We Finish the Yamaha Big Bear.

I had to replace my CDI box aswell and couldn’t find any new Big bear CDI box’s but I did find a New Kodiak 400 CDI box and it worked a treat. Only cost me $40 for it

[@RaymoreRepair]

Some years work and the later one's I don't think will. Thank you for watching.

[@six5grendel4]

What year Big Bear do you have and which Kodiak 400 CDI worked for you? Thank you.

[@fueledoutdoors6109]

@@six5grendel4 it’s an 05 big bear and I’ll get u the part number when I can find it again if you would like?

@@fueledoutdoors6109yes sir it would be helpful thank you!

[@matthewgaul8197]

​@@fueledoutdoors6109 I take it you didn't find a part number? I have a 06 big bear 400 that I'm pretty sure needs a cdi box

Thanks for the tips . You have a great approach to explaining repairs.

[@RaymoreRepair]

Glad to help

@RaymoreRepair can you tell me why my 2001 Big Bear 400 , 4×4 is hard to pull start ? I can barely pull it over with two hands and yet my Sportsman h.o 500 is really easy to pull start.

You do excellent diagnostic ❤

[@RaymoreRepair]

Thank you! Thank you for watching.

[@gr7485]

Nice. I think the owner should be quite happy with that.

[@RaymoreRepair]

He is happy and they have been riding it quite a lot. Thank you for watching.

[@larrywilson6555]

I have two Big Bear 400’s thanks for the video. They are hard to turn lol

[@RaymoreRepair]

Thank you for watching.

[@drumsplayerdirtracer7541]

Your videos are great! thank you! i have a kodiak 400 with similar issues. cranks all day, no spark. Worked fine after some basic maintenance, after a test ride it was idling and just quit. The rotation direction coil tested out of spec with 0 ohm/continuity. Could this rotation direction coil stop the bike from sparking? Its the only think ive found out of spec so far.

[@RaymoreRepair]

Sounds like it could be your issue. Thank you for watching.

Great video. I'm enjoying watching you work on these machines. Currently I am working on a project to do a full restoration on my 1985 Yamaha 200 Moto 4. Posting my videos as I go. Progress is much slower for me as I am not an ATV mechanic by trade. Currently working to find out what I believe may be an electrical short that is grounding the machine out and preventing the machine from starting, either with battery power or via the pull starter. Got spark, fuel, air, and compression. Motor turns over just fine but won't fire up. Since the spark plug does fire, I'm thinking the kill switch or the ignition off switch may be grounding out. Any suggestions welcome.

Thanks for that compliment. Thank you for watching.

[@billarmstrong7155]

Thanks for the video very helpful ! Which two wires from the cutout relay did you jump to make the starter work? I am currently having some of the same grounding problems on my 2000 big bear.

[@RaymoreRepair]

I do not remember which two to jumped. but I got a service manual for $10.00 off Ebay and followed it.

[@royhill8349]

Ive got an 05 Big bear. It sat for 3 years. I cleaned/ rebuilt the carb. It ran good, then started a little backfiring. Cant get it to quit! Any ideas? Ty Sir

[@RaymoreRepair]

Sorry to hear that, Check the spark plug first and then work your way back to the source coil on the stator. Thanks for watching.

[@WhitetailEliteOutdoors]

CAN YOU MAKE A VIDEO ON HOW TO FIX A VACUUM LEAK ON A BIG BEAR?

[@RaymoreRepair]

Yes I can as soon as I have another one in. Thank you for watching.

[@gilbertclement5427]

I noticed that you have an aversion to use penetrants. Just an observation.

[@RaymoreRepair]

I just don't think they do much good on old rusty crusty stuff. I like them for preserving stuff that works though. Thank you for watching.

[@jamesconley297]

I’d use antiseze next time

[@RaymoreRepair]

Good advice. Thank you for watching.

[@danmccarthy2754]

I just got a Big Bear 350, it starts fine but smokes for a bit, then it runs okay ? I am thinking it needs a look at lifters and rings?

[@RaymoreRepair]

Pretty much the same yes. Thank you for watching.
