i dont know what is wrong with my kodiak it just wont start. i went through some water a while back and the belts started slipping, but i got that fixed and i ran it the next day and everything seemed fine. i havent rode it or started it in about two weeks because i have been busy and then i go to ride it and it wont start. everything sounds right but it just wont turn over. i to the plastic covers of and there is this little tube comming our of the carburator that looks like it goes in something, but i couldnt find out where. i have no idea what is wrong and i am getting ready to sell it or trade it in. what is wrong?

I know that this sounds stupid...but check the kill switch. I have been sooooo upset and couldnt figure out what was wrong... hehe

I hope that it is as simple as that...I HOPE

This happens to me sometimes. I try to get it to turn over but it doesn't I turn the key and hit the start button so when its trying to crank over just hit the throttle and kepp doing it until its warmed up. hope this helps.

When you say it wont start do you mean when you press the start button it wont do anything at all? If so, besides the kill switch that was previously mentioned check the wiring under the seat on the left side. Move the wires around and see if you have a bad connection. I have had this happen to me just after deep water rides.
