SOURCE: 91 yamaha fzr engine turns but wont start

the floats in the carb are stuck. you can try lightly tapping on the carb with a screwdriver that should do the trick.

SOURCE: I have a 2007 Yamaha Grizzly 660. It was running

It sounds like you got some corrosion going on, on the ground side. I would start with the battery cables first and see if they need cleaned up, then go to the connectors and unplug them and clean if necessary and put die-electrical grease in the sockets of the connectors before plugging them back in. I am assuming that the shifter is electrically assisted if there are problems going on with it as well...this is what makes me believe that it is a bad ground due to setting maybe in a damp inviroment.

Testimonial: "Great feedback and it has given me a different avenue to look that I had not thought of. The response was quick and not only did ?lylerwh? provide the direction to look he furthered explained what his decision was based on. Thanks "

You may be having trouble with a sticking intake valve. Remove the valve cover and spray some WD-40 onto the valve and spring. Try to operate the valve with your fingers to work it loose. Once the engine starts running, it should improve. You may need to change the oil. Good luck.

2004 pontiac aztek won't start

I would not think starter , maybe park neutral switch > It's a safety switch that won't let the vehicle start if in gear . If it doesn't start again try an put in into neutral an see if it starts . But to make sure starter is not bad do a starter circuit voltage drop test . Starter Voltage Drop

the ignition cant fail from sitting, perhaps the kill switch has corrroded, always put a spark plug in and ground it to the head when checking for spark , also check with a new spark plug
