How do I fix my ATV running rich?

Running rich is usually not an issue. Move the needle to the top and put it back. Alternatively, you can warm up your ATV and drive with the choke on. However, if there is too much fuel (and consequently too little air) being supplied, then it is likely that the excess fuel will leak outside of the chamber.

Where do you spray carb cleaner on an ATV?

Why is my Honda TRX 350 es not shifting?

When I repaired my friends Honda TRX 350 ES Rancher, it was a broken leveling sensor located at the base of the engine in the front. It was broken in half and so it was not sending a signal to the ECU. So the ECU wouldn’t let the electric shift operate. When I replaced the leveling sensor, the electric shift worked great.

Why does my Honda ATV not shift gears?

ATVs with an electric shifter, like the Honda AS models, uses an electric motor to shift through the gears. If the motor does not work, the bike will not shift gears. The only way to make it shift is by using the emergency shifter (a short-shifting shaft sticking out the left lower side of the engine, use the supplied gear change tool).

Why does my ATV spin in one direction?

If the washers are worn, the belt may not ride in the grooves as it should and instead ride one of the sheaves. Some ATVs with engine brake systems have a primary clutch with a one-way sprag bearing, a so-called one-way clutch. It is supposed to spin freely in one direction and be locked in the other direction.
