[@Tailgatesntoolboxes]

If you sell it lmk . would u ship it to NY? ....i think you would be able to strap it to a pallet

[@theoneandonly2421]

Dude has come so far, two years ago he couldn’t even ride a 2 stroke , forget working on one. He’s gotten to know a lot of different machines too.

[@gregeverett2290]

you use 80-90 gear oil in the transmission not oil i’m a small engine mechanic

[@roblewis7186]

These older, cheaper quad videos are my personal favorite. It is basically what my son and I do in our garage at home. Good work dude.

[@powerfool9305]

Make a video on how to find good finds on used quads and dirt bikes.

[@alviskirsanovs5575]

yeah😂

[@ezechielroy859]

yes please

[@deryckhorton3627]

You just have to keep looking marketplace everyday. Scrolling for hrs. You’ll come across them.

[@sillygoosesmallengines1994]

Dont live where u live

[@orenziehl7831]

I just want to say your so underrated. You literally put so much effort into your videos and you can fix any engine which amazes me. Keep it up.

[@aaronhoward7593]

yeah remember that rusted ou Kawasaki mule with the cracked piston

[@kellytaylor8665]

I love the way you explain in slight detail of some of the things that you’re doing is very instructional without being boring thank you so much I’m a retired 64 year old grandpa and I like working on these things a little bit I’m planning on setting me up at my shop to handle these ATVs I’m living down here in Texas a lot better weather than Wisconsin most of the year though it does get hot

[@billysantiesteban4199]

It’s one long cable for the parking brake and foot brake from oem it’s common to delete the front portion and install the short cable from pedal to caliper. Which i believe is what you did.

[@Hanky_Bannist8r]

My Blaster had the same issue, turns out the oil pump wasn't consistent enough to feed oil and smoked my top end. I wouldn't trust it, cap it off and mix it.

[@robspear03]

Learned that with a 1980 Honda Express scooter. Same deal.

[@Jboost412]

Yes sir! We just picked one up…needed a top end….so I asked the previous owner if he used it 😂 needless to say it’s now capped off

[@GameMen10000]

Did you bleed it and did your throttle cable have the correct slack, or lack there of? I don't mean at the accelerator, I mean at the pump it self. They're actually quite good, as long as you use good oil and make sure it never runs out, and if it does, bleed it, it keeps the mix at the correct ratio for any given rpm.

[@ipawdmaster]

@@GameMen10000 blocked my oil pump off I run caster 927 32:1 just recently took my top end off just for the hell of it and after 2 extremely hard years hundreds of hours that top end was absolutely perfect never had that kind of luck with oil injection on my blaster

[@ezechielroy859]

never trust the injectors

[@n2vxc]

GOOD JOB, IVE WATCHED YOU FOR A LONG TIME, you are actually getting better!!

[@dhan7072]

[@That_DS_Rider]

Got a couple project blasters myself. Enjoyed the heck out of this video

[@chillycheeze2207]

That wd40 cleaning lapse was super satisfying watching it get shined up, you should throw more in! Otherwise its a neat little quad👌👌

[@cherylt8590]

Yup it sounds like a Blaster,and like popcorn popping lol👍😅...

[@petersykes8891]

You need to watch it back I could see sparks arc to the frame.keep the content coming 🇮🇲🇮🇲🇮🇲🇮🇲🇮🇲🇮🇲👍

[@williamquick6153]

I just did a blaster project myself. You should deffinetly do the TORS system delete and the oil pump delete and mix the gas 32:1. They run so much better that way. I also successfully deleted my ignition completely because the previous owner lost it over the 7 years it sat next to his barn and didn't run. Fully rebuilt my engine too

[@Bri-tg6xr]

That brake is exactly like the fl250 odyssey inside. I was amazed. Pretty cool quad. Great you were able to save it essentially.

[@smokeyou812]

I would totally buy that thing when it's down. Looks awesome with the black and red. Would put the red shocks on front also.

[@joeschlong7633]

Just got back from football practice This is a good thing to come back to

[@nickgruber2593]

Great video I’m more partial to quads and trikes but I love them all!👍

[@ColeVanWeezy1991]

The mystery cable is a parking break you can toss it you have the shorty break cable so you can just pull it off 👍 also when you took apart the caliper that white tab is adjustable so you can set the pressure on the pad if you pull the whole thing out you can screw the little stub all the way back the white dial ratchets down to set the depth just a little fyi I had to play with it a bit on mine 👍

[@BushWookie603]

I WISH my caliper looked like that when I opened it 😂😂😂 mine was rusted solid. Took 3 hours of soaking and tapping to free it up

[@joshpotts6667]

Did you put a hose clamp on the intake boot ?

[@messypiper7284]

at 26.54 when your checking if the oil pump is working u can see you spark jumping from the head to the exhaust :)

[@dabtech7456]

Good eye

[@jaydentycholiz1309]

17:41 when he sprayed wd-40 that little drip on the left tryna make its way into the brake pads 😅😅

[@marcelloroos766]

The wires on the oil tank are only for a low oil level indicator light and the parking brake cable goes to the footlever

[@Creative-content24-7]

Check out your intake manifold that’s in between the carb and engine, could have a crack in it

[@eshott396]

More LT250 builds!! Maybe engine rebuild?!love lots!!

[@wyatthartman1285]

I just helped a friend get one of these running again today

[@SonOfLiberty1984]

Fired RIGHT up! Nice work!

