today i went riding and acciedently rolled in to a creek. i cut off motor before went under. even though the whole thing never went under completely, the air box is dry and the exhaust had some water in it. when i turn key on and try to start the motor or should i say the starter just makes a clicking sound. soesn't even turn over. talked to guys at dealer ship and they think there sould be something wrong i do to. just trying to see if you guys have any sugestions. thanks

maybe take the carb off and make sure theres no water in it. and maybe check all the electrical things and clean them. i dont really know much else, ive never rolled my wheeler into a creek before:eek:

i would remove the spark plug then try to turn it over theres probly water in the cylinder.i would also change the oil twice.

i went off a cliff when i used to trail ride my 300 and sunk it, change your oil like 4 times! and put new gas in it and keep replacing the plug often

why replace the plug
i am now haveing trouble with battery holding charge would that have anything with the plug, or would you have any advise on where to start looking to fix this shortage problem. i don't think its the battery because i jumped it off and it holds charge for a while. thanks any one let me know somehting please
