my park brake was seized up and in the engaged position. was able to hit it with a hammer and move it enough that it revs now. next thing is to get some new front bearings and get the front end in order

My spring isn't broken but thats not to say it isn't worn out either. I talked to the guy I bought my 350 from and he said he always had trouble with the reverse switch. Not sure what though.

Try unplugging your park brake first, then see about grounding out the reverse switch, I read about guys having these problems pretty common. I haven't gotten around to doing anymore work on mine yet.

Could it maybe be something to do with the reverse switch or park brake causing the rev limiter to kick in?

Thats what we thought as well, when we align the T with the mark on the case on the bottom of the motor, the top alignment is about 1/2 a tooth off of TDC, not sure if that is enough to throw it off that much. Do these bikes need a battery to run? Right now I have no battery on it.

I have the filter housing off and it is spitting it out there, I guess it is backfiring when it does that.

My 96 350 does not rev up, hit the throttle and it starts to backfire and spit gas out the carb. Not sure what it could be. I cleaned the carb out real good because before it would just stall out when you touched the throttle or turned off the choke. Now it stays running but just won't rev up...

Good to know, thank you.

I just purchased a 96 Wolverine, just wondering how I know if it is a 450 or 350? I got it for $100 cause it doesn't run properly. Just not sure if it is a 350 or 450, also wondering when the wolverine was first made and if it was 350/450 from the start?
