I was just thinking about something that happened to me one day at practice and was wondering if it happened to any of you guys ever.
I was riding a track taking some jumps and my quad kinda started cutting out. It was very very faint and only someone who had been riding it for a while would notice it, then it seemed the more I jumped and rode it started cutting out really bad, and started becoming hard to keep running. I pulled up to the truck and though for sure something happend with my filter. (I dont know why?) So I put a clean one on...no change, started up and as soon as I hit the gas or it ran for more than 5 seconds it shut off. I put the lid on...even worse.
I get down on the ground looking towards the front and here is my rev box dangling down against the frame hanging by the wires its connected to. It was still connected, but obviously not fully. I pushed it together as hard as possible, and it started up and ran perfect. After taking the hood off I realized that it basically just sits down in its little rubber casing and isn't really held in anyway. Maybe its supposed to be though? I dont know. Anyways I zip tied mine down in there and had my buddies do the same.
Anyone else ever have this happen?
