Hey guys, haven't run the quad in an few months (summer in phoenix is to brutal), but seems to be flooding out? When I let it idle, I start to smell fuel and it dies after a bit (start up great cold). At this point I can smell the fuel.
If it let it sit a few minutes, it will restart, but will not restart until it sits. Turns over great, not weird sounds, nothing.
Only thing I've done, is to remove the twist throttle that was on it when I bought it, and put the stock one back on. I did use a new cable as well.
Any idea?

Check your TPS.
Dump some fresh fuel in 'er too.

clean the carb. Jets are probably clogged

Just be careful to not get any carb cleaner on the slide. It will damage the coating.

The TPS sensor is disabled I believe due to the origianl owner installing the twist throttle? I know it's not on the throttle any more, and I believe I remember seeing it pluged into itself down in the harness. Does that sound right?

My mistake, that must be the TORs switch.

the TPS should be spliced together somewhere under the hood

do you happen to notice when you smell the gas, is there any over flowing at the bottom of the bike? should be a little trickly of gas right at the back of the engine on the ground.

No, I'm not getting any out of the overflow.
