@@2vintage so happy new year from still 2021
We really appreciate these back to back post thanks dude we understand this isn't just a hobby it has become a job and way of life and no one wants to work on the holidays enjoy your new year
Here's a secret put a reflective orange triangle on the back of the quad its now a farm implement and legal to ride no cop will give you a ticket ever 😉 happy new year
You can use the old oil to weather treat the wood on your trailer. It will protect it very well. It's worked for my trailers very well. Just a thought.
My dad (carpenter) says:
only use lanseed oil because it gets hard. Make it hot so it soaks in better.
good idea. we poured ours over fence posts when I was a kid, so the naughtier horses wouldn’t chew them. it worked well, but probably not EPA recommended. Happy 2022 to ya.
You can use old oil for chainsaw bar oil. Works great.
Yeah and EPA wouldn't care
Or use a oil burner lol it's freezing in Camden isn't it
Looks like a completely different machine, looks great. I've never understood why people paint something like that that looked good already. Nice job, and will save a lot of shoveling lol.
Thanks, yeah I never get that either! Yeah has already saved me a lot of time!
Me neither dumb!
All of our toys came to us in the same way. Sitting, neglected and in need of carb work. My boys and i work through them just like you. Most recently we got a one year old 120 CC Chinese four Wheeler totally free. Bought for Christmas last year driven until the carb plugged up and then sat. I once had a really nice XR 200 that got rockers, jug, rings. But you know as well as I do just clean the carburetor and/or replace you yes usually a couple of other small things and cool toys for cheap. Appreciate watching what you do give me motivation to go out and work at the end of every video.
This Chinese fool really was so new it still had the nubs on the tires. Tao tao t force.
Thank you man. Old soul.
That plow is a great brand. I have one like it with 15 years of hard abuse and it still works great.
You ALWAYS need to clean the needle seat on the carb when doing a carb clean. Use a Q-tip in a drill and coat it with an abrasive toothpaste like ultrabrite or closeup and flush paste out completely. You have had gas leaks often after “cleaning” the carb and it is NOT due to float height issues.
Amen! Had that very problem with mine. Cleaned the needle seat and it solved my issues.
absolutely. Had a friend "recommend" some fool mechanic, for an outboard tune up. I could have done it better myself, turns out the leakage was traced to him not doing that as well. Such a simple 10 second fix. Cost me 250 to have that done :(
Yes, that plow is supposed to have trip springs. With springs if you hit something solid the blade will collapse forward, that way you don't go sailing over the handlebars and/or damage your frame.
The plow looks like a smaller Cycle County, do a web search for this brand of plow, you should be able to easily find the replacement springs, and anything else you may need for it.
Thank you! I ended up getting some new replacement springs! They work great!
And you immediately start with good intentions for the new year! My best wishes for the new year & may you have a lot of fun with your hobby. And of course we hope you continue to share this with us, the public.
Them Honda 400 or 450 are on of the best quads Honda ever made I had one it was very reliable
Pretty good buy! I picked up a 2004 Sportsman 500 HO with plow for $1800 about a month ago. Replaced both clutches, belt, starter solenoid, carb and it's running great now.
Awesome! Those are pretty good atvs
ive been plowing with my rancher 400 with the hondamatic trans for 5 years. Its a fantastic machine. Take care of it and it will take care of you!!! Honda bikes are soooo WORTH fixing!!!
i have a foreman as well, these things are workhorses!!! You can't kill them, still an excellent machine depending on your intended use
Very nice job. I love those old bullet proof Hondas and always glad to see them get brought back to life.
Got a free Yamaha Kodiak 2000 all the same problems. 4 times on and off with carb now
running great plus plow....you remind me a lot of myself....you will go far....people need us
Looks like another good solid unit...great find...love your channel and content...keep the video's coming buddy...Happy New year...
Happy New Year! Thanks for watching!
A Qtip in a cordless drill with some metal polish cleans up the seat of a carb to a mirror finish, works great.
those honda 4wheelers will run forever my brother has a honda too and has had for over 20 years and it still runs great
I would have liked to see more of the actual work you did on this. Especially the brakes, carb., etc. thanks nice buy!
yes
I sold one of those except it was electric shift, no plow, and way worse shape for 1500.00. At 900 you did good.
Yeah I got a great deal on this one!
Hi! Good video and an absolute great deal on that ATV. When I got my Honda Rancher 350 last year it had been sitting and had a similar problem of not getting fuel from the gas tank. I “fixed” it in a similar fashion like you with compressed air. However, the fault came back and the carb even clogged up. The problem was that the internal fuel filter had been dissolved by the fuel when it was sitting and the rest of the filter kept clogging up the fuel line. I solved it by removing the fuel shut of valve, clean the tank internally, remove all residue of the old filter, then reassembled and added a inline filter. That finally worked and this summer I got a new fuel shut of switch with a new filter so everything is back the way it is supposed to. Since you had some dirt between your float needle and seat, I think you should check the status of that filter or at least put a inline filter between the tank and carb. Best Regards Nils from Sweden.
