b.rich108 Posted January 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2014 I opened it up today. The impeller drive gear was broken. The new clutch came in today but I probably wont be able to put it in till sometime next week. I went to check the compression and I got 120psi in the one cylinder. I did not get a chance to check the other side because the threads in the dome were completely striped out. The domes are 21cc. Is that compression in the one cylinder ok for that size domes on a cylinder that's bored .40 over? I started a new thread with more questions. Any help will be much appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry's Shee Posted January 5, 2014 Report Share Posted January 5, 2014 You increase jetting for cold weather? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b.rich108 Posted January 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2014 I never got a chance to. I'm not sure what the jetting is right now. But i saw the reason it cut off and would not start again was because one of the coil wires broke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldskool Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 Brother,you got a lot going on. Yes 120lbs compression is good. Stock new is 125lbs. Prolly should try to fix one thing at a time. Are you saying the threads for the spark plug are stripped out in the dome? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b.rich108 Posted January 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 Yea the threads for the spark plug were stripped out of the dome. SO I should be getting my parts in this week. I should have everything back together this weekend. Once it is back together I am going to run it and see what it is doing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trickedcarbine Posted January 7, 2014 Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 Lots of issues, Pull the carbs to give them a clean and rebuild Report back on what jets are in the carbs and we can get you started on whether or not it's close. Motor shutting down is more then likely a seizeure. Especially if the water pump went. You probably don't wanna hear it, but that motor needs a total rebuild at this point. But you don't have to go nuts. You should take it down to the cases and start out fresh regardless. No point in putting a new clutch and top end on a motor that's got a toasted low end Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

b.rich108 Posted January 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 Update Carbs were both dirty and are now good and clean and it is running very good. Jet sizes were 260 main. There were 3 other jets that I was not sure what they were. One said 1.4 another said 1.6 and I believe it was the pilot that said 25. Not positive on that though. The carbs were both 28mm inside diameter. The jet sizes did not make much sense to me, but I am not very familiar with carbs at all. Do these numbers sound correct? As far as the clutch goes, The new clutch made a world of difference over the old. However, the ball bearing got fused to the clutch adjustment screw so I have to pick them up. My buddy picked up a compression tester, but it seemed like none of the adapters wanted to screw in. Also, they weren't nearly as long as the spark plugs. Are there testers just for quads?

trickedcarbine Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 The 25 is the pilot, the 260 main is pretty standard. I wouldn't mess with either of the other two you found. Maybe bump the pilot to 27.5 and main up to a 280. Maybe give the needle a clip richer. The compression testers are kinda a pain to find a nice one. Not sure there would be any ATV specific one as they can test anything the end allows you to thread it into. Just hold a plug next to whatever adaptor you find to make sure it's close in size.

b.rich108 Posted January 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 what do you mean by the needle a clip richer? How do I do that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bansheefromhell Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 Move the clip on the needle down one notch Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
