Yeah man. The thing that got me was the torque for the flywheel jam nut. The original that came with my blaster was something harder than the Vitos +3mm stroker crank that was in the engine and ripped the threads off the end of the crankshaft. Now I run a softer metal jam nut and no washer so I...

Yeah ma, you'll get it! These Blasters are AWESOME! They just take a bit of a learning curve to get them up and running. The flywheel puller is like 8 bucks on Amazon and totally worth it. I've probably used mine 20 times since I got it.

If you can get it kicked over and idling but not revving, even if it takes a bunch of kicks, it may be timing/ignition stator, so your Woodruff key idea is valid. Like Larry said, it's gunna be hard not having it in front of you. Learning about how to delete the TORS properly and chasing the...

Welcome to the forum! I went through two Amazon stators, neither of which worked. Replacing with a genuine Rick's Motorsports Electronics stator kit fixed all my spark/timing/stator issues. I have a 2001, so it's a little different than your 03. You mention a TORS system, so I imagine you...

Just finished my conversion! I am now seeing I missed the "Add washer and sand until you hit the washer" part. So it's flush.

It looks like an front chain slider. Same concept as the lower rear one, just high and up front. ;) https://www.blasterforum.com/threads/modquad-chain-slider-guide-kit.7586/

Oh shoot! I didn't realize they were different between carbs! Always listen to Larry, he knows what's up!

I know this was forever ago, but that looks about normal. Mine smokes about that much with a smokeless oil.

So I'm on a fresh top end with a FMF Fatty and Powercore 2 Silencer, no TORS, in my 2001 Blaster and I'm running a 290 Main at 2300' elevation at 70°F and so far seems to be good, but will be doing plug chops here in the next few days to verify. The 32:1 mix with fresh premium gas and a good...

Are you starting from a fresh rebuild with your mods and want to put the carb on before you get it running or is it already running and you want to add the PWK carb? What help are you looking for? Start with bigger jets to compensate for the extra flow. If you don't have one already, pick up a...

This looks suspiciously like a bad/chinese stator. Idles fine, won't rev at all if you give it gas. I had the same issue after a top end rebuild and had used an Amazon stator. Ended up buying the Ricks Motorsports Hotshot kit and it worked great. Here's what mine was doing And here's the...

So, I had something similar where my blaster locked up shortly after starting and I couldn't get anything to move. I found one of the screws in the flywheel that holds the magnets in had backed out and jammed against the housing. I would check there first since it's an easy 5 10mm bolt pull to...

OH! Plug chops! That's what's next on the tinker/tune list! I've been looking forward to getting them started now that it's broke in proper.

My vocabulary is odd at the best of times. :rolleyes: Definitely from the Pacific Northwest US. Now in AZ and playing in the sunshine. The Blaster has now gone through three tanks of gas since I put the new top end on and it runs really well. Learning where the powerband begins has been a...

This may be stale, but, couple of questions: Does it still leak? Are you using the stock exhaust? Have you ever replaced the exhaust crush ring? Are there o-rings between the exhaust flange and the header pipe?

Yeah, I've pretty much learnt that with the Blasty. I'm going to chalk this one up to one of my nicer toys and realize that I have to get it nice parts. Right up there with that BMW I had a few years back.... I read a LOT about chi-nah parts on here and decided to ignore it in the hopes that my...

Alright, Rick's Motorsports Electronics Hot Shot Stator Rebuild Kit installed. Fires right up and revs like a champ. Problem absolutely solved. Lesson learned. Just because the ($30) ones from Amazon say they are for the YFS200 Blaster does not mean they actually work with it. $105 quick shipped...

As much as I would love to do that, I'm already way beyond budget for this quad. That may be an upgrade down the road. For right now I just want it to run properly and then I can start tuning. I tapped the threads in this carb to accept the Mikuni jets. The RM stator bits should be in today...

Awesome! I next day air'd it direct. I want it WORKING and I want it NOW! I've got a go-kart to flip and I can't flip it until I have a second running toy to go trail ride with the missus! Thanks for your help on this. I'll keep the thread updated as I swap stuff around.

....so now that I have it apart again and am actually taking a good look at this.... the stock charge coil for the ignition has two wires coming off of it, a black with red and a black with white.... I'm so sick of this dumb electrical stuff and also more frustrated with myself for not noticing...
