I emailed Jerry and bought my jets from him. Got the air screw 1.5 out from seated I also have the idle adjust screw all the way out. I also have a hard time finding tdc.

Behind flywheel upper right screw should be a timing line. Line it up with line on stator. Pull flywheel to check this, could have moved

Remove the flywheel and check see if the wood-riff key is there or it may be sheared. Use a flywheel puller made for the LT 500 flywheel and not a 2 or 3 prong puller.

Hay Derrick. Take and post some pictures of what all these components talked about look like. I have never had that side of my engine cover removed. To me a picture is worth a million words.

Jerry will a banshee flywheel puller work as long as its not three pronged? And Mike ill take lots of pictures since ill be learning while doing this ill need photos to reference and as always they'll be posted here sir.

Same puller as a trx250r uses.

I was told to rotate the stator plate clockwise abit so that the indicator marks are in alignment but are offset ever so slightly.

Buckeye513 · « **Reply #456 on:** August 26, 2013, 03:22:22 pm »

Well here's what I see behind the stator cover don't have a wheel puller yet. Will post more pics when I get the wheel off.

Stpltn250r · « **Reply #459 on:** August 26, 2013, 04:19:25 pm »

i meant counterclockwise.

Stpltn250r · « **Reply #460 on:** August 26, 2013, 04:23:01 pm »

last but not least.

Buckeye513 · « **Reply #461 on:** August 26, 2013, 07:22:21 pm »

Lines are lined up, fly wheel key is in there, getting spark, plug is wet, motoman even came over and ripped on it and still nothing. PULLING MY EFFIN HAIR OUT!!!

Stpltn250r · « **Reply #462 on:** August 26, 2013, 07:24:58 pm »

and you did a leak down test correct?

BadMoonRacing500 · « **Reply #463 on:** August 26, 2013, 07:26:31 pm »

I was just gonna say that chris

Dezsled · « **Reply #464 on:** August 26, 2013, 07:29:11 pm »

A spare parts quad would help too

Gotta extra cdi & coil to try out?

Rider414 · « **Reply #465 on:** August 26, 2013, 07:37:49 pm »

Nobody said Zilla's are easy to put together. Keep at it sir.

Buckeye513 · « **Reply #466 on:** August 26, 2013, 07:56:14 pm »

No leak down test done. I don't have a tester so ill pull the motor and take it to the atv shop and have them do one.

Dez I'm getting spark so if it were the stator I would think I wouldn't be getting spark. I don't know though cause I'm clearly no pro at any of this.

And Rider thanks for the encouragement lol motoman said I told you Zillas are for working on not riding lol

LOL, I keeps it real yo.

My brother has a leak down tester somewhere that he used on his banshee. I'll find it.

Awesome Chris ill pull the carb and exhaust tonight or tomorrow night. Gonna pull the carb apart and make sure everything is clean again too.

Buckeye513 · « **Reply #470 on:** August 27, 2013, 06:27:03 am »

Could there be a problem with my ground causing this? Just curious trying to think of any and all possibilities.

Chuckie25 · « **Reply #471 on:** August 27, 2013, 08:26:01 am »

I had a ground problem with mine at first. It would fire sporadically. Cleaned up all grounds and connections and BAM good as gold

Buckeye513 · « **Reply #472 on:** August 27, 2013, 08:31:58 am »

Kinda seems like what I'm getting. Gonna clean the powder coat off my ground locations better and reconnect.

Chuckie25 · « **Reply #473 on:** August 27, 2013, 08:46:26 am »

The lower engine mount is what I would go after. You can pull the bolt and drop the spacers so you can get to both the engine and frame to clean up. I'd clean the crap out of where the coil butts against the frame as well. Or, if you don't want to tear up fresh powder that much you can make a wire to run between coil and engine.

Buckeye513 · « **Reply #474 on:** August 27, 2013, 08:51:37 am »

I have it grounded at the cdi box mounting point but I'm pretty sure I can get it more bare metal than I have it.
