Ok thanks and sorry bout that..

 

No need to apoligize, Good luck getting it fixed. =]

 

the fuel may be old and varnished, drain the fuel and top off with fresh fuel, its the cheapest and easiest way
to determine if this is the problem before taking expensive measures.

Gassrx is good when it comes to fuel problems, but I don't think that is your problem here. Most of your off breed atv's are coppied after the big name brands. I have seen quite a few that have a safety switch on the throttle lever that is coppied after the banshee. They are designed so that if your throttle sticks open and you let of the throttle lever, the lever hits the switch and kills the ignition. I think this is why it dies on you when you push on the throttle. Check the switch inside the throttle mechanism on the handlebars, and also the wiring going to it. Most of them have a small electrical box that looks similar to a relay that controls this and sends the signal to your cdi box. Don't overlook any of these components.

 

Any luck with it ice? Let us know how things are going with it.
