i did that.. i can back it at all the way and nothing.. and i can put it in and after a couple of turns it starts to up the idle and then when i take it back out it will go back down to the idle that its at now but it wont go any lower ill take a vido of it tomorrow and u guys tell me if its over reving or not.... that is if i can figure out how to post vidos...

spray some ethanol (carb cleaner or quick start) around your carb and snorkel and if your idle raises then you know you have an air leak. if not that your choke cable is hung up or messed up or you prolly just have to adjust your air screw and i think it is i think 2 1/4 turn out from all the way in? you need to get a manual

X2 to the above.

Did you change your pilot jet or A/F screw?

jays-z400 · 01-24-2012, 11:50 PM

i have a manule. and no i didnt change the a/f screw i cant find one that will fit the stock carb. and the main jet is a 150 or 155 i cant remeber the guy that had it before me had it jetted when he had all the work done... i am taking the choke out tomorrow and see what i can do.. i did the test leak already and did nothing for me...

ltz400dave · 01-25-2012, 07:38 AM

With the jetted carb do you have air box lid off? I know with my 150 in and the lid on the bike ran like poop. But sound like a stuck something lol. I put my money on the carb

jays-z400 · 01-25-2012, 10:30 AM

yes the lid is on the airbox...

ltz400dave · 01-25-2012, 11:11 AM

Try running the z with the lid off mine was popping and acting like it was starving for air but try that it might work if not I'm pretty sure its a easy fix for what ever it is

jays-z400 · 01-27-2012, 02:26 PM

okay so i fixed the high idle for now. its kind of warm here so.. the choke was stuck half open...
i have another ? tho. on the left side of the motor were the revers cable is it looks like im leaking alitle bit of oil around there.. is there anything there that would be leaking oil... thanks for all the help guys...

zookie400 · 01-27-2012, 03:51 PM

take some brake cleaner, clean the area and dry it, then run the quad for a bit. you should be able to see exactly where its coming from.

jays-z400 · 01-27-2012, 05:55 PM

I did zookie its coming from the spot that the clutch cable connects to... and it is also leaking from the little black box on the right side were it goes into the jug at..and I took the cable off the choke and put the needle back in and then put the spring in and the cable and then tightened it all up and now the bike spits and sputters under full throttle.

double check the carb is clean...including "FUEL" screw passage.....and make sure there is a lil play in throttle cable as the choke, Just "DOUBLE" check your work don't be in a rush....I always say:.....I do it nice cuz it's done twice....It's not a good motto to follow trust me!!!!
