Why doesn't it move when gas pedal is pushed?
If your vehicle's gas pedal is pushed, but the vehicle is not moving, there could be a few potential causes, depending on the type of vehicle and transmission.
- Transmission issues: One possible cause could be a problem with the transmission. If your vehicle has an automatic transmission, it could be that the transmission is not engaging properly or is slipping, preventing the vehicle from moving. In a manual transmission vehicle, the clutch may be slipping or not engaging properly.
- Drive train problems: Another potential cause could be a problem with the drive train, such as a broken or disconnected axle, driveshaft, or differential.
- Brake issues: If the brakes are engaged or stuck, the vehicle may not move even if the gas pedal is pressed. Make sure the emergency brake is released, and that the brake pedal is not stuck.
- Engine issues: If the engine is not running properly or has a mechanical problem, it may not have enough power to move the vehicle. Check the engine for any warning lights or unusual sounds.
It's important to address any issues with your vehicle promptly and to seek the help of a qualified mechanic to diagnose and repair the problem. A mechanic will be able to perform a thorough inspection and identify the root cause of the issue.
My 1997 yamaha timberwolf 250
The cold weather may cause your Yamaha Timberwolf to experience hard starting, several months and no use, or a stale fuel supply. Start by replacing the spark plug, if the engine still does not fire up, clean the carburetor and make sure all the hoses are connected tightly with no air leaks. If none of these strategies work, the carburetor may need to be adjusted or replaced. You may want to take it to an experienced mechanic if you are unable to get the engine started.
2005 Yamaha Bruin 350 ATV. What will cause my ATV not to run? Gas is coming from drain tube?
Question edited for clarity.
Question moved from motorcycles to ATV model category.
Turning over has nothing to do with the carburetor! Your battery is flat. It will need charging.
If the carb is leaking, it is because the float is set wrong or the float valve needle isn't seating properly.
Engines only need three things to run.
A supply of clean fresh fuel (not sitting a year)
A Spark at the right time.
Compression.
You say you cleaned the carb **in** carb cleaner, as opposed to *with* carb cleaner. Did you strip it down, check the float for holes, clean the jets and needles?
