[QUOTE="Dumpstick, post: 3301748, member: 41653"] Friend of mine dropped off an old ATV. Said it would bog down on acceleration. I took it for a ride, it did. Then I saw the oil pumping from the trans/eng mating surface. Drained 5 qts of gas/oil mixture from the 2.5 qt crankcase. There seems to be a problem here.... Decided to pull the carb and take a look. Unscrewed the drain plug from the carb, no fuel came out. Pulled the sparker and turned it over - fuel defiantly came out then, the cylinder was full of it. Pulled the old Mikuni, the fuel bowl was full of poopie-doo ( as my wife calls it). Got it cleaned up [ATTACH=full]148455[/ATTACH] Put a kit in - same floats and jet, everything else is replaced [ATTACH=full]148456[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]148457[/ATTACH] Changed oil, changed the (leaking) fuel shutoff, changed diff oil, repaired a few other problems. I'll get it back together and give it back to him. He got a screaming deal on this thing, I'd like to buy it for what he's got in it.... [/QUOTE]
