I will never understand mice, I wired locomotives for a living so lots of wires and schematics are pretty everyday for me. The other day my neighbor came to me and ask if I could look at his washing machine as it had just quit. I said yep grabbed a screwiedriverz and walked to his house where I removed the back from the machine (after checking with a voltmeter that the outlet had power) and was greeted by ........... empty. Little bit**** didnt chew a wire or three they ate connectors, wiring and killed one of their pack when they touched both terminals of the starting capacitor for the agitate motor, dude they ate everything, how and Whiskey Tango Foxtrot. Took me a couple of hours and a spool of wire to rewire it. This was an awesome repair you did here, thanks for sharing and the video!!!

Love those bikes. Got mine in boxes when I was 15, some assembly required. Dad said here, it's yours if you can figure it out. They are wonderfully tough and simple, with just enough modern amenities. The 220s have a spool in the rear. The 300 had a locking rear diff. It's hard to tell from the video, but that one sounds a little low on compression. Check the valves, if they eat a little dirt the intake will recede into the head and get tight. They should have enough compression to be next to impossible to pull start without tripping the decomp, which is on the right side of the head. When you clean those carbs it's very important to pull the idle needle out of the bottom of the carb, in addition to the pilot jet. If you have idle issues that is almost surely the cause.

Good to see you have some free fun. I love trouble shooting freebies. I have a very nice 17.5 hp Craftsman 42 in lawn tractor. It just wouldn't start. The engine has a compression release that is actuated a low rpm of the cam shaft. The valve lash must be set correctly or it doesn't release the compression so the starter can barely turn the engine. Sucks all battery pretty quick and no start. Set the valves starts right up run like a new engine it's a briggs and stratton. Wasn't charging the battery. Had to solder a wire. Everything works great and other than a new battery I bought for it. It was free. I can't help but smile when I'm mowing my lawn. Have a great day Wess.

Likely story on how you got that four-wheeler. I bet you stole it out of a field somewhere. And I'm sure the battery got that way because you left it on the concrete floor! Might have been squirrels, I had a push mower have it's entire gas cap and filler neck eaten off by squirrels. Just a big, jagged hole was left in the top of the plastic tank. No trace of the gas cap or filler neck were around. Luckily I had a dead mower at least 10 years older that had the same tank. The squirrel also ate holes in the gas cap of my Z-turn rider but luckily left the filler neck alone so I just had to buy a cap.
