I haven't had my TBoss running in over three months (what a doo doo head, I use to start it at least one a week). Anyway, she's all gassed up, the battery's charged, and she's turning over like a charm just can't get it to crank. Isn't there some trick where I open up the air box and spray something in to help tha carb breathe?

 

First, is the carb getting the fuel? Second, is it flooded or is there a
heavy smell of gas in the air? Check your plug, if its fuel soaked then
its probably flooded. If you have left the fuel petcock turned on then
the crank could be flooded. That happened to mine once and I had
to remove the crank drain plug and drained about a 1/8 th cup of
gas out. It then started right up!

 

First check your plug for spark, if that has spark then spray son starting in the carb.

 

Thanks folks!! I smell gas, but not enought to make me thing it's flooded. I'll pull her apart and check the plug.

 

I always stick my thumb in her rectum! That gets her fired up! Oh! never mind. Your talking about a quad.

 

I have a suzuki that had the same problem as your trailboss, i cleaned out the carburator( the lines were clogged with gunk) and replaced the choke, and now it starts up great.

 

Did you drain the old gas? Gas can go bad over time to the point it won't start. If your float bowl is full of old gas it may not start. Drain all the old gas including what is in the carb float bowl. Change the plug and then load it with some fresh fuel and it will probably fire up.
