Good evening all,

I have an 05 Foremann 500. Sat up all hunting season last year. Recently pulled fuel lines and drained old fuel. Pulled carb, cleaned and rebuilt. Cranked and idled hesitantly with choke at first. This was somewhat normal for this quad as it has always been a pain to start when it was cold. Now it spits, sputters and dies whenever you accelerate. Cannot ride it due to previous statement. Pulled carb again and confirmed it was all clean. New oil, spark plug, fuel filter and fresh fuel. Has preset air fuel screw that cannot be adjusted. Recently purchased All Balls Racing rebuild kit # 26-1248. Will rebuild with that tomorrow. Any thoughts or help to get me up and running would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Beau

Describe your opinion of 'clean'.. Carbs need to be surgically clean, treat it as if your a brain surgeon!

Personally I'd ditch the all balls rebuild kit and rebuild with a shindy or OEM kit.

All balls are commonly known to be hit and miss, usually the latter!
