Im having a problem with my 2001 yamaha warrior. i just replaced the stator because my old one was shot. im trying to start my quad up but it wont turn over. it sounds like its trying to, but it sounds like the engine isnt getting any gas. fuel is on and carb is cleaned. what could my problem be? anythings i should check?

thanks so much
jeff

 

make sure your getting fuel into the carb, are you sure your getting spark? Use a test light or a DVOM and check the power out of the stator, out of the coil. etc.

 

how do i check the power out of the stator and coil? use a test light? what you mean? im kinda confused

 

I think you should pull the plug first and see if it has spark

 

i just pulled the spark plug and cleaned it. still not goin. any other suggestions? im almost positive its not getting gas cuz it sounds like its dry. but the gas is flowing to the carb so idk what else to do.

 

pull the plug, keep it connected to the wire, hold it to metal and crank it over, look for a spark. Next, put the plug in, disconnect the wire and crank it over a while, then pull the plug. See if its wet with gas or not.

 

i pulled the spark plug and kept it connected to the wire. i didnt see any sparks. also the spark plug was dry after i put it in and cranked it a few times. so im guessing i need a new spark plug and i def have a problem with my carb.

 

ok nvm. i forgot to touch the spark plug to metal. i just tried it again. i got spark, but the plug was still dry.

 

see if the fuel is getting into the bowl of the carb, take the fuel line off and open the petcock for the gas

 

im gonna take everything off and look at it today. im confused as to what you want me to do. do you have aim or something?
