95 Honda 300 fourtrax

OK yesterday my 95 Honda 300 fourtrax was running perfect, then all the sudden it just quite idling. It will fire right back up when you add throttle but will not idle. It was idling fine 5 min prior. Any idea on what happened. Plenty of gas, spark plug new, was moving from one food plot to another and it just wont idle.

Starter Valve stuck in Carburetor…

I have a 1985 Honda TRX 250 that has a Starter Valve (a.k.a choke cable, a.k.a enrichment valve) is stuck inside the carburetor.

I bought this project ATV for $300 and so far it is a blast to work on, until I go to clean the carburetor and the starter valve is really stuck in there. I have no way to disconnect the valve from the cable and I can’t clean it until I disconnect it.

She runs great, but is due for a good deep cleaning.

Any ideas? Any suggestions? Here is a pic…

I finally have a Sunday off and would like to get this baby put back together again for an evening ride! :noworktomorrow:

Easy question. Where does 420 ground hook up?

I’ve had the wife’s 420AT torn down for over a year. Finally dropped the motor back in it this morning, and don’t know what I’ve done with the ground wire.

There’s the ground coming off the frame that I think hooks to a starter mounting bolt (right?)

Where does the ground from the battery go?

Now I gotta find the dang cable…..

CDI question

I’m putting together a trx300 and I have three wiring loans which I should of marked but didn’t.
My guestion is if I put a green plug CDI loam to what used to be an engine running on a red plug will it go?

Will it damage anything?

How can I tell which engine had the red and which had the green now that I have mixed them up?

Thanks in advance.
