Depends...

ZR,

Thank you for the suggestion. I was thinking of doing that samething. Just needed confirmation from the PRO. I will probably try that this weekend. I will let you know how it goes.

First loosen the float bowl drain screw to see if gas is in the the float bowl. IF so, it will run out the drain tube all over the ground. That is the first place to start.

Report back.

Ok I am home and looked at the quad again.

I am having issues with the float. I'm not sure how the assembly goes. I need a diagram or something I'm using an awful one. When I blow into the fuel line no air gets through at all. I have traced it to the plunger thing and the float.

EDIT:
I got it. Simple installation error

So how are you guys adjusting the fuel screw with it idling?

I use a Motion Pro 90 degree tool. Some would say it is expensive, but it is some of the best dollars I have spent on motorsports.

heres my deal i just rebuilt my quad to a 416 11:1 stage 1 cam filter and full yo**** exhaust. i had the 450 cab on the stock bore and i think i need to up the pilot jet now correct? it idles rough and it kinda hiccups back through the carb. also what does the air screw look like on the 450 carb? is it the black cable coming out to the stator side of the machine? also the head pipe got a little red while i was playing with that screw on the black cable if you know what im talking about i put a 175 main in it what should i be looking at for a pilot??

I'd like to find that thread... do you have the url still?
Thanks

And does a 152 main and 42 pilot sounds good with a hmf slip on, ground down header welds, uni filter, +6 key? I don't know whether to leave air lid on or off with this eihter
Thanks

I just jetted my ex changing it from stock to a 152 main and a 42 pilot. I thought I read that the pilot jet needed to be turned out some instead of tightened all the way. It sort of stumbles when I hit the throttle in the lower than 1/4 range so im thinking I should fo tightened it all the way.
Does that sound like it would cause that? a loose pilot jet...
