My 2003 Pioneer 1200 is backfiring and wont idle
I cant figure out whats going on here and before I start pulling things apart I wanted to put this out to the board and see if anyone has any ideas.
I recently picked up a 2003 pioneer 1200 with 400cc Kawasaki engine, the motor was a little rough running so I removed and cleaned the carb, and installed a new plug and air filter and for the last month it was running an idling great, no hesitation or popping whatsoever. Then all a sudden after a short ride to the golf course it was difficult to start and wouldn't idle.. however at WOT it runs fine, but letting off the gas it will begin to backfire and when coming to a stop it would die. Does anyone have any thoughts. Thanks |

We’re you at full throttle or slow going? Was there’s any color smoke coming out? Need more info for anyone to help on this

I would suggest checking your valve clearance and resetting it. But, for me, my 290 that was backfiring ended up needing a new ignition coil.

when starting, which is tough w/o choke, it will puff out a little white smoke, but then that stops once it revs up. When moving at full throttle it seems to be fine,but when letting off it starts backfiring and will die if I let the engine come down to idle. pulled the plug and it looks sooty, but not oily; however the electrode surface is clean.
