Ok have you heard of this happening before turn the key on for lights lights don't work and yellow check engine light comes on switch it to know lights check engine light goes off put a new battery in it thinking that maybe it didn't have enough juice to run it I don't know what else to do, replace the battery with a brand new one fully charged.

2002 Xployer 400 jetting issues running really rich
I picked up a barn find non running, in dire need of recusing 02 Xplorer 400. I've rebuilt the top end, and corrected a host of maintenance issues and or lack of maintenance issues. The quad will now start and move under it's own power... Yea for me... Unfortunately, it's running so rich, the fumes will burn your eyes. When trying stretch it's legs, it cannot rev out. It's definitely not lean, it's running way rich. I know based on the pungent gas smell in the exhaust fumes. It's so bad that when I came into the house from the garage where I had the quad running, the wife yelled at me "YOU STINK LIKE GAS.. go change and get a shower. Make sure you put the clothes straight to the washer".
So this is my plan....
1st - I know the float is too high and that will be the 1st thing I adjust.
2nd - I'm also going to look at the choke plunger. I Need to make sure it's fully seated when not is use.
3rd - I'll pull the jets and write down the numbers so I know what jets and needle are in the carb.
Any suggestions... or something I'm overlooking?

Leaking but not sure from were ?

2012 rear end metal on metal squeak
I have a 2012 outlander 1000 that has a metal on metal squeak. It's hard to tell exactly where it's coming from but I'm guessing the rear diff. It is intermittent as it doesn't do it all the time. When it does its usually at low speeds and will get faster with acceleration. I know my seals are bad, but I don't want to spend the time replacing them if I'm just going to need a new diff soon. I'm just hoping is not in the transmission. Anybody have any advice, or had this issue before? Any help is appreciated!
1999 Sportsman 335 – Belt Deflection – Non EBS
Bought a new belt, thought mine was stretched, when idles real slow or shut off machine it hits the inside of the cover - I see wear marks on it. This is a new to me ATV.
So the new belt has same deflection, it sits about 1/16" above the sheaves of the secondary when not running.
ATV runs and shifts fine, I just don't like the belt hitting the cover.
The only thing I found to adjust deflection is shimming the sheaves, the trans in not adjustable to move out the center to center dimension.
If I add shims (just got clutch off - so do not know what or how many shims are in it- looks original) this will make sheaves further apart, moving belt out some but it will lower it from the top of the sheave when not running.
Is this the correct process...
I need or would like to pick up about 1/4".
If I would of known the new belt same as old, I would of bought a shorter belt.
Playing with the idea of making a tensioner for the belt.
Thanks in advance...

2000 Polaris Sportsman 500 Clutch Spring Question
Hey everyone,
Just trying to wrap my head around this whole using different clutch springs on this machine.
A few of my friends are telling me that I can change out the clutch spring in the primary.
What are the different type of springs and what is accomplished with changing them out and where can these be purchased.
Most of the usage I will be performing with this machine is trail riding, some off road, and snowplowing.
Cheers
