Had it running again today. Had it tested for compression. All good. Then my uncle (mechanic) took the spark plug boot and screwed it back on. (it wasnt screwed on). So i started it up rode around turned it off. started right back up. Hour later. Cant start it.

thats odd. still soudns like a compression problem to me though. after it sits and cools off all the steel is shrinking back to it original size and letting gases get through.

thats your floats in your carb sticking same thing happend to me first turn the gas off then clean up your air filter and dry out your air box. the easyest way if they arnt stuck that bad is to shake the hell out of the quad just pick it up and drop it and rock it side to side untill you can turn the gas on and no gas comes out the back of the carb wait to put the air filter and the air box top back on untill after you do shake and test. shake the hell outta it untill you can turn the gas on with gas in the tank and not have gas come out the back of the carb. put a little little bit of 2 stroke oil in with the gas to lube the carb up so it doesnt happen again put it back together and wala fixxed it for me. if that fails take the carb off take the boul off the bottom of the carb [do it in a little pan or something so any little parts will just fall in there and not get lost] post again if you get lost during any of this or you can PM me.
