How do you strip a carburetor for suzuki LTZ400 ATV 2007?

Answer 1

Hi ya, it's pretty easy once you have done it a couple of times, first remove the side and tank plastics, undo the 2 screws holding the fuel tank in, (when you take the fuel pipe off the carb remember to clamp the pipe as the ltz doesn't have an off position on the fuel tap). You can then clearly see the carb. You then need to remove the throttle cable, I've found this easier to remove from the thumb throttle housing and leave it on the carb for the time being. It's then time to disconnect the throttle position sensor, which again disconnect from the connector rather than off the carb. Once this is disconnected it is just a case of removing the rubber boots from the carb to the air filter and to the inlet. Remember to block up the inlet with a clean rag otherwise you will have a more serious problem if anything gets dropped down there. The 2007 model doesnt have a choke cable so that makes it a bit easier. There is also an overflow pipe that is on the bottom of the carb bowl that should just pull off. When you start to dismantle the carb do it on a towel or something so if anything drops out it doesnt bounce! Happy stripping!
