Suzuki eiger atv backfires on acceleration - Cars & Trucks

Some ignition part is old w resistence makn it hot. Umay need to test each component. Its probly the coil or module. Buya a clymer or haynes book for total repair

no transmission.
get the shop manual and read?
the trans has clutch pack for engine then a drive belt.
it is CVT drive, (the pulley magic box)
id check cables first for shifting not too much slack.
the CVT can not go in reverse. so the reverse /forward is downstream from the CVT.
and not wheel bearings, it is this shift box, issue. or just a bad cable, to it etc. are you really owning this> (400 only seems wrong)
2008 Suzuki LT-Z400 . eiger 400, or

if the clutch fails and drags it will not want to shift easy
or the cable is bad, or not adusted, right it can not shift right
look for simple things first
like this, if it does not go forward make sure FIRST the cable even goes to forward mode. (at the end of the cable)

you need service and repair manual to fix the problem and you can get the manual from the given link http://toolsnyou.com/

all the knowledge you can get from the service and repair manual which will help you to fix the problem and you can do it by your own and to get the manual go to the given link http://toolsnyou.com/

there will be an expansion tank that hold/refill the coolant , look for plastic tank could be round , square beside rad , with coolant hoses to it , make sure engine cold when removing cap, will need to drain old coolant before refilling with new , worth checking the coolant strenght before draining as may still be ok

multix? what is that?
is this ATV? if yes post to ATV not cars.
ATV are not cars. or trucks.
sorry.
what engine, tell poster, engine size or real name
off suzuki wiki, on same. tells them all.

Hi Dion:
When under acceleration, an engine experiences increased cylinder pressures. If you have a spark plug(s) that is in poor condition, it can misfire (or not fire) then, so the unburned fuel will ignite in the exhaust, and "backfire".

Another possible cause could be that the timing is not retarding when the vacuum drops under acceleration.

My recommendation?
TIME FOR A TUNE UP
Cheerfuls.

Not sure what vehicle you are talking about, but backfiring is caused by gas not being fully combusted by the engine and passing into the exhaust system and igniting. So, when you step on the gas pedal, you are probably flooding the engine - I suggest you have another close look at your carburetor. There are also other less common reasons for incomplete combustion (e.g. timing, poor ignition, etc.).

yes,the blue is usually a nuetral

Turn the ignition and start the Suzuki Eiger. If the engine has difficulty starting or will not start at all, there may be a problem in the electrical or starting system. Remove the spark plug wire from the spark plug and remove the spark plug from the engine using a spark plug wrench. You can replace the spark plug or use a wire brush and gap tool to clean and re-gap the spark plug. Insert and tighten the spark plug, reattach the spark plug wire and try to restart the engine. Remove the battery cables from the battery and attach a battery meter to the battery. Observe the amount of charge the battery is holding and if the meter has a test feature, test the battery to see if it will dispense the correct amount of power. Clean the battery contacts with a wire brush and reconnect the battery cables. Check the oil, gas, transmission and brake fluid levels on the Suzuki Eiger. If there is not enough gas in the ATV, it will not start. Checking the fluids regularly to see if there are any leaks or if any of the fluids are dangerously low. Top up any fluids that may be low before you use the ATV. Adjust the fuel idle mixture screw on the Suzuki Eiger's carburetor if the engine is running rough. Inspect the air intake and exhaust pipe for the Suzuki Eiger. Any blockage in or on these components can affect engine performance. OBD2 PROMOTION FindOBD2 com
