[QUOTE="projectslideway, post: 14998990, member: 53911"] Thought I'd show everyone a little side project I've been working on over the last few weeks. Backstory: My grandfather picked up this Warrior brand new back in 1991. He kept up with the maintenance religiously until the late 2000's until it sat in a shed with bad gas a gunked up carb. This quad means the world to me... my grandfather would ride it while I rode my little Yamaha Badger 80 back in the day. When I was about 10 I got to graduate to this quad which is literally the vehicle that helped me learn the fundamentals of a clutch. As of lately, he has really slowed down physically and I wanted to do something for him. So I picked it up and got to work. I drained the bad fuel, it looked like iced tea. Put some fresh fuel in the tank with some seafoam and let it sit overnight. Came back and drained it back out (this, theoretically, helped clean the petcock screen). The intake manifold is a WEIRD design (it's two metal flanges with a molded rubber boot in the middle), apparently these a prone to failure on Warriors and cause symptoms like backfiring and poor/no driveability, so this torn piece was replaced. I also swapped the carb with a Caltric OE replacement. I also replaced the plug and greased all the zerks. Finally, I pressure washed it and this thing turned out fantastic. We used to beat the snot of of this four-wheeler and it always took it, great to have it back! Side note: Caltric carbs are great quality, bolted on, set the idle screw, rode it, and checked the plug. Good to go!
