another 350x that wont start

[jmoe816]

I was riding it the other day, and all seemed well except for a little stutters here and there. After shutting it off, i tried to start it again later that evening and it wouldnt start. i thought it was flooded, but now, several days later, it still wont start. I checked the spark plug, its working. I check to make sure it waqs getting fuel, it is. The decompression valve seems to be moving with the kick starter.

The kick starter was kinda sticking on kicks, but now it seems almost loose. Weird thing is that the motor doesnt even seem to turn over anymore on kick. Any ideas? Thanks again!

pull the right side cover off , you'll find your problems.

I was reading somewhere on here about a gear that goes bad somewhere in there? Anything special I should be looking for?

Wish me luck, I'll be working on my 3-wheeler and dune buggy tomorrow evening. a long night of wrench turning and beer drinking. I hope I get my trike running again.

Hay buddy to fully check if it is truely flooded which is very possible... take the spark plug out and pull that baby over a few times and let the compression shoot out of the spark plug hole do it for like 3 minutes straight and then put a new spark plug in and there you go i bet it will start.... :naughty: good luck man!

Tried but still no luck. Thanks though! Oh well, I didnt have time to take the case cover off last night to look, I will do that soon and hopefully find out whats wrong with this thing...I want to ride!
