    2000 Blaster will only idle

    I need to buy more beer. Went to take a test ride. Clicked it into gear and started letting out the clutch... I began moving .. backwards. It runs great,... backwards! Checked woodruf key and even slotted my stator plate trying to advance timing, no avail. I did replace the main coil and pulsar...

    2000 Blaster will only idle

    Eureka! I:I Finally, I’ve located the issue and the Blaster runs. Grandson and I have spent the evening and into the night putting parts back onto it. He’s a happy camper! :D Recall I predicted it would be something stupid and I’d kick myself for not finding much earlier? Well, as a last...

    2000 Blaster will only idle

    Hold the beerz.. oops,,, too late I think. CDI box #3 has been obtained and the results are unchanged. I'm sure the issue, when found, will be something stupid that I should have discovered way, way earlier. I'm anxious for that to occur so I can kick my own butt and the grandkid can ride...

    2000 Blaster will only idle

    Carb, slide and connecting linkage have all been checked multiple times. Rear plastic w/ air box is off and we can see into the carb and watch the slide. I really wish this was what the problem was as it would have been fixed long ago... Thanks for the thoughts tho.

    Fuel flows liberally through the filter. I'm still going to eliminate it tho per your suggestion. Dont need any other issues exasperating this issue.

    2000 Blaster will only idle

    Hmm. Now you have me suspicious. I bought a RICK'S HOT SHOT CDI YAMAHA ATV YFS 200 BLASTER 1991-2002 Could it be this has been the issue all along? The old CDI box does the same. Suspecting it to be bad, I purchased this replacement on Ebay. Damn thing cost $40! But if the consensus is that...

    2000 Blaster will only idle

    TORS has been completely removed in step #1. It's like there is a limiter preventing rpm change.

    2000 Blaster will only idle

    Blaster is all back together and still has the exact same problem. Starts, idles but has absolutely no throttle response. I have a new pulasr module comming but skeptical it could be the issue. What about the voltage reg. Any way it could cause this? I'm thinking about connecting wires so it...

    2000 Blaster will only idle

    I've purchased a new piston and am sending the cylinder for bore when it gets here. I'm still skeptical of it fixing the idle problem but, I'll know when I get things back together. Thank's Blaaster for the video and instructions for leak down. The only problem I had was sealing the exhaust...

    2000 Blaster will only idle

    To further my education... what is a "Leak Down Test" and how is it accomplished? I have the pipes off and have visually inspected the rings through the exhaust hole. I have also had the head off and inspected the piston top and cylinder walls. Everything appears in order and no visible...

    2000 Blaster will only idle

    Reeds and carb are all OK. Pulled Mag and coil plate as a last place of interest. I'm probably wrong but dont believe this issue is related to compression, or lack thereof. Still gett'in the jug done but would like to have this issue solved first.. But if the CDI and charging coils all check...

    2000 Blaster will only idle

    Thanks guys! I'm heading back to the shop today and try your suggestions. Best- I'm checking the bowl idea first. I had recently set the needle one slot lower as my grandson rides rather slow and doesnt open it up much. Keeps it from loading up and fouling. I'm skeptical as I have tried...

    2000 Blaster will only idle

    Throttle wide open, 9 - 10 kicks I got 90 lbs on the nose. Not great but it should run... I've also removed all remnants of the TORS including throughout the harness. Gone! I've even replaced the main ignition coil in the mag. It starts and idles, but no response in rpm throughout the...

    2000 Blaster will only idle

    I've played with disconnecting the plugs at the carb, throttle lever and both together. Same result each time. I've even disconnected the 'brain' module plug entirely, same same... I'm perplexed.:-/

    2000 Blaster will only idle

    Air Cleaner is completely off. With the head removed, I can see the piston and arrow pointing forward. Gas is fresh. I had'nt considered the parking brake but dont see any cdi connection to it. I havent used it either so it isnt engaged but if there is a cdi connection, it may be the issue...

    2000 Blaster will only idle

    This has me stumped and I am hoping someone here can help. My grandsons 2000 blaster has suddenly quit running and I am working through process of eliminating what the potential culprit could be. It will fire and run only at an idle. Opening the throttle only results in flooding it out. No...

    We live in the Erie area and have great fun riding old railroad lines. These trails provide instant gratification on an otherwise boring day. We can easily ride to them from the house but they are an easy find for those needing to tow their wheels. The exploring is nearly endless as these...
