The cam pulley wrong way round was a good sign of things to come.
No doubt, apparently some wanna be has had his sick skinners in there 😂 you can always tell right off. Silicone around shit, like that stator coil, I’d have ripped that outta there as soon as I saw that. I’ve done it for a long time, I see one too far gone I send it down the road.
Warrior's are fun quads, people beat the heck out of them sometimes its hard to find one in nice shape, great video man
Yeah man these things will take a beating too! I learned how to ride on one and I finally bent the valve so bad the shop put it on display when I had them fix it hahaha but she ran like new again and I kept on beating it for another 3yrs till I sold it...
The warriors will always bring good content. Good solid quad that appeals to everyone one way or any other, and it’s always funny to see the hack stuff people do to them too lol
Ya my dad has an 86 all og plastics and seat and every thing it was the last thing his dad bought him before his dad died
I rebuilt and restored a 1988 model last summer in a 4 month period. Spent $4k total on project and it was a stupid waste but a good learning experience. And it’s a fun quad
I love your vids! I’m making my way through them all and am about 75% through them. I wish your vids were around back when I was younger and riding dirt bikes! It must be so gratifying to be able to diagnose & repair these machines to proper running condition. I have a great amount of respect for you! Thank you for sharing!
Been watching for years , I never comment but, really enjoy the videos! Just bought a 2007 raptor 700r, mint condition
Thanks for watching! And can't go wrong with a Raptor 700!
Hey Joe, you've got some great content on your channel. Much respect to you for your mechanical ability. I also appreciate your sincere interest in wanting to help others. Keep up the good work!
You seem to have bought a number of machines from this racer #69. Must be a good guy.
pickup coil on these are known for going bad...also I have extra warrior parts (flywheel w one-way,side cover,stator,ect.) that I'll give you if you want to pay shipping.
That was my very first ATV…97 Warrior 350…same color too. Bought it new in 97 for 4600 out the door. Sold it in 2003 to a co-worker whom still has it today, but doesn’t run now.
I rebuilt a 98 warrior last yr, & added a wiseco 10.25:1 piston, stage 2 hotcam,K&N air filter, FMF header, HMF pipe & it def wakes that engine up. It’s not Z400 fast, but it’s def better than stock. Also…put the OEM carb back on. I messed around for ever with a $40 Chinese carb…it ran but ran like crap. I broke down & finally bought an OEM carb, & bam, started right up & idled great.
Another great vid…enjoy seeing the nitty gritty of doing a rebuild. Whomever worked on that last sure didn’t pay attention to the small details that matter 😳
You definitely have your hands full with this project Joe, its definitely going to cost some money to fix this one!!
It amazes me the stupid stuff that people try and do to these atv's and bikes lmao. i absolutely hate when ppl just paint over everything without a care in the world!
Keep up the great work Joe we know you will get this ol girl running again !!
Where I live if theres spray painted atv dirt bikes chances are tweakers have had there fair share time with it .and theres a 75 percent chance of it being stolen unfortunately
@@THatChevyguy91 man sounds like you live where I do haha thats so true 👍 thing has been touched by the hands of a tweeker
@@THatChevyguy91 oh and forgot to add the zip ties dead give away haha
@@chadnikkisheppard4937 haha yes after the crackheads get to them they dont have the best of chances.
I just picked one of these a week ago, if I ever have to do any work on it this vid will help a lot. Thanks for making these vids, they’ve saved me a ton of time and money
The warrior balance shaft knock on start up.. motor sounds good.
Choke, best way to start. They do clunk a bit until they start. Oil pump, starter gear? They sit stupid low. When it started it sounded right, like the ones I got here. I've got a parts bike I can snag the rear shock off for ya. Let me know. Happy to help!
Dude your channel is blown up over the years. I remember when you were at 50k subs. Best repair channel from a solo mechanic on RUclips!
