Goober 1,555 Posted April 11, 2020 Hey @Deer_hunter_088 is that a D model with an 86 front fender? If you’re not sure, reference the engine number and frame. the 86-87 A model has a different ignition system than the D model. Some other differences like brake cylinders, kill switch etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Im having issues with spark find the vin number, stamped right in middle of frame, right behind the front bumper. from the looks of it, it looks like a '86 model.

shadetree 5,553 Posted April 22, 2020 title says 1986 trx350D, for the record, honda did not make a '86 trx350D, it was only called a 1986 trx350 fourtrax. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jeepwm69 7,233 Posted April 22, 2020 Sticker on the front dead center will give year model and say either 350D or 350. If it's an 86 it's definitely a 350A Fourtrax. 87 it could be either (and it matters, because they have different CDI's). 88-up were all 350D's 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Im having issues with spark If you turn on master switch you should have a steady neutral light and the oil light should come on momentarily and then go out. connect the two oil sensor leads —cover behind right footpeg—the oil light should illuminate and fan kick on. If not, check FCU connections (left fwd inner fender removal). If you roll over the starter or kick it, you should hear the fuel pump buzz. If not, open carb drain to see if fuel in carb. If still no buzzing, do the fuel flow test. Check fuel cutoff relay (right aft frame under fender). Squirt a bit of starting fluid in the carb—if it fires once and quits then suspect CDI. Check connections (right fwd inner fender removal). If no fire, check continuity/resistance values of stator. clean all connections with a plumbers flux brush and contact cleaner. Lube all connections and backshells with a separate plumbers flux brush and permatex dielectric grease Edited April 24, 2020 by Goober 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jeepwm69 7,233 Posted June 17, 2020 Yep, that's why I said "87 it could be either", as in either a 350D or a 350A🤡 Wanted to make sure he knew which particular one he had. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
