Hello All. I am new to quadding. Never owed or really drove one before.
So I just bought a 1999 Bombardier Traxter 500. I was told it didn’t start and the starter was the problem. So I bought a new starter and installed it. Found out the hard way. Lol. Oil needed to be changed, as now most of it was on the ground. So now starter is changed. And still it sounds the same. It only turns overs or engages sometime like something is missing. Or grinding teeth. Missing where they want to go. Not sure I’m a welder not a mechanic but it doesn’t sound right when it misses teeth. It has lots of gas. It is getting air and is getting spark. I also fixed the pull start. Won’t start with the pull start either. When pulling the pull starter it seems like the motor is binding maybe. It’s really hard to pull. It acts like it want to start just something is missing. Can anyone help?
