Carb questions

[Dontilgon]

I just picked up a warrior but it was left outside over this winter uncovered. All was good prior to the winter.
I'm looking to rebuilt my carb. I have two carbs the original a used one. Both identical. When I took them both apart,one had a brown bowl on the main jet and the other didn't. Is this an important piece? I cleaned the used carb with hopes I didn't have to rebuilt .She cranked right up and idled perfectly but when I gave it throttle she just kept bogging. The airbox was off and in could see fuel lightly spraying out. Any help would be great.i do have a repair kit and will attempt to do it myself after reading a couple of DIY post.

A little brown bowl? Do you mean the floats?

 

[Dontilgon]

It just sits in place.

Thats just to help sloshing fuel. You dont need it.

Any word on why it's bogging out yet? Mine started doing the same thing. Idles like a champ, but as soon as you throttle it, it dies.

The jets are probably clogged.


Take it all apart get 2 cans of carb cleaner and clean it all up, make sure you spray the cleaner through ALL THE HOLES real good. (that’s why I say 2 cans of cleaner)

Thanks Sea157 I'll try that when I get off work, hope it works this thing has become a pain in my backside

 

[Dontilgon]

Thanks, will give the rebuild a shot today. Did you have your airbox off when it was backfiring/bogging?

 

[Dontilgon]

Rebuilt the carb and still the same. Idles perfectly but when I throttle it dies. Where do I go from here?

Check your fuel flow through your petcock and make sure the floats aren't stuck and gas cap vent.

I just finishing rebuilding the carb. Fuel running fine to the carb and the gas cap is off.

So I disconnected the parking brake switch and I actually get throttle response now. Calling quits for tonight but I will get everything together tomorrow and report back.

Always those damn safety switches
if all else fails ditch the safety switches! Lol

As soon as I get out of work today , I'll be working on this project. I also have a new intake to install.I hope this is the problem.What type of oil should be used on the upper slide.

 

[Dontilgon]

It was the parking safety switch. Adjusted the cable and I was back on the dirt. Hope this helps others. Thanks
