I’m looking for some advice on my 2008 sportsman 6×6. I bought it last year from the Australian Military auctions as a basket case. It runs well when it is cold but when it warms up it runs rough and seems to be running rich. I cant give it any throttle without it backfiring.
I don’t think that there are any wear issues as the machine has 16.5 hours on it, and was basically used as a small spare parts machine by the military after they bent a steering post.
Among the parts that I have had to replace are the ECM (NOS), CDI (aftermarket), fuel pump (NOS) and all the fuel lines. I just replaced the choke plunger after running it for the first time for 8 years. Any suggestions would be great.

What’s up guys, I’m new to the forum. I have a 2004 Yamaha Grizzly 660. I got a good deal on it but it has problems. It just needed someone to love it and give it some TLC lol I will be posting some info on it in the proper sections later on
I bought a Blue sea fuse block and need some advice on a mounting location on my ’16. Not a lot of room under the "hood," so I’m looking at one of the dry storage spots, or inside a front rack cargo box, or even under the seat where the tool pouch is currently. I wouldn’t even mind mounting it on the left front fender where those stupid riveted placards used to be…if I had a weather proof box to mount it in. The center storage would be easy, but it could be a hassle when taking things apart for cleaning or maintenance if I had to disconnect it every time. Where are others putting thme on ’16s?
Ok my 87 trx250x will not run, I have gotten it started twice by having someone pull me with another quad, it idles great and sound great, anything over about quarter throttle it just cuts out, bogs down, I can not start it by kicking it, I have checked through the hole wire harness, cleaned all connections and grounds, all wires look great, it has good blueish spark when I kick it, the compression was just over 180, when I checked the plug which is brand new it is black and wet, I’ve cleaned it off multiple times and doesn’t help, also the carb has Been completely rebuilt by an atv shop, also has brand new air filter, I just want to ride this dang thing bad and it’s giving me fits, any help is much appreciated, thanks

Getting ready to put clutches, a slip on and FC on my 800 Outlander. The next phase of upgrades will be drop in cams and maybe have the TB bored or just get a larger TB. I know more air flow will compliment the cams but what kind of actual gains can I expect going to a 51mm TB? Is it worth going to a larger TB if you don’t go to a larger intake as well? Is there anything else that’s going to need attention when I change the cams and TB? My last question is which skid plates are best. Just kidding!
I have a 2012 Sportsman 500 HO. It does not have a pull start. I was wondering if I can install one on this model.. most of the kits I see only go to 2011. Is there some kind on internal changes to prevent this addition on the 2012? I like the idea of having a back-up system in case of battery failure
