I never looked close at a four-wheeler ATVs until this winter. I bought six of them and have been going through them, one by one, in my shop this winter. Near every Japanese make. Yamaha, Kawasaki, Honda, and Suzuki.
I have a 1992 Suzuki 4WD 300 King Quad I am tearing apart now. It as an ice-fishing lake rig. No woods or field riding. Kind of like having "highway miles." Owner gave up trying to keep it running. Kept running out of fuel.
Questions? This ATV has a gas tank a lot higher then the carb. Yet it is a vacuum-operated fuel pump. Suzuki says it is not repairable a new one is $100.
#1. Why cannot I just hook up the fuel tank to the carb with no fuel pump with gravity feed? All I can figure is maybe if going down a very steep hill gas might not flow well? Old Ford Model Ts had that problem.
#2. I am wondering how a person is supposed to prime this system when it runs out of gas? I do not have a 1992 owner's manual that might have that answer.
I also have a 1995 4WD Suzuki King Quad I just finished and that has a fuel-primer-override to get it started if it was run out of gas. This 1992 has no primer or override.

Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
