Where is the fuel screw on a Yamaha Grizzly?

One type is called a fuel screw because it regulates the flow of fuel into the idle circuit. This type of screw is located ahead of the carbs slide tower (motor side) and is most often found under the carbs bore and upside-down directly ahead of the carbs float bowl.

Why is the fuel tank draining on my Grizzly 450?

Just had this problem on a ~ 2010 grizzly 450 here in Aus. Fuel **** not working, evident by no reserve fuel available, fuel shut off not functioning & tank drained via the carburetor. Fuel draining continuously from the water trap/flooding overflow hose at bottom of the carby & not able to be stopped with the fuel ****.

Why is my Yamaha Grizzly Ides not running?

Sounds like one of the following. The water/trash is still in there..check the float needle for signs of water/trash. The float height is too low starving the engine at higher than idle rpms. The float needle is sticking causing too low a fuel level. The main jet is clogged up.

Where is the needle valve on a Yamaha Grizzly?

Needle valve is higher up in the carb and accessible thru plastic cap on top of carb. It has a long spring & a black rubber diaphram that under vacuum lifts or drops the needle valve & assembly within the carb on throttle action. Waiting for the stop **** part to complete reassembly.