I enjoy watching your videos. Something relaxing about watching you resurrect old bikes and quads. What do you do with them? Do you sell them to buy more bikes and quad’s? I would like to see you expand into restoration. finish the bikes with paint, powder coat, or ceracote. But got to keep the videos under :20-:30 minutes. Maybe break them up into two parts. Just my .02$. Keep it up!
Good idea 👍
If the term ricer could be applied to an ATV this would be a good candidate. Warriors are great machines and I'm sure you'll have it back working properly in no time. Good job Joe !
Well hopefully u save the Warrior these things are becoming few and far most people clap them out and then leave to sit and rot and it's sad because these are great starter bikes for kids and women honestly to get out there and hit the trails especially seeing they have reverse there awesome for trails
this is a really solid video on just how to troubleshoot basically an entire warrior lol. learned a lot from this
Man, I love Warriors. Just a damned good trail/sport bike.
I've had two warriors, definitely my favorite quads. Unfortunately one blew up and the other had "work" done to it and didn't handle well
Alot of people feel that way because they never rode real sport quads. Keep in mind these were some of the models that started sport quads. Great trail machines.
@@4.5.0.Garage very true. A lot of people started on either a Warrior or a Quadsport. They were the pioneers. I’d definitely never put them up against the hardcore sport bikes. But, they brought a real joy in their own way
@@subaruxv19 they’re really great bikes. I wish that parts nowadays were easier to come by
Ain't a 400 ex any better than as in terms of power I've rode both I prefer tho Honda but this isn't much of a difference love the air cooled motors tho
Been watching and learning from ur videos couple years now great job. The washer u found is a spacer n the clutch basket
The warriors have been hell on stators. Stators feed rectifiers and those charge battery. Food fo thought.
Me and my buddy went to an auction yesterday and picked up a 350 warrior for $650, gotta put a new carb, intake, filter and do an oil change and she will be a ripper. This video will help a lot when parts arrive.
Awesome find!
Just don’t get a Chinese carb, they are never machined correctly and you’ll have a nightmare of a time trying to get it to run right
@@tpghl5225 if the $50 one don’t work from eBay then I’ll just buy a rebuild kit for the mikuni carb that’s on it.
6spd is great, late 90s bikes had stator issues a lot. Good luck. It'll fix up well. Great vid!
Just got my 97 RM125 back together yesterday and I was excited after rebuilding the exhaust/powerband valves. Switched it to what FMF recommends to jet your bike for that year and I kicked it over and the RPM’s shot straight through the roof so I’m going to take apart csrb again and go back to the 170 jet and not the 172 I put it in
I assume that’s what it is since I never had carb issues prior to my top and bottom end rebuild. If you have any tips man I’ll take them. I’ve learned a ton from the channel already with my year bike.
Just bought a $600 87 warrior 350 4 days ago everything stock had original oem filters they were all beat up never changed then I was like maannn here comes the good part oil change thinking 🤔 there was gonna be metal shavings and I was surprised no shavings I was like yesss no shavings just dirty old black oil 😆.... Been watching your videos for a while keep up the good 👍 bike work and thanks for your time
They have electrical issues a lot and sometimes the harness melts but if you sort all that out they will run forever😎
Hey brother, I know I have given you some flak about safety, but that was my career at one time. however, before finding your site, I knew very little about motorcycles. I look forward to your posts, daily. You are one sharp cookie. l am into cars. I had a bad experience with motorcycles, watched my younger brother go down in front of me riding my 1968 Kawi Mach 3 500. He hit an oil slick, dumped, spun out into an oncoming car and bounced off of the side of the side of it. Honestly, I thought he was dead. He was coughing up blood, scared the crap out of me, however, he had on a helmet, leathers and engineers boots. this was 1971. He is still kicking, talked to him last night. residual pain currently from that incident in his chest and upper back. So, BE CAREFULL!
Oh, and just to let you know since misery loves company. I'm in sorta the same boat. Bought a Traimaster 150 xrs kart a while back. It has a gy6 150cc honda clone. I got it really cheap, but it did not run. It actually looked overall to be in fair/good condition. but after I got it home and worked on it some, I found tons of stripped hardware and other little problems.
