Update: After sitting a day I saw some minor change in turning over the engine after switching to the ATF-F . Now on occasion it will turn over 2 to 3 times before it disengages and spins . As posted above it seems as though if I've got a bad sprag no matter what you put in the primary it can only help so much ,so I'll probably take it in . I ran out of warranty so this one will be on me . My goal at this time is now to get it running so I can ride it there instead of trailering it . I'm about 60 miles from my dealer so that this is a hassel . I still haven't been able to start it again so I've drained the tank, there was a fair amount of water but no visible particulates , drained the float bowl , removed the carb and took off the float bowl and blew carb cleaner through every little crack ,crevice and hole that I could find. There was some small amount of sediment in the float bowl . I pulled the plug , foung that it was gapped at 0.030 . I have seen recommendations ranging from 0.025 to 0.028 so I split the difference . Once I got it all back together first of all the starter wouldn't even spin,probably due to the fact that I ran down the battery and secondly it wouldn't pop over at all with the kick . I remembered reading on one of the threads about the thumb test which I believe is that you pull the plug , place your thumb over the hole and crank it over while openning the throttle like you were trying to start it and you should come away with some gas on it but I didn't . I suspect this means that something is seriously clogged and my next step would be a complete carb disassembly . I've never done anything like that before and would appreciate some advice. To begin with how do you disconnect the throttle cable ?
