I managed to weld the ball and push rod together, so I pulled the motor and split the cases. (first time doing this so may have done something wrong.) I basically only removed what I had to, and slightly lifted tranny to put new push rod in. then did the pancake bearing update. I did lift the crank from the bottom some because i had to put the new crank seal on. then i put it back together with yamabond. The stator i didnt know if it had to be lined up or somethin like a 4stroke timing, so i just put the flywheel on the key and bolted flywheel on, toqued down etc. carbs sat for probably 8 months on there sides on the ground, in a non dusty spot. put them in and didnt know what needle went with what carb so tried both. both times the quad runs full throttle as soon as youstart. i dont think i have a t.o.r.s, previous owner must have removed that, and the needle/throttle cable appear to be working right, i checked both of them, they slide right. i do have alot of open connections under fuel tank, not sure what thats about. any ideas?? cant figure this out, and when i say full throttle, i mean its damn near gonna blow and the twist lever is resting all the way forward... thanks
