400ex wont start

[Jgoad2]

Today I moved my quad out of my garage and it started up and i moved it about an hour later i was gonna load it up and go ride and it wouldn't start. It just kept cranking and cranking and no start. I checked the plug- good. I took the carb of thinking maybe something was stuck or gunked up it was good. Its gettin fuel. It started for a few seconds then it died and never started back up again. Any ideas?

has it been running fine before this? I would pull out your spark plug and make sure it just isnt fouled out. If it was only running for a short amount of time before you let it sit for an hour its possible that the engine was still cold and your just flooded. Good luck!

It may sound stupid but check your kill switch. Only reason I ask is because I did this yesterday and it literally took me like 10 minutes to figure that out, yes it was a dumbass move haha. Otherwise you might have flooded it, did you wait like a minute then try again?

thanks for the help guys, it wasn't the kill switch that was the 1st thing i checked when it wouldn't start (past experience also haha) Im gonna get a new plug and try that. And yes it was running fine before this.
