My Blaster was working well when we put it up. Went to ride today and when
choke is on runs great. Turn choke off and 4 wheeler dies as though it's not

I aquired a Yamaha 350 warrior and want to idnetify the year.  I have the

a good place to get a service manual?

I used a Kreem gas tank restoration kit on my Yamaha XS650.  Seemed to work
ok.  But how do I get rid of the chemicals?  I have a bucket (polyethylene)
full of about 3 gallons of the "prep A" fluid.  I think it is muriatic acid.
