  • Need desparate help with jlo 10 hp motor

    I recently joined the AATV ranks when I bought an AC Terra Tiger. All hasn't been rosy tho. Got some debris in the carb, and it basically poured fuel into the motor non stop for hours before I realized it. Now I have a crankcase full of fuel! I pulled the plug and the carb off, and everytime I yank on the pull start, it's raining fuel. Please tell me there's a way to drain this and start over??? And feel free to talk to me as if I'm stupid. I sure feel stupid enough for letting this happen. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Many times there is a drain on the bottom of the crankcase. Sometimes it is a plug, others have a quick valve.

      If it's a JLO 297 there are 5 hex heads under the engine, the 4 outer are mounting bolts and the larger center one is the drain.

      My new beer holder spilled some on the trails - in it's hair and down it's throat.
      Joe Camel never does that.

      Advice is free, it's the application that costs.

        It has a drain plug on the bottom of motor. You'll have to pull motor to remove. You could take carb. off and run piston to the top and get a small tube and install into bottom of case and suck it out. And have used air gun to blow out a little out and dry. A new carb. is available with out the choke and it is worth it!