It didn't have an air filter on it, and the guy I got it from said a stray dog must have carried it away :) He wasn't the brightest bulb. Anywhoo, I figured he'd been riding it like that for a while so it likely needed a top end. No biggie. When I got it home, I checked all the usual, has oil, has spark (after a couple hours fixing some electrical issues) etc. Still won't run. I sprayed some brake clean in the carb. Nothing. Sprayed a little more. Nothing. Checked spark again. still good. Sprayed a little more, cranked it. It backfired and set the carb and heat shield on fire.
The heat shield is plastic, and was already in very rough shape, but I finished it off for good by killing it with fire :o Turns out it had a burned intake valve, which allowed ignited fuel to travel back out the intake side setting the WAY too much brake clean I sprayed on fire.
The intake valve was WAY too tight, and it had been burned pretty badly. The rings and cylinder didn't look great either, so I just got a new top end kit including new head, jug, piston, rings, and just replaced the whole thing. Got it all back together and in the kart. And it started right up!
Took it down the road and it died and would not restart. Had to do the push of shame back to the garage :( Long story short, bad cdi. That fixed the "runs for 1-2 minutes, then dies and loses spark" issue.
Now, I think. finally! I can take it for a rip. Nope... turns out that it starts easy, idles great, but will not turn more than about 3500 rpm. Anything more, and it acts like it is flooding. And when I WOT, it blows gasoline out of the carb...
Even longer story short, timing chain is so stretched, that the valve timing is several degrees off, no matter how I orient the cam sprocket. It's always too retarded or too advanced. New timing chain kit in the mail. Should be here tomorrow. I just finished taking it back out of the kart, and tearing it down and removed the old chain. I can flex it side to side about 5 inches :O
Hopefully, after the new chain gets here, it will FINALLY be running good. We'll see....
Not bad T all mine came from Idaho where it was flipped over and over down a 300' hill. I got it in pieces, asked to repair it, I did, guy said keep it he bought a new Raptor. I punched it out to a 420 completely repaired frame and plastics etc. Still runs great been almost 12 years. Wife's favorite quad, it's a 6 speed.
That oil pan had more metal flakes than a 60's paint job. I figured you would find something worse when I saw the rocker alignment to the valve. That's never good. I know you'll fix it though, that's why I watch!
Dope vid man.
Someone probably commented by now. But the bike would've started sooner had you not throttled it so much.
Theirs an accelerator pump on these carbs. So when you push throttle without it running, it's just flooding it out.
How this helps. Keep it up man
Had a Warrior that made a loud metal crunching sound years ago when I was slamming gears full throttle. Drained the oil and it looked very similar to what you found there. Bigger chunks, smaller chunks and metal shavings. Anyway, cleaned it up then replaced the oil. No idea what let loose because it still ran great, shifted through all the gears great and sounded fine. I assumed something broke in the clutch basket or a bolt came loose. Never did bother tearing it down to investigate further because it still functioned perfectly normal. They are tough machines.
First trail quad I ever had when I was like 12yrs old was a 87 Warrior that thing went threw hell and back was always a solid quad today I'm in my 40s and the quad is still around and running strong off the original bottom end only ever had valve adjustments and piston swaps these make great starters for kids to get out there and have a blast but they are getting really hard to find and If u do come across a good one the price isn't far behind a running 400 or 450
I would like to buy one of the quads that you work on. Big fan and I trust your work. I live in Wisconsin and will travel to get it
I wished you live in Atlanta you one of my favorite youtubers I love you videos I eat breakfast dinner and lunch I probably am watch all yours videos from years back
That almost looks like a washer off one of the cylinder head bolts...
Just picked one of these up ('99) for $350. Has street tires on it with full skid plates. It turns over but some parts are missing (in the mail) so I won't know if it runs until I get the key parts like an ignition wire that was missing the boot on the spark plug end which had a speaker wire wrapped around it. Yeah, my build will be fun...
