If turned over by starter for prolonged time it will backfire out exhaust but still no fire up and run. Please help with this annoying problem.

So mine was in parts when I got it. I'm sure its missing parts but idk. I got it together and it will start great will pull start and no battery, but put a battery on it and use the starter, it won't start at all just turn over and back fire like yours. Can't figure it out

I suspect you would have been beter jumping into this thread https://atvconnection.com/forums/hon...g-problem.html rather than an unresolved 13 year old one. Check if you too are getting the "only sparks when I take my finger off the start button" syndrome like the 450 owner.
