- Check the fuel line for any leaks or obstructions.
- Make sure the fuel petcock is turned to the "ON" position.
2. Check the spark plug:
- Remove the spark plug and check it for any damage or fouling.
- Replace the spark plug if necessary.
3. Check the air filter:
- Make sure the air filter is clean and free of any obstructions.
- Replace the air filter if necessary.
4. Check the battery:
- Make sure the battery is fully charged and has enough voltage.
- Check the battery terminals for any corrosion or loose connections.
- Clean the battery terminals if necessary.
5. Check the starter:
- Try to start the ATV using the electric starter.
- If the starter does not engage, check the starter relay and solenoid for any issues.
6. Check the carburetor:
- Make sure the carburetor is properly adjusted and clean.
- Check the float bowl for any dirt or debris.
- Clean the carburetor if necessary.
7. Check the ignition timing:

8. Check the compression:
- Perform a compression test to check the engine's compression.
