Hello. Sooo.. i bought my son an atv at christmas, i got sick to death of being doubled by him so i bought a cheap atc200es to ride with him and keep an eye on him. The guy told me it ran a while back, get it started and your away.
I got it running but when i try put it in gear (1 down) it stalls every time. Then it stalled and locked in gear, wouldnt go back to neutral so wouldnt start. Eventually it freed up but engine was labouring on start and only by pressing the gear lever down slightly would run free. 8 started it a few more times like this and tried changing gear and it kept stalling. Then on 1 attempt there was alot of clutchy smelling smoke and it runs free in neutral without the need to press the gear lever down slightly.
Did i burn out the clutch? Why was the trike stalling?
Can anyone help me?