[@theodorebuilds]

Ditch the entire oiling system and run mixed

[@robspear03]

+1

[@bkm72]

I don't understand why they had the oil pump system to begin with.

[@jonthelamb4549]

When I had my blaster it worked fine for the 7 or so years we had it

[@Ateyoshmoes]

Yeah tht's the parking brake, you hold the button down while that little black lever goes in the gap to hold the brake on

[@razsmith3555]

Your the man Joe!! Been watching for ages

[@timwilkinson2797]

Nice one Joe ( UK here )

[@timmyrucci5117]

Youre an inspiration for my wrenching! but i have a question and need help! i have a 97 RT180, its my favortie bike, it runs well and goes through all gears, although feels as though the kickstart doesnt have much pressure when i kick it. do you believe it has low compression? also, the factory paint is on many of the bolts on the bike such as fork hardware and engine mounting hardware, indicating it hasn't been rebuilt. if so should the entire case be split? or begin with taking the jug/head off and start by checking rings? what would you begin with? thanks!

[@bigcaputo09]

Did you spray the base gasket of the cylinder? Maybe no air filter is giving it too much air also but i doubt that. I remember riding that same style purple blaster with my best friend growing up. It was new back then though. It's a ripper!!

[@Wonkawiz]

For future reference: you can place the gasket on the engine side’s dowels before placing the cover on, ensuring a good fit

[@Copesthetic-Aesthetic]

I always feel like giant sitting on a kids toy when I've road these. Then I crack the throttle, and think this is to fast for kids.

[@daytrading5456]

As much work as you do on these bikes, it's crazy how you work on the ground (i.e., getting cover ready with gasket and working on carb).

[@robspear03]

Its garage wrenching done right.

[@Bjorn-cr7um]

You have spark from head to exhaust!! When you checked THE oil pump

[@Matthewmiller28]

do a leak down test. If theres a leak youll have to spray soapy water on the intake, cylinder ect. If theres air bubbles you found the problem spot. Most leaks happen around the intake boot by the reeds

[@lostammo9026]

I got mine for 1600 and in great shape mine is a 1991 just road it today in Rocky point Sonora Mexico did great

[@bradysmith5969]

Check your carb slide my 2 stroke atv did that and found the carb slide wasn't screwed on all the way

[@marcelinomartin5018]

what kind of transmission oil did you use ?

[@cohenbell6595]

You should do some more RM builds those were great vids!!

[@paulamaral8029]

Joe those rims are originally yellow not red u got a 1995 run that vin# if u can still see it..purple plastics came on 1995 with yellow rims

[@jaredbrown7573]

I think I saw your cylinder head shocking the frame. Saw sparks when you put the camera close to the tranny to check if 2 stroke was pumping through

[@kartguy]

If you didn't sell any of the quads you have had how many do you think you would have total? lol I've seen you work on at least 50 so... Love your channel man!

[@erikbowman264]

My blaster had the same problem with the reving up my problem was the base gasket on the motor broke and pushed out and caused it to rev up.

[@thatcoalminer275]

You got lucky with your ebay key, last time I ordered one from there it was wired back where off was on and on was off, so everything I went to start my battery would be dead.

[@localenterprisebroadcastin5971]

I have the same exact year 👍

[@2vintage]

Nice! How do you like it?

[@localenterprisebroadcastin5971]

@@2vintage love it…mine has some upgrades though…240 big bore 32 mm carb Fmf pipe/silencer and V force reeds…it’s about as fast as my 02 YZ 250 so it’s not slow 🤷🏼‍♂️….but yeah it’s a blast (pun intended)

[@jamestownsendjrtbees3226]

That parking brake cable you can just remove now that you put on the shorty cable. The original cable hooks on at the foot pedal then goes all the way to the brakes. I just did this on mine a few days ago.

[@Coltonm8994]

Nice video! I noticed you use wd-40 cleaning stuff. Are there any advantages? Because I also thought that wd-40 attracted dirt

[@Bri-tg6xr]

I do that too, just ease of use to clean with. Typically you'll need to protect metal rustable parts with an oil or wax to prevent rust in the long run.

[@m8fusion712]

Great video man keep up the good work

[@Blue04Z71]

Delete the tors system. New cable and cap for the carb. I did that to my blaster and I switched over to hydro front brakes. Much better. Kinda miss the old fmf fatty sound of mine. But it was just to small for me 6-2 200lbs lol

[@BitcoinYooper]

For sure Blaster was my first quad in high school. First thing I did delete the T.O.R.S. system complete garbage. My blaster had full DMC Alien exhaust was pretty sweet.

[@thesharmaboyz3919]

26:00 where does that oil line connect to? I'm trying to rebuild my blaster and it would help a lot thanks.

[@wallpaperman9051]

The oil pump. Some people like to take them off and mix their own gas.

[@thesharmaboyz3919]

@@wallpaperman9051 so the other end doesn't connect to the carburetor?

[@wallpaperman9051]

Try either connecting the other side to the carb or oil tank, if not, I got no idea. Probably oil tank since the oil pump lubes the engine with 2 stroke oil instead of mixing your own gas and the oil tank supplies that oil.

[@wallpaperman9051]

Yamahas website also has diagrams for every specific part. Just go to parts, type in what bike you have, and it’ll show you everything.
