I just picked this up Friday. It has been sitting up for many years and needs some help. the fuel lines had all been removed and I have no idea where they go. the Fuel pump looks new.

first thing was to soak the carb. if you have never tried pinesol as carb cleaner you should. I will never use carb cleaner again.

the carb was jettet with a 140 main
45 slow
35 slide
and the needle is on the top clip.

the fuel lines were disconnected and the T-fitting had the return line blocked off. How can I tell if I have the correct float?

Looks nice, the 350 service manual will show the factory hose routing.

the fuel tank was rusty so I dropped it off at the local radiator shop to be vatted.

I did start it though. I used an old coolant bottle from a Polaris to supply some fuel.

is there an on line version?

found it. I see some people run clear lines where can I find them and what size?

Here is a pic that was sent to me to figure mine out.

thanks for the help. ill try to make a report on the progress once i get the tank back.

Lemon or lime juice in a pan on the stove is the best carb parts cleaner I have ever seen, will have to try the pinesol thing you use it straight?

i used it straight. Google pinesol carb cleaner and you will be amazed at the results. You really don't even have to take the carb apart although i do. Just look at my pics and that is onlt a 3 hour soak. Not to mention the shop smells clean!!

Awesome! And it doesn't eat plastic parts? Love it.

nope, and does not bother the rubber gaskets.

small update on this project. I managed to get 3 new fuel filters today. I ordered the FRAM G4168 from advanced auto parts as discussed in this post.

the gas tank is still at the shop so no ride yet. This was supposed to take two days and it has been five. that sucks.

I did pull the steering column to clean / lube it. the steering was extremely tight. the lower end of the shaft was corroded up. i cleaned and lubed it with synthetic boat trailer bearing grease. the steering is super easy now.

the left upper J-Arm bushing is worn and letting the wheel tip in. can i replace them? a bigger problem is that I think the J-arm mount may even be slightly bent. That sucks. I guess a TRX450r suspension may be necessary.

next i need to buy a battery and replaced the pull rope.

Glad you found the filter at advance... I may have to order a few myself. I tried to order from
Autozone and you are correct... They can't get em anymore. Thanks for the update!!

no problem.

look what followed me home last night. a 2005 trx450r with an Engine problem. (sellers pic) it may be a suspension donor for the fl350 if it is too far gone. I think (hope) that it may just be the cam chain slapping. I'll be doing a CSI later today.

(edit) the whole bottom end is trashed. dang it!!!!!

My two car garage is getting full with a 71 bronco, 90 Polaris sportsman, 50 Polaris preditor, fl350, fl450, and now a trx450r. that does not included tools, welders, metal brake, etc.

well it is alive!!!

You can get a pdf copy of all three oddy models here at this site: http://www.atlanticpaints.com/Manuals/O ... anuals.htm
It's free.

Is the Engine worth rebuilding or is it like the the dirt bikes 3-4k bux to repair?

it will be around $750 in parts to rebuild.
