Thank you, thank you so much! I didn’t know there was a ground out switch inside the throttle, which was my problem after working on the carb. I was pulling my hair out trying to troubleshoot.

If you put a NEW carb on regardless of what make or model it is try turning the fuel switch to reserve then cranking it. Just tried it and it worked. Hope it helps somebody

So after watching alot of your vids.I decided to tear into it.Removed plastics,tank,ordered a new pump .Was able to get the new carb to bark off with starter fluid.Did run then bogged.Someone told me to dump can of sea foam in tank.Maybe part of issue?.Answered my own question about adjustment idle screw.Once put new carb on.runs good.Part of issue was boot for carb was old unplyable to seal properly used heat gun to soften then pushed on nicely.then installed carb with boot on .Thank you for all your work making vids.Most info there just have to watch.

Did you try and bypass it Like I do? use a small tank and hold it above ( gravity feed ) with a hose. I tune the carb first that way. Then deal with the fuel issues. That way your not hunting in the wrong direction.

Another great video. If you ever have a chance, you could show how the ETC won’t allow the bike to idle when the throttle cable is too loose. And its purpose.

I bought a 97 polaris Scrambler 500 h/o with a new carb and new petcock. It runs fine on flat ground but on any incline it sputters like its running out of fuel. I did notice a clear cap on one of the metal hoses coming off the new carb! Is that supposed to be off? The guy i bought it off of has a business fixing atvs so i assume he knows his stuff but everyone makes mistakes, maybehe missed it? . Should i take that cap off? Its a tiny clear cap on a brass colored metal hose coming off the carb, i believe it was on the right side if your sitting on the atv.

I'm trying to hook the lines back up on a Polaris 700 Twin (2002) It has the two nipples on the front that I believe go to the airbox. The bottom fule inlet (next to idle adjuster), but then it has another L shaped nipple on the back that resembles the fule inlet.... what attaches there?

I have a 99 polaris scrambler. Put a new choke cable on and now won't start without covering intake for a second or spraying with starting fluid. Does the cable screw all the way in at the carb it's self ? And I do have the mid cable adjust ment as well. Just can't figure this out
@TitaniummanGarage10 ай бұрын
The cable screws all the way in the carb. If you have the mid cable adjustment try screwing it in or out to get it to run right. If your covering the intake then it could be leaking air in somewhere like the carb intake boot.

I have a 2006 sportsman 500 ho. I have to turn the idle screw up very high when cold starting, and then once started I immediately have to turn it back down bc the RPMs are two high (2,500 rpm). When I turn it down I get it to 1500 rpm, and then let it warm up. As it warms up the rpm’s slowly creep higher and higher, so I have to turn it down some more. I hate having to do this procedure on every cold start, how can I FIX?
@TitaniummanGarage Жыл бұрын
It could be an issue with the throttle cable sticking. I've had to replace a couple for that reason. Also the choke cable. Or you could have air coming in somewhere. Carb boot, vacuum lines, air box. I would try the throttle cable first. Cheap and easy fix. Then go from there.
