This was a good one. That's why the plug was black because of the broken spring the gas wasn't shutting off with the float level so it basically was flooding itself while it was running. First thing that popped into my mind though was intake valve or coil

I did a valve adjustment now it has blue smoke after throttle

Another machine fixed! Nice job. These are great machines. I still have a 99 400EX and I'm glad I do because they're bulletproof and the price of a new machine these days is through the roof!

Loving the repair/troubleshooting videos keep up the good work mate

I was thinking on the intake boot a crack - air leaking. But after watching your video and the carb was the problem. Wow great troubleshooting.

Well done young man. Ive watched you videos for a while now and I’ve seen you make good progress in a short period of time with your diagnosing process. Want a good tip NEVER believe the customer. No matter what he/she tells you has been fixed just assume is wasn’t done. I know your gut was telling you carb from the beginning🤘🤘

Be sure to re adjusted the valves for the hot cam specs. When I did a hotcams on my 400 I had to adjust them a little higher than factory settings

Yess sir love these trx 400 quads. I bet you you fix it in les than 2 videos they are build really good just like them xr400 bikes. Got 2 of those in the build series right now.

Clean sport quads like this are becoming more and more rare now days! And prices just keep climbing. Wish I still had my 08 trx450

Excellent detective work, thanks for the tour of the 01.

My 400ex did the same thing! I got rid of it after not being able to trouble shoot it myself. Neat to know now what was most likely the issue. I wonder how many people have experienced that same issue..

Great content in this video keep up the good work definitely one of my favourite channels.

I have a 37yo Honda VF1100 haven't had a valve adjustment in years it runs great.

Love your videos man so relaxing 😌

I had an old warrior that did the same thing..I bought it from a guy that couldn’t figure it out..I finally figured out the little clip positions on the needle was worn out and the needle was jumping up and down..I rebuilt the carb and it was mint

Love the video content Joe im on a mission to get a mint condition 400 ex !

Nice find joe keep up the good content 👍👍👍

Nice job finding the issue! That’s a tough one to find!

Great work Joe...she was a feisty one

That's a good find!! That would make it run really rich!! Great job!!

I had a four wheeler with the same problem and it was a wire that shorted out for the engine braking system

Wow!! Nice fined man.. I thought it was electrical for sure... I thought it was electrical for sure.. I don't think I would have found that ..good job..

Awesome Job Joe..

Always check and thoroughly clean carb 1st most often the issue...small engine repair 101🙃😏

Awesome video man

Loving the vids clean 400

alot ofr patience to find the problem most people dont have great video

Amazing video's bro keep up the good work

Great vid man!

I noticed that when you pulled the fuel screw, no o ring came out.. on some of my bikes the O-ring gets stuck, and sometimes there's 2 O-rings inside.. which makes it run really rich.

Good catch 👍🏼

Good video that was a tricky one buddy I hope all is well

That’s a beautiful quad tho besides the problem.

She running like a champion 💪

One CLEAN 01!

Check your pilot and jets clean them

I've seen that issue on 250ea trikes, a little lube in that shaft opposite of the spring should help it. It might be a little worn out in there.

Love the 400 ex one of my favorites

all my cuz runs in his 400ex is ngk iridiums. honda's love them for some reason.

float height in carburettor and set mixture

Great job!!!!

It looks awesome

Same thing happened to mine rebuilt the carb many times and it still didn't work. Put a new carb on it and it ran beautifully.

G'day Joe mate

Try your air fuel mixture screw if running lean go a turn in and if running rich turn out

Make a video on how to find good deals on used quads.

Hey wasupp i have the same problem with a suzuki ltZ400z 2005 and i change the carburetor to a new one but still does the pop sound and it doesn’t stay on you think you could help me out with that thank you!

Check Cdi Box or coil my ltz 400 ran like crap when it was hot till i changed the CDI box

Job well done 👍

Check the exhaust header where it goes into the muffler

And your acceleration pump on carburator sorry for the extra typeing

Would you fix my 2005 ltz 400? Blown head gasket head might be bad?

My Kawasaki kfx 400 was kinda acting like that and where the exhaust headpipe connected to the muffler that gasket or seal was gone changed it and bam just like new

I have a brand new carb for an 02 400ex if you wanted to put it on that quad

Carb should've been the first thing you checked not the last

Should find a 500 scrambler

Let's gooo 2v time!

The air cut off valve could be suspect.

Should check for a hole in the diaphragm also

Exhaust plugged, since it was running rich

It seemed like the spark wasn’t sparking everything which was weird

It's carburetor all day long I know I'm responding days later but I would have switched out the carburetor for one of your known good ones and your problem would have been solved within 5 minutes first time you took the plug out you could if it's black looking on it

Can anybody help me with my 400 ex 1999 I cleaned my cabrater and I went to ride it it rained that day and all of a sudden it started back firing is there water in the fuel and getting in the cabrater or what?

I have this same bike

Nice 👍

edelbrock used to make a great replacement carb for these. i used one on my mx 426ex back in the day.

Could u take half a second and explain how to test my coil on my 01 cr125R ....please?

Sounds like it could use a new muffler as well

It sounds to me that the chock is kinda sticking closed

Sounds coil or stator

@Whoop!!

Sounds like it's starving for fuel... Check your gas cap vent as well

thats what mine did turned out it was the stator

needle is BENT!!!! NOT A worn out spring

I had the same exhaust but it was the full exhaust header and silencer from white brothers and rode like shit….once I put the factory oem full exhaust header and silencer rode like brand new …rode with full power it was a nite and day..

@wesleyoos71

3 жыл бұрын

Ultrasonic cleaner is good if dirt and grim were the problem. If you watched the hole video you would know that the fuel shut off spring that works by the level of gas and the needle was getting stuck. If that doesn't open or gets stck open you will either get flooded out or you won't get gas. Ultrasonic cleaner would not have made any difference here
