one in this 4wheeler to rule it out is the equation with another pepcock that has an off feature Yamaha part number 21V-24500-20-00 which there is a number of videos on using this pepcock on these machines.)
You can rebuild a carb instead of replacing it with a new one, in this instance it was cost effective to get a new one for 90$ rather than pay 40$ for a rebuild kit and run the risk of missing something.

Great video. I was able to change my carb by watching your video. Thx
@@mtdawg747 glad it help 🤙🏻 cheers
Awesome that's just what I needed to know thank you
Great video!!!
Thank you!
Thanks a million times! Great video!
Its awesome how those Eigers are outlasting all the Vinsons due to their simplicity. A FUSE!! could shut my 4wd down and leave me stranded. WTF
Yeah those fuses can be touchy some days 😂 haha
Hi, nice helpful, and detailed video. My situation is, first it wasn't getting gas so I tested the vacuum petcock and witched it out for new Yamaha gravity flow one. It ran but you had to choke it a lot and then it would put gas into the airbox. So I bought a new carb - put it on and it's doing the same thing. It was a new carb so one would think everything, main jet, and float would be set to spec when built. What are your ideas, any would be appreciated?.
Hmmm, 🤔 not sure just double check all your lines are right and maybe adjust your throttle cable and see if it helps at all? And have you changed the spark plugs recently, cheap thing to cross off the list of possible issues. I'm no pro but happy to help spitball ideas. Thanks
@@Blakess2 I don't work on them every day so not a real pro either but can usually get the job done. It was an error on my part. One time or other, could have been before I first took the carb off, but when checking things over close on the vacuum lines I found the tube from the right rear brake backing plate ran up and was hooked onto the over - flo vent at the very bottom of the float bowl. I had to trace it in disbelief as I said to myself...Did I effing do that? I think the very first time I took the original carb off I threw the short vent hose in a little parts box and it got misplace or thrown away with me thinking I'd put a new one on. When I got to putting hoses and lines back on after I cleaned the original carb and put it back together I must have grabbed the extra-long brake shoe vent line that was up close near the carb with plenty of length and pushed it on the bottom bowl vent. After correcting and re-tightening things she fired right up idled good and purred like a wild - cat and didn't bog when given the gas. Sorry so windy here but this just shows the importance of checking your work over real good because it may be something as simple as a hose is hooked up wrong. I'm actually saving the original carb because it may be just fine. The aftermarket carb was not very expensive at all. Thanks for taking the time to make a video and posting...very helpful.
Hi, I have the same atv.. it starts fine but stutters bad when I give it gas. There's has inside the filter box too.... How did you know the difference between it being a petcock or carb? I'm trying to pin point the problem. Thank you for the video
Sorry I didn't see this till now I'm far to late I'm sure, but the petcock is way cheaper than a carb I would start with it. The little screens can get gunked up quickly and not flow properly ;/
Do you still have the 4 wheeler. If so. Can I ask a question where something goes
I do still have it well it's my old roommates but I can see if I can help 👍🤙
Hey i have the same bike. I sealed off the vacuum line since im using the other petcock but where do you run the vent hose?
Think I just ran it down to the ground kinda down the center of the bike
I have the same 4 wheeler. Can you post link of website where I can buy parts ??
I got them at a local shop, sorry I don't have a Website that I use
Could I contact you for a few more details on where the lines go for petcock and carb? I’m screwed right now.
Sure are you replacing the pepcock? Or just the carb
Hey where does that vacuum line up top run to exactly I can't figure it out
If you still have the factory fuel petcock valve then it goes right back to the same spot if you replace the valve like I did you can seal it off cause it's just vacuum from the carb some after market ones like the one I found doesn't need to have that vacuum hose as to it's only used by the oem fuel petcock. I replaced mine with one from another machine. It's listed in the videos description and I tried to show it best I could in the video thanks 🤙👍👍.
So I got the atv with changes already made I picked up an original petcock and installed it the quad wouldn't start so I put it back to the way it was when I got it and it won't run I checked the carb cleaned it and it's in great shape so I know it's not the carb
@@derekyoung3826 strange? This is a silly question but the fuel is in the "on" position? Gotta ask ive done that before it was stupid another thing to check is where the throttle cable is attached to make sure it's all in working order and the stop screw is adjusted right 🤷♂️
@@Blakess2 so the pet cocktail the in on it now is also messed up but I have modified it to be in the on position with out leaking if I pull the hose off fuel flows and as for the throttle cable I can find anywhere how to set it up properly but I believe I have it close enough to get some kind of engine start their is no slack and everything looks good
@@derekyoung3826 interesting well as long is has fuel it should fill the car with fuel have u check the spark plug to see if it's wet from gas from trying to start it, might be flooded? Or replaced the spark plug? I'm not a professional just a weekend guy 😂 haha
Where did you buy the carburetor from do you have a link.
I got it from a local atv/moto shop and just a generic one took the old one in And matched it up with one similar.
Ya me to
