This video was very helpful to my repair efforts on my Kawasaki.
Great to hear when a video is helpful! Check out our website if you need parts! www.midnebraskamotorsports.com/
Just what i needed - appreciate you taking the time. Clear instruction and experienced tips made it easier than i thought. Shes running noticeably better, and with that its time to go hit these trails! Cheers
Thanks for the walkthrough you did a great job I kind of knew what I was doing to begin with but it's always nice to have somebody walk through with you on some jobs👍
I used the all balls rebuild kit for my prairie 300’s carb! The best part about their kit is it comes with new screws
Great work, man. Thank you.
Thank you for watching and the comment. Check out our website if you need parts! www.midnebraskamotorsports.com/
Great video but how do you get to air adjustment screaw if it is blocked by metal
Love to see comments like this. You know what, I have a video coming out on that. Hit that subscribe button so you are notified when it is released. Thanks for watching. Let us know if you need anything: www.ebay.com/str/midnebraskamotorsports
Great video. Thank you. This is my first time dealing with a slide of this type that is vacuum actuated rather than directly actuated via cable. I am having terrible starting/idling issues that I believed to be a clogged pilot. Although I found no obvious restrictions/blockages. But I did notice that the air/fuel screw appears to be missing the spring which could have allowed it to back out and foul up the air fuel mixture. I’m hoping that will remedy. I, unfortunately, didn’t note where the air/fuel screw was initially. Like a rookie.... if you have any other suggestions I’m all ears. I would like to add one thing to help those that watch this. Don’t forget to take your carb cleaner nozzle/straw and spray it through all of the air/fuel circuits-followed by compressed air. I’ve found this to be very helpful also. Any point within the carb that air or fuel flows, is a potential cause for issue.
Great bunch of instructional videos you do. Question for you on a 1995 Bayou 300 standard bike , do you know what the black rubber hoses are for and what there to be connected to ,they come off the rear brakes and a third one I have not traced yet . There looking like an air line of some sort and they are connected on the brakes but just lead to the air box ? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Cheers from Blissfield New Brunswick Canada
Does the carb also have a gas draining hose on the bottom of it where the electrical connections go?
is there any difference between a Honda atv 4x4 rear end as a kawasaki prairie 4x4 and what if any thanks
You are wanting to swap them out. Yea that WON'T come close to working. Let me know if you need a rear end for either of them. www.ebay.com/str/midnebraskamotorsports
thanks but no i don,t need one just looking at pictures they just look the same and wanted your input @@MidNebraskaMotorsports

Where does the wire on the carburetor plug into
Is it normal for you to have to keep the choke on for a minute then turn the idle speed screw in on warmup? Is this a problem with dirty jets?
Quick question. What setting is the position on that idle speed adjustment screw ( the black one on right side of the carb) adjusted to? I have yo back out the pilot screw on the bottom
Of the carb more than 2 1/2 turns to get the carb to run. Soon as I let go of the throttle, it dies. A buddy of mine said it doesn’t matter what the idle screw is at. I disagree. Do Yu want to adjust it so u see the first hole on the air intake side is showing? I’ve cleaned this carb thoroughly. On the advice of the dealer / service, I put a 155 jet in instead of the 150 here in Colorado and it seems worse. Maybe it’s the idle screw adjustment. . Ran last year. But when I went to stop, I had to open the choke half way so it would stay running. This year, it just bogs down n won’t run faster than 2 mph. Soaked jets n carb in berrymans, put back in and it’s worse. Any suggestions would be awesome! Great videos by the way. I watched this video n others by u when taking apart my carb on my 2007 Kawasaki 360 prairie . I feel like I should put all the old jets back in. New gasket is in, springs and washers 🤦🏼♂️
Sean, sorry for the slow response. Every atv is different when it comes to idle adjust. There isn't set number of turn out or in. After the Prairie is warmed up, turn the knob until the atv idles, but not too high that it lurches in gear. Let me know if that helps. Thanks again.
