Default 300ex problem

well i road my 300ex the day before yesterday, and it was snowing today so i decided i would ride, well i tried starting it up but the battery was weak so i tryed jump starting it. It would work but for some reason my quad wont start,i can rarley get it started and keep it started for liek 5 seconds than it will die... i kept it in the garage so im pretty sure no water went in the carb. I think its getting a good spark(havent bothered looking). Would u suggest a new spark plug, and i road it fine a couple days ago so no problem w/ my fuel. and ideas?