Got a feeling the quad blew up before, they've done a bad repair or rebuild judging by the way the cam sprocket was put on backwards. I think they've had the head off or at least messed with the top end.
I think they've got the rockers mixed up and need swapping, that would account for why they don't sit right on the top of the valve. Washer off the clutch end shaft maybe?
love watching your content have learnt so much about stripping engines down
I Just picked up a 98 warrior and had to do a full rebuild can't wait to get it out and ride
think that has been thrown together by a ten year old that had no idea what he /she was doing, probably the same person that got handy with a paint brush
I always enjoy your videos and hope you great success. Why do you still not know that 4 stroke engines take 2 revolutions to complete all the cycles? T.D.C. happens once at power stroke and once at valve overlap! YOU CAN NOT SET VALVES AT OVERLAP!!!
Wellsaid
I would like to see a restoration on this quad
I also have a warrior but it’s fully stock and I take good care of it since I can’t afford a bigger one haha
Same i have an 04😂
It's not set up for racing it's just hacked you should know all about that
Hey lacker thinner.& boiled lenseed oil repairs the plastics on those atv's.& utv's&atc's to. You can even use A heatgun.,or tourche lightly over the surface of the plastics to.
I picked up one for $250 no start, found out someone put 2stroke gas in it, new plug + cleaned carb fired right up 👏🏾👏🏾
it didn't sound like it had a bad rod when it was running. Hopefully, the rod and crank are ok. If they are, then it might be salvageable.
I have a very clean low hour warrior still has the original tires and the oil filter looked very similar now the oil plug was a different story but the flakes in the filter hasnt stopped mine yet
Btw the only issue ive had with my 99 warrior is that it hates cylinoids and its on its 5th one. owned it since 2010 and my uncle was the original owner so its always been in good hands.
Hey Joseph. In the beginning of the video when you said that you purchased that warrior and another quad for $950 I thought: "Damn!! Four-wheelers must be cheaper where you live than where I live." However, after watching the entire video, I now know why you got such a "great" deal!! Lol. Anywho, I am looking forward to finding out where all those metal chunks came from. Hopefully, the warrior can be salvaged!! Another great video sir! Keep on rockin' rocker!!
i enjoy watching your videos wish they where a little longer my friend keep up the good work have a great day
I have an 04 warrior stock still runs like a bat outa hell ,always have her full throttle pinned on the trails never lets me down
Always wanted to put older yz490 air cooled motor on warrior chassis. Banshee killer.
I just found this channel- thanks for uploading. Really helpful. Is there anything that wasn't wrong with that quad?
Thanks for the good content! I really appreciate your channel and have learned a lot from it. Thank you!
Dude, you deserve a new machine!
Hell yea man, warrior gang here lol, I own some of these, 6 of them to be exact lol, just rebuilt my 87, got a few 87s and 88s and an 01 lol, does sound like the one way bearing is bad or going bad
love to find 80s maco 250 or 450
Those are great quads! I flipped 1 of them and am flipping a Yamaha raptor 350 today! Got it for 900$ and am selling it for 2600$ today
Nice job!
@@cadman9615 Thanks
I had a 98 warrior, I put a 2005 350 raptor engine on it when i had it. Also that is not the stock pipe that is on yours. Make sure you check the oil pump, every late 90's warrior engine I ever had, also had issues with a weak oil pump and then since no oil was getting to the top end, it would shear off the cam gear for the timing chain. That's why I put a 2005 raptor engine on and all I had to do was take the stator off the Warrior engine and put it on the raptor engine.
LOL What a crazy surprise you found inside lol Great vid brother, be safe :)
Yeah super fun surprise lol
@@2vintage lolol
I used to put put the smack down on my friends warrior back in the day with a 300ex with a rejet, filter, and dg slip on. I always wondered how I could beat him so bad having a smaller displacement motor. Warrior is like the girlfriend quad. Not too fast not too expensive. But sufficient for trail riding.