@@MidNebraskaMotorsports I do appreciate the response! Thanks man. Yea still having some issues. Set the screw out on the bottom
Of the carb and backed out the air slowly as it was idling. I think I got it down. Sucks because I have to take the gas tank off each time because the idle screw is hard to reach. I got the new carb kit n honestly? It runs better w the older jets. I used the new gasket n maybe one jet. A dealer suggested I used a different jet so it will run lean. Tried that . Works worse . I have it at a friends who we ride on his 150 acres. 40 miles away so hard to work on it all the time . The good news is that I got it idling great. But, bogs down when I give it gas. I’m thinking it still needs cleaned . Bud man, it’s clean as hell. At a loss. It Starts on a pull. I have changed the plug , did the jets , cleaned the carb 3 times, initially put a new air filter in. No lights are on like the belt. Not sure what else it can be w out throwing in the town n having someone else work on it. I never use the battery to start it. Always pulls on first pull. But, I did go get a new battery last week. Show not effect the running I’d think. But at this point, I’ll give anything a go. Thanks for your response bud .
Does anyone have a picture we're the bottom hose on the carburetor goes
What is the brand name of that carburetor
When you were referring to the pilot jet stating that you can see through it??? which way??? Normally I would think that you can see through the length of the jet and also through each of the two small holes...Am I way off base or were you just referring to the smaller holes on the side of the tube??? thanks
Just had the same problem with the pilot jet it was completely plugged. I have a very small set of drill bits made for drilling out air bleeds on carburetors. I used a small pin to start loosening the crap in the hole then started with my smallest drill bit. I clamped the drill bit in a pair of vise grips and spun the jet on top of the bit. With drill bits this small they break easy so be very careful. You also need to be sure you are just removing the crap in the jet and don’t take any metal out of the jet. I ran this jet in a ultrasonic cleaner for hours and it didn’t clean it. All good now. I bought the drill bits from harbor freight they come in a small plastic package for only a few dollars.
My prairie 360 is backfiring through the carb when engine is cold, when engine gets warm it runs perfect. I’ve been through the carb twice and even adjusted the fuel mixture screw to make it a little richer. That seemed to help a little bit, but it’s still doing it. Any advice would really be appreciated
Check your valve clearance the spec is listed under your seat
Ok I’ll check that, thanks!
Let me know if that helps you
What year is this? I have a 2011 with the same choke plunger screw in to the carb but can't find it with that curve to it... ain't trying to get the wrong one. Thanks for the vid!
How does the dynojet work for this atv i have a grand prairie 360 and ima install snorkels and they told me to buy the kit what do i need to do with it what is it
@@MidNebraskaMotorsports thx alot for your reply and video also heard that ppl are having problems in using the right size that sounds like it turnes off
If all my jets are clear and carb has been cleaned out. I can't figure out why my 360 likes the choke, and bogs at any throttle. What size jets are supposed to be in there? Or is there another fix?
The bike starts and idles just fine, just no throttle. Also I'd like to add, thanks for the solid content
Try swapping the two jets around both have the same thread size but very different in jet size.
There is a plug over my air fuel much screw. I'm guessing this is for emissions reasons. I bought a new carb kit that includes a new screw. Can I drill out the plug so I can access the screw or what can I do? Thanks
@@MidNebraskaMotorsports thank you. That's what I did. No problem. This fourwheeler is new to me. Few questions if you dont mind. There seems to be a little delay from when I give throttle to when the bike actually moves. Like a delay in trans. I know nothing about these autos, never had 1 before. Also, is this a particularly loud bike? Mine just seems super loud. Not the exhaust, just the engine noise. Thanks in advance.
@@pickledcottoncandy delay in the clutches grabbing the belt is what I've always assumed.
@@zztopinthehouse thanks for reply. Can that be fixed, or is it the nature of the cvt?
@@pickledcottoncandy just that way it is. As you rev it, clutch eventually grabs. All I've seen are like this. Idk if folks upgrading the clutches have that issue or not...upgrade is to accommodate bigger tires and mods of that nature.
I couldn't get the pilot jet out of mine it didn't have anywhere to stick a screwdriver
@@MidNebraskaMotorsports like a picture or ship you the carb
@@MidNebraskaMotorsports ok I'll send you a picture asap
@@MidNebraskaMotorsports I finally got around to removing that carburetor. Can I send you a picture to your email? If so what is it?
Never mind, found it.
Thanks for the comment!! Let me know if there is anything else I can help with!!
Where does the carburetor wire plug into
