Issues

Well my rhino issues are still not solved... Runs rough as hell, after idiling for a short bit will cut off, now its backfiring when letting off the throttle


Have a stock tip on the way hope it fixes it.


Any ideas????

Have you torn-down the carb????

that is one of the things I planned on doing

That's your problem I bet. Trash more than likely. It does not take much to stop-up the idle-circuit and give your symptoms. And surely you've changed the fuel-filter?

i would second the fuel filter and air filter

Check fuel lines all the way into the tank for silicon plugging them.

And the tank-vent also...............

I had the same issues.....the jets were clogged. 9, 10, 12, (jet holder) and 35 (jet pilot)

thanks for all the input and yes filter is clean I keep a spare also I still need to blow out the lines, but vent line is good I am going to try and tear into the carb before saturday as well as blow the lines out

When I had my Rhino, I had a similar problem. Found that when they drilled the holes in the tank, they didnt get all the shavings out. Had some stuff in the filter and in the carb.

That was most likely Silicon sealant from around the sending unit and pick up tube from the top of the tank. It deteriorates and falls into the tank. fairly common problem on the 05-07's.

well blew out the what I believe was the "in" side of the fuel line from tank to bottom of filter... didnt see anything come out but I did drop one end also adjusted choke and idle slightly seemed to help sat and ideled fine will find out on saturdays ride.


While doing this and tapping my front skid bolts I discovered a leaky front diff, checked all bolts all seemed tight but re tightened the allen head bolt anyone else have this issue on their rhino particulary 07... I still need to check the level before I ride it not sure how much had leaked out

Shawn it is the carb. pull it apart
and clean it out. blow air through
all the jets and ventures and it will
be sweet again.......

well it was purring like a kitten in the garage the real test will be on a ride

My 05 used to backfire and quit sometimes.esp when going up a long hill.I had to put a larger air intake to let it breathe a little better and keep the fuel filter changed..Also when you clean the air filter not to get carried away on the foam filter oil..

I have a UNI installed I need to clean it most likely will be done Sat morning(maybe)

what fuel filter you guys using?
ive never changed mine before, guess i should check it

My first one went out at 600 miles onn the trail. I've gotten bigger filters than stock and change them at 600 miles....no issues since the first time.

I used what was recommended to me... Fram G12. Works great.