What happened to you rebuilding the raptor motor? We love watching your videos bub.
Its a great lookibg quad just needs to be a little bigger
hey man sometimes the parking break causes the warrior to not want to run
4 stroke quads so damn heavy. When it was squeaky all I could think about is how heavy warriors are lol
Very heavy for what it is
Hey dude been watching a lot of your videos I live in Birmingham Alabama and the used market is just refocus.do you have a cr 250 in good shape at a good price thanks love the videos you remind me a lot of me back when I was younger always looking for a good deal keep it up bro...
"Except it's not gold, it's disappointment!" LMAO! 😂
I got a warrior in this morning that s a huge pile of dookie, never been greased bent locked up swing arm bolt, axle and hub bent to hell. Has bout 90 psi compression, runs like crap but he don't want to address it.the entire silencer is fiberglass bondo from junction to tip. Sad too cause it's an 02. Sick world, gonna own em take care of em. You feel the same I know. Great vid, I will tell you those are infamous for frying stator. My wife's has been through 3 of em.
Got an 87, I'd love to see a 2 stoke conversation tho, they should of been 2 strokes, man pple in WI are so fair on the prices, over in Michigan you see guys asking 3k for their blown up clappers
Prediction: someone had tools and thought they were a mechanic.
True story.
Damn!!!! I'm looking forward to next video!
Your videos on the ds650 saved my butt and helped me tremendously! Now I have running but still have an issue I can't figure out. Absolutely love your channel and content man
Bad? 😂 We used to get motorcycles 2 strokes out of the scrap bin and make em go . Hell that's A complete Bike in the video, good tires all the plastic. I guess Bad is different for some than others. 👍
Man I have a 97 warrior just like that. Bought it kind of neglected also but once I fixed it up a bit it’s a great trail bike
Your videos are great to watch very interesting every video absolutely awesome
Thank you for watching!
can you do some trail riding,more
Yep
Good video joe will wait to see if it's going to live again or not although looks in pretty bad shape got to be worth it in the end for profit otherwise it's out the door for parts right take care mate look forward for what's to come 🔧🔧👍👌🔧
Good luck on that man also love the vids
I really enjoy your channel
Love the videos! Keep it up
Seem like everywhere you look it’s been tampered with in all the wrong ways lol😂 love your vids you got this!
The bairings you found in the oil isn't the one way bairings for the starter is it that's what I think
Probably a great candidate for parting out only because it would be a quad you would sell if you could fix it cheap. Based on this video that does not seem to be the case so parting out is what I expect.
That washer goes on the bolt for the cam gear
another reason it may be not starting is the intake make sure whenever u try and start it the intakes hooked up right i made that mistake and mine wouldnt start unless it was perfect
big yikes.. 2.5 hour drive ....ouch good thing you cranked it over for a half hour before ripping into it......
i think you found your knocking noise good thing it didnt start and man did that guy get over on you i hate that feeling
Watch the difference from before.& afterwards to good closely to.
figured you would have given up on warriors by now lol. you've definitely had a prizes
Yeah I should have lol
rod bearings and the bearing in the case crank bearing I think for the big ball bearing. needle bearing are the rod bearings. I hope the case is not cracked or broken. May be you will get lucky and you can just replace the crank bearings and rod bearings???? If so maybe a viewer has rebuildable motor.
The washer that you found could probably have fallen from the timing sprocket since it was backwards they probably dropped it and just put a new one
Can you make a video on doing wheel bearings?
Bearing material could be from your one way bearing
Maybe they repaired something and left the crap in there? Probably not though! Lol. My guess a kid learning and didn't take correct steps. Especially the cam gear being backwards. Someone been in that engine! You'll get it done though!!
Love it! Make this one work too please!
looks like the pick up coil should have a retaining plate with 2 screws
Got 2 warriors omg leaning curves harness never worked properly.
My Yamaha worrior had metal shavings and chunks in the oil and the filter everytime I changed the oil but never had a problem tho 😂
