Welcome aboard!

i found a website about a year ago with diagrams for the Bristers...... I'll do some looking again.

Kawasaki Spec's 10w40 https://www.amsoil.com/lookup/utv/2017/kawasaki/teryx4/800/

i think Suzuki made some for awhile

Kawasaki, Polaris and Kubota are what i call "the big three" for utility vehicles... you get the best bang for your buck without sacrificing QUALITY. If you get down to the cheap machines (Hisun, Massimo, Coleman, etc) that are loaded with features and cost only around 9,000.... you're sacrificing quality.

What are you trying to do, scare him off? 😉🤣🤣🤣

Welcome!

any way you can hammer a screwdriver through the filter?

i think the closest thing to that is the map https://www.utvboard.com/communitymap/

I'd go with 4 or 6..... Tractor supply sells battery cable and ends.

Great singer with good taste as well

very odd problem.... I'm curious too, did you purchase a carburetor with a Kawasaki Mule part number, or one for a FE290D engine? That may be the fly in the ointment as Kawasaki made them run somewhat leaner than the general purpose version of the FE290D to conform to all 50 state versions of air quality regulations that existed then. It also Sounds like there is a restriction, of some kind in the pilot circuit.... it's probably idled up high enough it's pulling some from the main jet as well. Just to be sure, The jet I circled in red is the pilot jet, which you adjust until the engine reaches the highest idle, now this idle may be too high too high for it to go into gear properly so you adjust it to the 1300 rpm spec with the screw in blue

It's both... If you're driving along and say you go up a hill or a heavier load gets put on the engine, the governor opens the throttle to maintain your speed, while also limiting Max engine RPM within a safe range.

also, there is another screw you could adjust that may be causing the governor to hang, where the throttle cable hooks to the control panel (on the engine) there should be a phillips head screw poking out from that cover, you can use that to raise or lower the RPM as it presets the tension on the governor spring. The manual calls it the Accel Lever screw. Engine fires one spark per revolution as it is a fixed coil and magnet on the flywheel. just like a lawnmower.

Oh okay, then that is the OEM Japanese carburetor. Do you have a tachometer? I would highly suggest you get one and set the idle at 1300 rpm and see how it does.

Could you post a link to the carburetor used. I had a similar issue with mine last year and it turned out i was not adjusting the idle jet screw properly... the way to set it like it came from the factory is to unscrew, or screw it in until the engine reaches the highest idle, then adjust the throttle stopper screw to 1300 RPM Those chinese aftermarket carbs are crapshoot if you get a good one or not. I have one on mine that is a KIPA brand from amazon.

I cant answer your question directly, however i know some folks out in central texas, AKA, meqsuite country. they deal with the thorns in tires all of the time. I'll ask them.

I don't think the ride would be any different, however you can probably expect the rears to wear out soon as most stock tires aren't made for asphalt/hard surfaces, as you've seen on the fronts.

should be the first one in the list https://www.utvboard.com/files/category/8-hisun/

I got the belt in the mail today.... on the belt it says, "HECHO EN MEXICO"

i wouldn't see why not. i would make sure both cables are the same size.

Well i finally bought a NEW muffler for ol' Red. and Boy she sure is quiet now! You can hold a conversation, or talk on the phone with it idling. and much smoother sounding at full throttle. I like it! i finally found one on Rocky Mountain ATV for 165 with Tax. cheapest place i found. Of course not every project goes fine and dandy, the bottom bolt where the inlet to the exhaust bolts to the exhaust pipe (seen left hand side of picture) , the 10mm bolt rounded off... couldn't get my rounded bolt miracle socket too it, so i took my air hammer and put a chisel bit in it, chiseled a cross in it, and then chiseled up from the bottom, doing that broke the head off and the bolt knocked right out with a few light taps from a punch. I put anti seize on the new hardware.

Diesel engine may be better in his case for more torque, hauling 4 people plus any gear/load in the bed and hilly terrain.
