How to increase the top speed of a Kawasaki MULE?

Why is the Kawasaki MULE called a mule?
MULE is an acronym, standing for Multi-Use Light Equipment, and is an apt name indeed because this nifty little hauler can do a lot, especially in its four-wheel-drive avatar, which is different from an AWD. If you own a farm and need to haul fertilizer for the crops or oilseed for the barn animals, this is the perfect little vehicle to do it in.
Are there any problems with the Kawasaki MULE 4010?
Yes fuel pumps have been problematic but the 2012 and newer pumps have addressed many of the issues. Mainly the pressure relief valve and fuel filter. It is impossible to get an “old style” pump…the part numbers have been superceded to the new style. Might pick up a service manual too.
How often should you change the throttle on a Kawasaki MULE?
Combine that with oil vapors from a poorly-engineered CCV system and the design of the throttle assembly, it all adds up to problems. Valve adjustment should be done about every 200 hours. It’s real easy and not very expensive if you pay the dealer. At least compared to a new throttle body assembly.
Where is the CCV vent on a Kawasaki MULE?
Also on that subject, Kawasaki recommends re-routing the CCV (closed crankcase vent) hose to a different location. They have a kit for it, ask your dealer for it. The 2013 and newer models had it done from the factory.
Do you need a harness for a carbureted Kawasaki MULE?
Yeah if you’re contemplating changing the engine to a carbureted engine, you’ll need a harness, CDI, fuel pump relay, fuel tank, fuel pump, hoses, engine (complete-the block is slightly different), voltage regulator, and a bunch of other stuff to make it right. It all adds up, and fast.
