Thanks for the help. I put the new filter and the new spark plug and it runs great. Now if I can fix my rear end, it will be great.

Perhaps some fiber is a good idea.

LOL! What W&G said...

I'm glad it's running better! None of these CB's are too hard really. It's why I like them. I can get something brand new...but go back in time and wrench on a Chevy 350-type of bike.

My old neighbor bought a new Honda 450 MX bike and it wasn't running right out of the dealer. He asked me if I thought it was something simple. I looked a that bike and said "take it to the dealer". It would be like working on a new Corvette to this garage wrench.

New to the site was wondering if anyone has specs on what the valves should be set up at for these rhinos thanks. I too have a sputter at wot and she is a little hard to start once warmed up a bit it idles fine.

I set mine at .05MM intake and .08MM exhaust on all of my CG-style motors.

Thanks for the hospitality and the info. Hoping to learn some cool stuff from this place.

Set my valve lash and it definitely improved idle. Factory was too tight. The Rhino feels better overall but still not right. I can't make power in the run position I have to open the choke a quarter to 3/8 and then she pulls but still hesitates up top. Im guessing I'm lean. Is a carb replacement my only option. I haven't pulled the carb but from what I read you can't change jets can you clean them atleast?

That is lean. That could be caused by a air leak or bad gas. Ethanol is great about sucking water out of the air this time of year. Make sure your manifold has a good seal to the carb & your filter boot is snug. You should be able to adjust your mix & replace jets. If you posted pictures of both sides & the bottom of the carb it would make it easier to tell you what to do.
