ok so here it is. i had my fourwheeelr parked all winter in the garage. Changed the oil, cleaned the air filter and put in a new battery. It didnt come with the tool for the sparkplug cause bought it used. But it was starting so i just ran it. I rode it for one night. The next morning my buddy was riding it and he wheelied it and it came up and skidded the back bar. he must have stalled it out. So he tried starting it back up and it wouldnt run right.
I found a tool and changed the spark plug. it was completly black. i hop on and start it up. Now it just sputters and backfires a bunch. It wont stay idling either. It will stay on if you keep giving it gas but wont just idle like normal. Anyone know what could be wrong.
Someone suggested it may be the old gas might have moisture in it. But it ran fine the first night.
Needless to say i was pretty pissed and didnt get to ride all weekend..
anyway, any help or advice is appreciated. i dont know jack about fourstrokes. But i'm here to learn.