They are very reliable. The jets probably needs cleaning out by the look of the filter. But they run great. I have a o2 and its strong and fires up first hit everytime
It's nice to see you take pride in how the quad looks as well as fixing mechanical stuff. Nice work!
My plow has springs ! When I hit a bump it bends and comes back ! I basically did the same video you did but I relived a 2000 Grizzly 600 ! It's awesome !
Thats a sweet deal them drum breaks get adjusted through the red plug inside theres two adjusters probably both need to be backed off
Great job on that quad it looks like new again . I've been plowing with an ATV since 1986 . I started with a Big Red then moved up to a Yamaha Kodiak now I have Wolverine side by side. I built my own plows "too cheap to buy one" and those two chains on the plow should be replaced by springs. The springs are there to let the plow tilt forward when it hits a hard object . This will prevent the driver from being thrown over the handlebars or cause damage to the ATV.
You make it look easy. Very nice fourwheeler!
Man you made it look 100 times better ! Great job love it
What amazes me about you man is your rarely unable to complete a task, everything you come across you tackle it. I also notice you never ask for help. I’ve been watching you for years and you motivated me into doing the same thing your doing. who knows maybe you and a subscriber can do a will it run video!
And with basic hand tools. I think the only 'specialty' tool I have seen him use is a compression gauge and a flex hone brush.
Turn the carb onto it's top to remove the bowl screws. Will work much better and you get more pressure to not strip any.
What a difference a little bit of cleaning can make. Amazing find there. Yep! Keep up these great videos. Take care from Canada eh!
What a find, what a fantastic job, looks amazing 👍🏴🍀🙏
Thank you!
Just got my stepson a 300 fourtrax for xmas and he smiles every time he pushes the start button and it bumps rite over even when it's cold
That's a great gift!
@@2vintage ain't nothin better than a Honda even the clapped out ones still run decent
You have to be super careful with taking the choke cable out of the carb. The break really easy when they’ve sat forever. I broke ours while taking the carb apart. They’re very easy to find though. You also have to be careful with the primer pump on the carb. Ours started leaking after I cleaned the whole carb. They’re also very easy to find. It’s all better now though.
Thats the deal of 2021 for you. You can aell that for a pretty penny. I enjoy your videos. Happy new year
What a steel!!! Wish I could find deals like that down here where I live in Canada specially on something like a foreman!! Wouldn't mind owning one as they're my favourite fourwheeler
You got another great Deal Joe, look's Nice and it's a low mile Honda way to go 💰😀
Beautiful job of this Quad. Love the restore video, from old to new.
Love your videos. So enjoyable to watch. I'm fixing up an old Polaris Magnum 325 myself - loving every minute (except waiting for parts to reach the UK).
Great video! Made yourself a good purchase of this little quad. Your neighbors will be happy to have you plowing their driveways for sure. Thanks again for your time today. I did notice that you have a new truck. What did you get?
$900 was a great price for a machine that you can hear the engine run. I paid $500 a few weeks back for a 2004 Foreman 450 with the engine locked. It had locked the piston on the wrist pin due to low oil. I got it broke down, and the top end rebuilt and it runs good now, but I am a little over $900 into it now. These old machines are tough as nails. Nice score!
One hell of a steal on that. I have the same quad with a 60 inch plow but mine is electric shift. Only thing I don't like about it
I've got a 05 John Deere atv with probably the same issue, only runs on full choke, been putting off working on it, hesitant about carb work. This video gives me the push I needed to dig into it. Thanks!
I just picked up a 98 400fw
Similar to this project, old plower/farm work horse. Put a new coil, voltage reg & tires on it. Now it runs & rolls ! No garage so the real work starts in spring. Cool machine though👍
back in 2010 I bought a 2001 450 foreman, it was beat when I bought it, I rebuilt the top end, replaced every bearing and bushing, all new wheels, tires shocks, its got a brand new ring gear and rear axel with just one ride on it I put new grips, new factory decals a disc brake kit, shes mint now, but back in 2015 the same weekend I put the new rear end in I also bought a brand new 700 grizzly, The honda has pretty much been parked since then, I always intend to dig it out of the garage and take it for a spin but I never do. I just can't bring myself to part with it though since I have put so much time and effort into it.
Happy new year to ya joe and your vids still entertaining me lol keep them going and next time u race things tell your bro to where a helmet rock on
Best RUclipsr I’ve been watching for over 3 years now and I still get hyped when he shows up to his parent’s 🤣
I have the same quad with 5200 miles. It’s still a champ. Use it on the farm quite often.
What a beauty! Nice transformation and sweet deal!!
Thanks for another very interesting and entertaining video! You sure make these projects look easy peasy! Happy new year
Glad that you had some snow...us folks down in the south don't get to have any fun..another good video...I don't suppose you run across any Bayou's???
That is a Cycle country plow...just needs some TLC...go thru it ..fix a few things...bingo!
My 2004 Arctic Cat 400 has ditto issues. Thanks for sharing. I need to do a total rebuild this spring.
The paint I used for the plow is VHT paint. By far the best I have found: amzn.to/3F8DFb4
Outstanding job, it's even got aftermarket wheels!
