From: Bill We do not actually make parts here at Off-Road.com but im sure we may be able to help you find them if they are indeed available. I really need to know the year but ill guess its around 2005? These John Deere products are derived from The old Bombardier Quest line and use Rotax engines. This means that possibly the clutch set-up would be close to most CVT trannys offered in the Quest atv’s. Give the guys at EPI Springs a call and they should be able to help you. Be sure to have the year of that beast handy to get the correct parts.
From: wolverine350 Well the first step to recovery is admitting that you have a problem my friend. J The loss of torque and or power under a load is due to either the clutch or the engine. I need to know if the engine RPM’s rev out of the box when under a load though. If this is the case then the clutch needs attention. If the engine remains at a steady rpm when under a load and it just seems to be missing the drive of old then the engine may need refreshing. Does the atv smoke? Could you kill a colony of Louisiana mosquitos with it? If so you may need engine work like rings.
From: redda Check out this article first. This gives the maker and a few insights on the atv you have: http://www.off-road.com/trucks4x4/article/articleDetail.jsp?id=227309 Then you can go here for parts and manuals: http://www.dinlisales.com/parts/
From: sspdad I would start with the carb on this one. Seems you may have some trash holding the float down and this would allow the fuel to run free. This then would be a time to empty the tank completely and make sure there is no trash there as well. Letting an atv sit up with old gas for to long will cause varnish to build on the needle and seat which can lead to this very problem.
From: Azuplander How about air delivery? Think of it this way, if the fuel cannot get enough air in the cylinder the engine will not run at its potential. Have you checked the plug lately? I could be a rich condition that’s causing the trouble instead of lean..
From: BIGDOG I would take a deep breath and start looking at each of the following items one at a time. Make sure the air filter is clean first. A clean filter means the proper air is getting into the engine. Then thoroughly clean the carb. This doesn’t mean to spray cleaner on the outside or even in the throat of the carb but take it off and open that baby up for a good inspection. Then finally you will want to be sure the gas you use is fresh and clean. Check the gas can to as most have muck in them and this gets into the tank and so on. Then I would inspect my spark plug for any signs of fouling. Its easy to just replace these items as well.
From: monoroskie Wow, there are many things here that have potential to be the root of evil on the 400ex. Are you sure the timing is spot on correct? Next order of business is to really get into the carb and clean it well. Most people look at a carb bowl inside and think its ok but I would completely disassemble that thing and put it into a chemical dip (be sure to read warnings on the can before using) to be sure there is no varnish residue inside the super small holes. Try that.
From: Tony Gonzalez The linkage on the Arctic Cat Prowler can be adjusted. I find that after hard shifting or quick jerky grabs at the shift lever will leave the tranny screaming. I think most Manufacturers require a totally stopped machine before you shift as well. Get your self a service manual and check out the routine maintenance area for the steps to adjustment.
Article Title: 2008 Renegade 500 H.O. EFI Features and Specs Sounds like you may have a potential problem with the CVT belt on your Renegade. I would need more info to be sure of just where the chattering is coming from.Get back to us with more info.
From: Scott Drabek Its not rocket science but you may need some serious engineering mindset to accomplish this task. Most of the CV joints have a spring style ring on the end of the shaft that when pressured the shaft will snap out of the cage and be ready for service. Its really hard to describe the technique with out knowing the year. I hate to tell you one way and really you need the option two method. Get me a year for your ride man or better yet buy the service manual for this beast and it should describe the proper way for the boot replacement.
Article Title: 2003 Polaris Sportsman 600 Twin Many times over years of neglect the water or coolant will form rust or corrode the shaft of the pump itself. Its possible that this is the case and the shaft that drives the water pump may be your problem. The radiator needs to be flushed just like your auto once a year.
From: jtg How about the air filter? Be sure it is in good condition and that its clean. Then if the carb has been cleaned and I mean thoroughly cleaned with a chemical dip then think about engine wear. Are the rings in need of replacing? Is it time to freshen up the motor? You could be loosing power through the valves and or timing as well.Get to work and let us know how it turns out.
From: Cooper I would think you have your answer right there. Crank seals are always causing trouble these days. Complete a leakdown test to be for sure. Check out this little tool we have found just for this:
From: david Yes the carb needs a bit of attention. Try a full service on the Magnum while you have it apart and I think you’ll be happier with the Polaris.
From: steve Hey my friend, look at it this way, the boy loves it when dad gets the world turning each time. Try changing the plug first and then get me some good info on what your pushing around the yard..
From: dummy Well the main in the 08 YFZ stocker is 155 so I would bounce to a 165 and ride the beast. Then check the plug to get a general idea if the monster is running rich. It is best to read the spark plug just after each ride for correct diagnosis of the fuel delivery if you do not have a dyno or air fuel measurement device present.
From: Kenny Hough The problem with the off brand atv’s is there are not many people who can service these machines because there are no parts available. I would think you should be sure the compression is adequate and that the air filter is clean. Check to be sure the primary jet in the carb is free of any trash as well. That’s the starting and idle source for fuel.
From: doug I have never ever heard of this. I think you may be describing the engine-braking feature? If this is the deal then there is no way to bypass this as its due to engine compression etc.
From: motoworx Try digging into the timing on this machine. Sounds like its time for an overhaul man.
Article Title: 2003 Polaris Sportsman 600 Twin The polaris brand has come a long way in the last few years. It’s really up to you and if you feel the atv is mechanically sound then go for it man. I couldn’t tell you if I think it’s a good deal because I haven’t spent time on this machine you want to buy. Its only worth what someone’s willing to pay for it. Good luck.
Article Title: T-Rex 90cc ATV Its amazing how little people use the power that they have at their fingertips. Heres a link for you to try: http://www.dinliusa.com/
From:lovemy300 I have turned my DS650 wheel around just like you have described and it does make sense to try new things like this but fact is people constantly want to be separated from their money just to feel like they have made the right choice. Its mind blowing I know but think of it this way, if there were not people with more money than time then aftermarket companies would be out of customers. Just a thought. -RS Follow us on Twitter at www.twitter.com/OffRoadDotCom
