Default Helppp simple question

Ok I've got an 06 raptor 700 I've got everything this thing needs to start I've checked and checked everything but everyone tells me I've got a little bit of a weak spark but the weird thing is that when I go to turn it over it acts normal for a cpl seconds then starts turning over really fast now is it possible that whatever is causing my weak spark can cause the motor to turn over faster ?

It sounds more like you have lost compression than the spark. Do a compression test.

Ok so the motor is turning over faster cuz it's trying to fire cuz if I hit the throttle it gets faster and faster like it's trying harder and harder to actually start and about every fourth crank it pops and tries to fire but won't

If the spark is the issue, have you changed out the plug? Is it dirty and fouled up or is it clean? Have you put a spark plug tester on it? I use the kind that lights up between the wire and the plug to ensure you are getting ignition to the spark plug.
