Polaris Youth Carburetors are calibrated for an altitude of 0-6000 ft. (0-1800 meters) and ambient temperatures between +40 and +80° F (+5° to +26° C). The oil check valve has a higher resistance spec to eliminate leaking oil into the carb. HIGH ALTITUDE OPERATION Scrambler 50 2003 Youth ATVs have been tested to 12,000 ft above Cutaway sea level to assure satisfactory performance.

FUEL SYSTEM/CARBURETION The engine of a vehicle is operated under a wide range of conditions, from idling with the throttle valve remaining almost closed, to full load or maximum output with the throttle valve fully opened. In order to meet the requirements for the proper mixture ratio under these varying conditions, a low speed fuel system, or pilot system, and a main fuel system are Fuel Supply. FUEL SYSTEM/CARBURETION AIR SCREW throttle valve opening (between 1/4 and 3/4 opening). The air screw controls the fuel mixture from idle to low Having the proper needle jet and jet needle has a speeds. The tapered tip of the air screw projects into major impact on engine performance at partial load. FUEL SYSTEM/CARBURETION inside the needle jet.

THROTTLE SLIDE The throttle slide controls the rate of engine air intake by moving up and down inside the main bore. At small Needle Jet throttle openings, air flow control is performed chiefly by the cutaway. By controlling air flow the negative pressure over the needle jet is regulated, in turn varying the fuel flow.

FUEL SYSTEM/CARBURETION PILOT SYSTEM SLIDE CUTAWAY (Idle-3/8 THROTTLE) (1/8-3/8 Throttle) The pilot system’s main function is to meter fuel at idle Throttle valve cutaway effect is most noticeable at 1/4 and low speed driving. Though its main function is to throttle opening. FUEL SYSTEM/CARBURETION During low speed driving, there is very little clearance between the jet needle and the needle jet; therefore, General Carburetor Representation very little fuel from the main jet can pass between the jet needle and the needle jet. As the throttle valve Clip Position opening is increased, the tapered jet needle is raised (Shown in #3). FUEL SYSTEM/CARBURETION 3. The float should be parallel ±1 mm to the gasket The jet needle and needle jet have an effective operating range from approximately 1/8 to 7/8 throttle surface on all youth model ATV carburetors.

The amount of fuel delivered during this When setting the float, be sure inlet needle valve range relies upon the jet needle clip position, as well spring is not compressed. FUEL SYSTEM/CARBURETION CARBURETOR FLOAT BOWL DRAINING The carburetor float bowl should be drained periodically to remove moisture or sediment from the bowl, or before extended periods of storage. NOTE: A drain plug is located on the side of the float bowl. PROCEDURE Youth ATV Cold Weather Starting Procedure (Less Than 40F (4C)) NOTE: Polaris Youth ATVs are factory jetted for 40- -80F (4- -27C). If the ATV has not been driven recently or has “summer gas”, replace the fuel in the tank with “winter gas” and drain the fuel from the float bowl until it has fresh fuel (photo 1). FUEL SYSTEM/CARBURETION TROUBLESHOOTING FUEL STARVATION/LEAN MIXTURE POOR IDLE Symptoms: Idle too high. Symptoms: Hard start or no start, bog, backfire, popping through intake / exhaust, hesitation, Idle adjusted improperly/idle detonation, low power, spark plug erosion, engine mixture screw damaged runs hot, surging, high idle, idle speed erratic.
