hey guys i decided to wash my quad today (beacuse i went for a trail ride the day befor so it was quite dirty) so i drive it to the front of the house, and powerwash it. so i try to start it up and it turns over but never fires. so i figer ill let it sit for a while and try again. so two hours later i go over and try to start it, still it just turns over and never starts. i dont have the right plug wrench right now so i take the plug boot off and put a plug in it and i got spark. theres gas in it, the kill switch isnt on. i have no idea what to do, please help. sorry for the long post.

did you get a bunch of water in the airbox?

make sure your plug boot is dry inside, squirt a little starting fluid in the carb, and give it another try.

Check the relay down by the battery, on the left side, it has a rubber boot around it, blow it out with air and dry it out. Mine did that and that’s what it was.
