2004 Eiger 400 4x4, Question: My Suzuki Eiger since new is very difficult to operate during the winter when I use it the most. The choke has to stay on a very long time, and with the higher idle, the atv doesn't want to go into any gear. I know it needs to be richer at idle and just off idle. I loosened the clamps, rotated the carb, removed the mixture screw cap, turned the screw out 1/4 turn, it got worse. I was able to turn the screw back in 1/4 turn on the atv.(very difficult) I tried to turn it further in but it is next to impossible to adjust on the atv, while it's warm. I asume the screw is a air screw since I think it richened in turning the screw in. Please tell me am I far off base with this problem, and how to correct my problem. Thank you very much and have a wonderful day! - David, Akron, Ohio   - answer this question...

Answer: there is another adjusment screw on your carburetor for the idle but u have to remove the carburetor to get to it. u have to leave ur choke on for a long time because its not getting enough gas at idle to warm up .and putting it in gear at a high i dle will ess up the electronic high and low range parts in the transmission - baby c, lumberport , West Virginia
