I have a 1986 Honda 350 Fourtrax that i’ve purchased in the past few months, at first the bike ran good and you could go all day on it but it started bogging out from time to time so i replaced the fuel pump as the one on it was getting bad, my choke now stays on at first it started and you could use it with the choke on but now it won’t start at all. I’m not sure on what’s wrong with the bike so any help would be really useful.

the choke comes out of the carb when you use the choke it doesn’t stay in place anymore

If the valve nut is stripped or broken you’ll need a new valve kit—about $40–worth every penny.

Only buy OEM parts if you can help it.

download the service manual and check parts links in my signature block below

I assumed you had the OEM carb—here’s a pic of mine.
Look just below the starter valve (choke valve)—you’ll see the carb is a Keihin QA03A
