    Honda 4-wheeler

    I'm a Quad mech. And yes any of these other answers you've received could be accurate, but let me ask, Does this thing have any aftermarket parts like a Pipe or muffler? If it run's well on the chock, check the spark plug. If it's appears clean , then you need to rejet the carb. It's very...

    Timing

    Does the sidemount dist's have advance weight's under the point's floor, if they do I would check the total timing after they are fully advanced, rather than the initial timing. If they don't then none of this would apply. The total advance is where things get burned up.

    8N POINTS

    Since the first problem was about spark, let me mention one small observation I've made. On 6v systems if the batt. is not fully charged and cranking slowwwwwwwwwly, somtimes ignition doesn't always fire until you just let up on the starter switch. The 9volt batteries help this low volt problem...
