Hey got a friend who brought their 93 Trx 90cc quad over. We are trying to help them repair it. The background on it is:
It worked fine until about a month ago. It has always been maintained & taken care of. It was used as a pit bike for his boy & of course was his first ATV when he was little. The boy rode it to get his trophy & when he went to fire it up nothing, & it never fired up since.
I haven't got into it yet but wanted to ask you guys where I should start since the 90cc ATV is different from my 400ex? It is a pull start. He pulled the quad out of the truck & we pushed it into the garage. I had his boy attempt to start it. I thought just maybe it was the plunger in the top end getting stuck like mine was. Anyways it tried to start & then it started but died immediately (only that one time). He has changed the stator because he said he was not getting fire. It is getting fire now. So due to the age & it being a pull start where should I start troubleshooting on this thing? I thought that maybe the ride over to our place or the bounce when he pulled it out of the truck may have helped undo or helped it some way to start because he could not get it to even start like it did in our garage. Any advice would be great.
Anyone know about common problems with these little quads? I'll be getting a book this evening on it to help me out. Also it felt like it was getting good compression when I pulled the plug out. It is old but he has taken care of it. Could use any help I could get on this one!!!! Thanks
