Over time, a four wheeler is exposed to many types of weather as well as dust, dirt, and mud. Throughout many years, dirt and grit builds up inside a carburetor and causes the device to malfunction. When a carburetor stops working properly, the engine does not get the right amount of gas and air it needs to run properly. As a result, a four wheeler ceases to start when it is cranked.
Fortunately, however, relatively inexpensive carburetor repair kits can be ordered online so that individuals can fix the carburetor themselves. Repairing a carburetor involves three main steps: loosening and taking the carburetor out of the four wheeler, taking the carburetor apart to clean it and replace the worn-out parts (which are included in the kit), and, finally, reassembling the carburetor before mounting it back on the four wheeler.
In this repair guide, we will first show you how to disconnect and remove the carburetor from the four wheeler, and then we will show you how to thoroughly clean and replace its worn-out parts.

It was a good article until step # 7. This is not a gas line. It is an engine vent line that goes from the engine to the air cleaner box. It has nothing to do with gasoline.
Thanks for your feedback - this was absolutely a mistake and I have updated the article to correct it.
