1999 trailblazer 250 reverse issues

just bought a trailblazer 250 for my daughter automatic seemed like the perfect thing for a young girl just learning. when i picked up the bike the reverse was working as i used it to line up the bike for a slow run up the ramps into the bed of my pickup truck, got it home and went to unload it the following day and no reverse.
can anyone help me trouble shoot this before it becomes a costly repair job. forward seems to be working fine as i took my daughter trail riding on saturday for her birthday.
other issue is choke. have to remove seat and hold fingers over air intake hole and she starts right up. 10 seconds later can put back together and she purrs nicely. not super mechanically inclined but carpenter by trade so I’m not afraid of getting my hands dirty. any help would be greatly appreciated. thank you in advance.

2011 500 ho dies

Only when I make right turns will it die. It’s not key ring causing it. If I give it gas while turning. It doesn’t do it. But at idle it does. But not at all times though. Any suggestions? I have very low hours and miles on it. 100hrs and maybe 600 miles total.

G1 Outlander Diff Probs

Anybody ever had a problem where the bolt that holds the driveshaft into the rear diff will randomly come loose? It keeps happening to me, even after I put blue locktite on it. Every time it comes loose almost all my diff oil leaks out and makes a big mess in its just a pain in the butt.

Sub topic suggestion for Gear and Gadgets

Just my $.02.
Seems like there is a ton of discussions on "What do you carry on you ATV/UTV"
The topics cover everything from "more beer" to the "kitchen sink" and everything in between.
This sure could be a good topic for a stickie or a poll.

This would could consolidate the numerous posts into one place.
Plus, since there are varied opinions and solutions, everyone could benefit from this info in one place.

Just sayin’
