maybe you need a new petcock valve, i replaced mine cuz when i took it apart there was a tear in the rubber gasket inside. or its the cable running from your choke to the carb, when the cable meets the carb it screws into the carb, make sure its screwed in tight so no air is getting into the carb.

Check your vacuum line on the petcock going to the carburetor, sounds like you have an air leak somewhere.

i dont know how u guys know all this stuff its like u can mind read my quad over the comp. every time i ask they point me exactly to the source i love this website thanks guys it was on teh right side the small tube was off of it. does that mean i need to clean out my carb or what? im guessing it was letting dust and dirt inside of it so i would clean it tonight but my friend came over and left tools out so my dad locked up the tool crib... stupid i know.
