    hard starting

    I am having trouble with "cold" starts if my quad sits long enough for it to cool, it will not want to start right away. It has new plugs and fresh oil, maybe 4-5 hours ride time on the oil. It usually will take a few times of running the starter and then let it sit for 5 minutes and then it will start. It almost seems like it has a air or vacuum leak. It is a '02 blaze with all the ATK 450 reliability upgrade on it. Is there someone in socal that can run a diagnostic on it?:

    It can be as simple as retuning with a D&M kit. Have you done a throttle recal any time recently? Also, how cold is cold? My quads hesitate for twice every time its cold down here, 30 degrees, but ALWAYS start up and stay running on the 3rd time. Weird but its a routine with them.

    no i have not done the recal. I just change the battery and spark plug. "cold" is basicly when it has been sitting for a week low temp is maybe 45 deg.
