Ok I just tried starting it, haven't done anything but drained a bit of the gas.
It's starting to putter a little bit, not sure what is though, seems as if maybe faster spin could do it?
EDIT: when I push the throttle in while the starter is on the airfilter makes wheezing sounds. It's as if the throttle opens a passage to the airfilter and the carb or engine has nothing to grab so it's wheezing.

Yeah I understand, my brother said the same thing. I don't have anybody really right now no. I can only wait to go to my Dad's and his friend has a garage and knows this stuff.

I think that will be your best bet.
Did you ever say what kinda deal you got$? They are solid machines, and when you get used to it (the cold starting and stuff), you'll look back and laugh at this stuff you're having now, hehe.

haha yeah, maybe when I'm an MX racer it'll be a highlight of my past...:P
Well I payed 2,300$ The guy had it for 3,000$ bike alone but needed it sold for his schooling. Met the guy very nice, about 18-19 years old. Was going for welding degree.
I got him down to 2,300$ with a helmet and trailer. He had it stored for like 4 months and hadn't rode it very much last year. Said the previous owner to him is why the cracks in fenders, which is why he shaved fronts to look better. Back still have couple cracks. Fenders also not so bright because I guess previous owner also left in sun.
Never came with a bumper, he put 300$ into that.
This guy new what he was doing also, worked at his dad's garage.
All other 400ex's look alot more in canada, for the same year or so. But in the states it's like '04-'06 for under 3,000$
Overall I felt I got a very good deal, just as soon as it starts lol.
