yes, they do blow air, or suppose too anyway !..lol.

welcome louis, i see you made it over !, your in great hands here !.

update: some front fender patch work, this is NOT done !, its only the gluing and supporting part of my repair.

dang bro, you may as well just build a swamp buggy !..lol. 14 inch rims, with a 410 bolt pattern is going to be very, very hard to find to fit on your trx300fw !..lol.

most honda oem rims will have the offset numbers stamped into the rim, something like 6.2x12, 5.0x12, so on and so on. ( these are example numbers only !. )

from my understanding , when you measure offset, you measure from center of rim, to outer edge of inside rim lip. you must also take into account for the tire width when mounted, so it will clear everything near it, such as mufflers.

update: finally got off my butt, and got back on the fender tear down, here's some progress pic's of what i got done today. rear fender all tore down, front fender all tore down. as you can see in the front fender area that is all messed up ?, i will repair it, make it new ( or close to new anyway ) so not to show this bad area.

i use my parts washer all the time, i buy the fluid from tractor supply, a tad pricey for 5 gallons ?, but has a very high flash point, hardly no smell, and last a very long time before i have to replace it.

yep, meant heber springs..lol, sorry, long day when i posted that. its where i go to ride my jet ski, love that lake !.

nice boat duck !. you should take it over to hyber springs this summer, i'll have my yamaha waverunner there this summer !.

@brantley, there ARE shindy fake kits being sold as the real kits on ebay and the web, some of these kits are made in china !. if it does not say '' made in japan '' on the package ?, i wont trust it !.

2 1/2 turns should work out fine. i'd rather them run rich than lean any day !.

nah, i wont say every shindy kit is fool proof ?, i'm sure there will be a dud in one or two ?..lol. i just know, unless its a shindy fake kit ?, i have not had any issues with them in all my builds. its all good bro :-).

just set the fuel/air mixture jet before you install the carb, thats all you need to do, if your carb is clean ?, and you put the fuel/air mixture jet in right ?, have it turned out about the right amount of turns ?, there will be no need to reach under the front of the carb to tweak it !. reason: ALL CARBS ARE SET TO RUN LEAN ANYWAY FROM HONDA FACTORY'S !. 2 1/12 turns out from lightly seated is plenty, no need to tweak it from there.

please know what your talking about concerning shindy kits !, yes..there are bizz's out there that sell FAKE SHINDY KITS !, but i myself, along with many other members here will back shindy up 100% all the way !. i have been restoring honda atvs for 28 years, and in every carb rebuild, i have used shindy rebuild kits, NOT ONE KIT HAS LET ME DOWN !. soooooo..not to rain on your parade ?!, but you need to learn more of your subject before you talk about it :-).

and i see you came from other site like i pointed ya ?, good to see ya here big bird lots of great, smart members here, no ad's here !.

welcome to the forums !.

too bad you joined up here too late !, i've tossed many of these boards right in the trash, when i rebuild/restore models with these ?, they get new for showing no miles/hours.

just bite the bullet, buy a new meter.

lol, i've got a brand new 14 ft alum boat, with a brand new mercury 25 hp, 4-stroke, brand new '15 yamaha waverunner, ho cruiser , with about 15 hrs on it ?, plenty of toys, just no time to enjoy them !..lol.

pass on the decal, not worth 60 shipped to me, good luck though on your sale !.

i'm on disability , soo, i know what its like to save a buck or two !..lol. buy that line, it will work just fine.

3/16 ID should work just great, stop over thinking this !!..lol does it really matter if the '' correct '' size is on that float bowl line ?..no !!. its just a drain line..nothing more, nothing less !. i told you to buy some fish pump line from wally world, did you do this ???.

and now you know why i only work on my own atvs !..lol

tan one, some where from 1200 to 1500 if its in decent shape ?. 2 wd are not worth much around these parts.
