I really like how you go through these videos so let me start off by saying thank you and I also wanted to let you know that’s the reason why it ran better when you put the air filter box back on it’s because that’s where your vacuum goes from your engine block that helps with the vacuum for you’re fuel flow so you have to have that put on for the fuel pump to work properly

@ProjectTimeGarage

Yep, I've learned that the lid is a major thing on these carbs.

I was amazed when you found out that it was the carburetor boot to the main block the boot had a small crack that was not noticeable until you sprayed it and seen the fluid disappear into the boot I’m glad you were able to correct it and that you noticed that the air filter had to have its main cover on to allow a certain amount of air flow to allow the carburetor to run just right.

Carburetor cleaner will always assist in finding vacuum leaks.

Same weird problem for me after changing out the adapter. Running lean at high rpm’s . Found the cause. I installed an aftermarket adapter from Amazon (China). Removed the adapter again and in examining the flange face the “sealing area” was nearly flat leaving little to no crush when the bolts are snugged down against the. Solid flange. Put a light coat of black high temp gasket RTV on the flange. Reinstalled and problem solved.

I learned about the airbox and filter the hard way also. I kept tuning a yamaha carb without the airbox and air filter on, get it running good, put it back together and it would bog out (run too rich) finally read all these atvs need the whole air system installed to run correctly. I was used to working on Mowers and minibikes where the air filter is just that a filter not a restrictor. Also i feel your struggle with the "its never a simple job" I have had 1 or 2 pieces of equipment that were something like a fuse, other than that its always some crazy off the wall thing i got to figure out. but hey in the long run it ends up being experience and you now know what to look for.

I have a 425 magnum that I am restoring. I got it to run and idle but it would not rev up. The air box was missing the "snorkel" # 5410829 which ends in a relatively small opening to air. I noticed that if I put my hand over one of the 2 venturi openings on the air box it accelerated OK. I was told to re-jet my carb for a high air flow air box. I plan to do that but in the interim I just plugged one of the two openings to the air box and it runs just fine. I will look at the plug to see what quality of combustion I am getting. I am amazed how sensitive these machines are to the stoichiometric ratio. I would like to add just reduce the air intake while you are testing your engine and see what happens. No expense involved. wolf

Likely either the fuel pump or the needle/seat in the carb. Look at the fuel pump first. There's a "pulse" port on it that leads down to the carb. If the diaphragm in the fuel pump fails, it will allow fuel to run down that tube, which bypasses the needle/seat/float bowl and it will drain directly into the crankcase.
