1982 Honda ATC200 Not Getting Gas to plug
I have a 1982 Honda 200ATC 3-Wheeler - had it for years - every year after sitting up through the spring and summer I get it out, clean it up, and hit the woods.
This time it has set up for two years - and - this time it's not as easy to get going
I have disassembled the carburetor, cleaned it thoroughly, as I always do, put it back together and it won't start
It's getting fire, the air filter is clean, I have new gas, and a new plug
I can spray some starter fluid into the plug hole and it will crank for a couple of seconds - looking at the plug and judging by the way acting, It doesn't look like it's getting any gas
I have double checked the carburetor - the float's not stuck, it is assembled correctly, the pilot valve is set at 1 1/2 turns out and the idle screw is set at 2 1/2 turns out
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated
Thanks

The funny thing is that it's almost something simple. Check the throttle needle to see if it's not detached from the cable, check the gas line to see if it's clogged by a bug or something.Even try rigging up a tank to by bass the original.It' all about elimination. Check to make sure the choke is working properly.You'll get it with a little patience and perserverance. Keep me updated.
