Great video, I'm in the middle of it laughing. I just bought a 2010 Sportsman 500. The guy said it sometimes stahls out after you're running at higher RPMs but he had just replaced the carb. I get it home, putting around the yard and its great, hit the gas and it dies after riding for a min or two. Thought maybe bad gas, filled it up, woke up the next morning with the house filled with gas fumes. Almost a fuel tank of gas emptying onto my garage floor, I would have turned off the gas valve but couldn't find the damn thing. So I figure the float is stuck, get the carb off (chinese knockoff carb), pull the bowl and the float is way up in the air. This thing will not adjust to allow the float to stay open long enough. It sits great with the float hinge pin out, then if I put it in, the needle moves to close to the float. As far as I can tell the damn thing has been cast wrong. The float isn't even stock looking. I ordered a used carb from Ebay and a rebuild kit from Balls

that was one crazy ATV buy, I'm still not sure what all happened

Did you ever get it dialed in

I have seen some in various motors without the rubber tip on the fuel float valve I have changed some thinking the rubber was the answer. No it wasnt.

Is the float suppose to sit like that?

How do u adjust Idol on those bikes

Why doesn't the rebuild kit have the top diaframe included with it.

On the float there's a little rubber o-ring that goes in the carburetor not the needle did you snap that in mind won't fit all the way in and I'm having an issue in about half throttle it starts breaking up if you could respond and maybe help me out man I'd appreciate it thank you

BOO UNO CHE LAVORA CON I GUANTI SUL CARBURATORE NON L' O MAI VISTO

Liked your video. Can you tell me which port you were blowing into to check the float operation? Thanks!

that is the line the gas is hooked to . if the carb is right side up you should be able to blow threw it if it is upside down the float should close the gas port and no air should go threw

I know it’s been a while but do you know what kit you got?

LMAO I love when people buy those "cheap chinese, so called carburetors" and either use them or start swapping parts from them onto the OEM carb, and then wonder why the bike won't run right. Or think the bike is running right, when in reality it isn't. I've been working on bikes for years, and have NEVER replaced a carb, I ALWAYS rebuild them!!

Terrible.
