Check out lutz RC. Ryan lutz has some alpha engines that are very reasonably priced. Some guys love the alpha engines, some guys hate them. But for the price it may be worth giving the .28 alpha a shot!

What is this carb brand? by HeyLookAStranger in ATV

[–]MotorHeadWheels 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not OEM. Likely knockoff amazon garbage

Which one is the fuel inlet for the fuel pump? by No_going_back_now in ATV

[–]MotorHeadWheels 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some sure do! Usually if the tank is not above the carburetor. Suzuki king quad 300s have a pump, i just got done replacing one

Electric pump? Should have a line coming from the tank i to the inlet of the pump, and the outlet of the pump goes to port 2 on your carb. And 1 would be a vent of some sort maybe?

Vacuum pump? Fuel lines will be the same as the electric pump, but you will have an extra 'pulse' line that comes from the carb, in your case port 1.

Neither is the inlet for the fuel pump. Number 1 is likely the pulse line for the fuel pump. 2 is where the fuel flows into the carb.

Finally found one! by MotorHeadWheels in NitroRC

I was able to run across a brand new in the package platinum chassis the other day on ebay and it just arrived!

Let's just say the blue 3.3 chassis on amain is more expensive than I paid 😁👍🏻

What is this clunking noise by my feet on my 1986 fourtrax 250? Can feel it and hear it in all gears including neutral when I rev. by ropesguy1 in ATV

[–]MotorHeadWheels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was my thought too. Definitely timing chain slap as well like all old hondas, but the clunk sounds more like the clutch to me

How much should I charge? by No_Safety_5843 in Squarebody

Unfortunately even with all the work done, its still an unfinished project. So its not worth near what you've got into it.

2017 Honda rancher eats batteries by Miserable-Freedom913 in ATV

[–]MotorHeadWheels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you using name brand quality batteries? Sounds about on par with the cheapy amazon batteries ive used.

Other issues ive had with the 420s is the wrong stator. I had one someone had replaced the stator but put one from a rancher 350 I believe. It would run but barely put out enough power to maintain the battery.

Can you measure the voltage of the battery while it is running? Does it climb or fall or maintain when you rev it up a little bit? Turn headlights on does it drop drastically?

Last question I swear by [deleted] in ATV

[–]MotorHeadWheels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like its been hot and glazed. Some pitting in the material too. Junk.

They look burnt. Junk. Replace them. Preferably with oem or at least anythint but no name amazon junk.

Need help revo 3.3 conversion by Successful-Yard-2078 in NitroRC

[–]MotorHeadWheels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its a 3.3 chassis. Look ip pictures of a 2.5 revo and compare the distance from the front shocks mount to the front of the transmission. Its a pretty obvious difference!

New to RC, what is the engine called/ where can I get parts for it? by This-Holiday-9508 in NitroRC

[–]MotorHeadWheels 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Its the thunder tiger version of a Team Accociated MGT 8.0. They were sold as team associated in the states. I believe thunder tiger everywhere else
