Hi, i've been wanting to change the oil on my quad so I go out to warm it up and it runs fine for about 2 minutes and then suddenly dies. The quad absolutely would'nt start if I had the petcock set to the ON position since there wasn't much fuel left in the tank. So I turned the petcock to RESERVE and it fired right up until it died. Then I noticed fuel uncontrollably spilling out the overflow hoses on my FCR 39 - obviously the reason it died and would'nt refire.
It's about 30 degrees here right now so I am wondering if I have this problem because the float valve is sticking? If I wait till it gets warm again would the float possibly unstick itself? This has never happened before so I am just wondering if its the cold temperatures. Thank you very much.