Someone can start a business with that joe! Great vid Happy New Year
We have 2, a 99 es that no longer runs but has 9000+ miles and I still have the 03 es and it has 11,500 miles on it and it’s still going. Only problems are the electronic shift and I have a foot shift welded to it just in case but in my opinion these are the best utility quads you can buy. You can go through so much including snow drifts
Fix the electronic shift it’s very easy to, you are going to damage the internal shift mechanism but shifting a es machine manually all the tome
@@TheHomePros6221 I agree. I honestly haven’t ridden it much since it happened. It was on there when I got it from my dad. I’ve changed a ton angle sensors on it. Honda dealer told me to order a “plug and play” bypass kit for $100 on eBay and he said it’ll fix the problem. Do you have any suggestions?
Awsome find for 900👍 use it to plow in the winter and sell it when summer comes back
I'm just glad your wear the Carhartt symbol to the side, and not straight on like some of these amateurs.
the neighbours will love you this time for clearing the snow,,""BROWNIE POINTS""
Great job looks like it just came off the show room floor
That blade is a three way one. If you push down on that lever you can rotate the blade to help push the snow to one side.
Good deal. Looks way better without the goofy paint. Definitely springs go where those chains are.
That plow needs some trip springs for sure, you got a nice work horse there.
Nice machine. Practically brand new. You got an awesome deal. I'd keep it. Only thing better would be a riding mower with a plow or snow blower on it.
oh and yeah there should be kick springs on that plow replace them before you chip out your plow.... you gotta a great worker there in that honda!
Yep I alresdy bought the springs for it!
Looks awesome man. Super good find
Probably the best $900.00 you ever spent..great buy...I had one just like it...What else can you say...ITS A HONDA!!
great video. Thanks
Wow, you really scored a great deal on that 4 wheeler!
Man you should make driveway plowing videos with this beast!!!POV
Nice one, came out great, happy new year from sweden
Great purchase, you fixed it up good. 2 shames involved 1 the seller upping the price and 2nd the wanted to be owners that got her thinking about it. She needed to pull the ad right away, adjust the price with a new listing.
Love your videos buddy keep them coming and happy new year
I am the original owner of a 04 ES. Other than cleaning the Carb, and a couple of batteries, it has been problem free.
My neighbor has 2 Honda foreman up in Maine and there really fun too ride up the muddy mountains and snow
An excellent reason to brush grease on the threads for next disassembly time
yeah that whole thing with the people re-negoatiating after you started driving has happened to me on my last 5 projects atleast, they sold them all from under me because they would offer more after we agreed
Yeah it's very bad business. I hate when people do that!
Great job. One of you most successful turnarounds.
And yes the plow does need springs good plow though looks pretty bullet proof they live a hard life
Oh that old girl looks a lot better. I have a 2001 Honda Foreman 500 ES we take ours out trail riding a lot.
Great video man even better deal on the bike. With a little bit of time and a few parts you got a bike worth 4 grand. Great Job Pal 👍👍👍👍
I have a friend who owns a auto parts store and a oil change shop, heats His shop with used oil. He got a unit that is set up o burn oil. It works good.
WOW WHAT A DIFFERNCE WITH A CLEAN,NICE JOB
I’ve had a couple foreman’s and I’ll tell you this machine will last forever
I thought you would find this video!
Lol hey nils!!
Happy new year !! 2Vintage
Good job !! Happy new Year US Love from the UK
I would take the p-low off, snow blowers are much easier to use, they do a better job and it's a lot quicker. Those old Honda's are bullet proof. Great job!
You got a deal on that, and the low mileage that floored me, great job👍
2Vintage I've owned 3 mini bikes 6 dirt bikes 1 ATC & 1 ATV. Honda mini motos, CRF50F, CT70 K2, TL 125, MX 100, DS 100, DT 200R, DT 400, ATC 250ES & Suzuki LTF 230
Nice Pickup. it runs & idles because Honda. Cheers
That little primer thing on the carb bowl is probably rotten. Mine sat a couple years and the thing fell apart when I took it off.
Loved the video. What did you use on the plastic? Dang that looks mint.
I'm live in middle eat TN and you have inspired me to make and offer on the same quad in my area.
Awesome job bike looks much better! Also you might want to spool out the winch cable and coat it with grease to prevent it from rusting further than it already has, of course this is only a suggestion
I put old motor oil on mine.. worked great.. until I snapped it.. so I went with a rope type setup. Definitely a improvement
That was awesome on that paint stripper application
That thing turned out amazing. What a steel for $900
That's probably the stock air filter in the carb seems to be standard if not running
That rack on the side of the four wheeler was for a gun man. I still got one on the side of my ATV
I’ve had plugged / obstruction in the exhaust of the last 3 ATVs we’ve resurrected.
Mice nest , residue carbon goop from aged sitting intermittently
Yeah the mice like the exhausts lol
Nice transformation from clunked to runner .I love my Grizzly and plow.
my cousin has a foreman 450 with over 10.000 miles on it never been rebuilt Honda tough!!
