2001 Rubicon 500 question

I have a 2001 Rubicon 500 and is really good shape for age and low hours. I don’t use it much. The question I have it runs well but only on reserve it won’t stay running when you turn the dial to ON. If someone is familiar with this 4×4 I would appreciate any help you can offer.

Thank you very much.

Old timer that doesn’t know to much. Lol

2000 big bear shuts off shortly after starting

Hello new to the forum so if I’m missing info just let me know. Alright so I recently purchased a 2000 big bear 400cc 2×4, and it ran perfectly for the first day but being a new owner and all I left the fuel switch on overnight and didn’t realize until the next morning when it wouldn’t start, so I took off the spark plug pushed out the fuel by pushing the start button and then noticed a fuel and oil mixture in the air box so I cleaned it out along with changing the oil which had gas in it as well. The next day I got it started but it would almost shut off but I would keep it alive by pumping the throttle and I figured it was the carb so I partially took it apart and cleaned it with carb cleaner (it didn’t seem dirty at all and the diaphragms appeared to be in good shape) and now it won’t stay on for more than five seconds without cutting off unless I press the throttle slightly than it will run for as long as I press the throttle, and so that’s where I’m at. Thanks for reading and any helpful advice would be greatly appreciated.

TRX 300 FW Steering Shaft Bushing Replacement?

Was riding our 300 FW and suddenly the steering shaft got really loose. Discovered the bushing near the top inside the clamp is missing. I ordered a replacement bushing and wondering how to replace?
I’m hoping I don’t have to tear down the whole front end. Would be nice if the bushing had an opening to allow sliding it around the shaft. Does it? Any help appreciated!

TIA
