To narrow down your problem, you can open up the ebox and disconnect the red lead that goes to the starter and then touch it to the other red lead that goes to the battery. This will bypass everything and you should get spark. If you don't I would say its the stator.

Hey, What are your thoughts on that kevlar? Where did you get it? I got a 550 project and need to find which reinforcement would work best. Thanks

Does your intake suck in air or blow it out? If it does, than it could be in your fuel lines. My prob was that the reeds were bent and in pretty bad shape. Let me know if this helps

Thanks! Thanks! Thats what I was hoping it was.

What does it mean if the air is blowing back at me?

So if there is zero vacuum, is that the most likely issue? Is it an easy job or is it better to take it to a shop?

Can you check the vacuum with the reed cage off or does it have to be there to get suction? Could it still be the crank seals even if it sounds like its about to start. Do you have to disassemble the entire engine to get to the crank seals?

I took off the carb and found that I don't have any suction at the intake. The spark plugs always have a lot of fuel on them. The top compression is good and the engine is trying to start. Would this mean that the reeds are bad?? Or would it be something else such as a seal or something...

Absolutely no fuel is going into the carbs. I just rebuilt it with all new gaskets, springs, filter and diaphram. What are some solutions to get it to send fuel again.?

Thank you!! My email is iwantborderpatrolnow71@gmail.com Thanks!!

I need a diagram of how to correctly hook up the cdi in the ebox. I think I might be missing a ground wire. Thanks!!

So I think I got it, finally!! Lol. The start stop switch isnt working and the carb isnt sending fuel to the engine. I am gonna take the switch apart and try to fix the spring. I also got a carb kit and im gonna rebuild it this week. Fingers crossed!!

Yep tried starting fluid, wd 40 and a lighter to the plugs, and a small bit of acetone. I'm gonna clean out the bottom of the engine with some power tune and gumout to get out sludge that built up from not being able to get it started. I'm also going to rebuild the carb. What should the bottom...

I really wish it was the kill switch, it would save so much headache. Lol

I also put a little gas into the cylinders just to see if it start for a second and no go.
