No spark

I jus bought 03 trailblazer 400 off a guy. He blowed the head gasket on it so he installed a new one. But it wouldn’t start. So I got it an discovered water pump gasket had leaked an I suppose it leaked all the water out that’s why the head gasket blowed. So I fix that now I can’t get spark at all. I did get spark a few times but it not at all now. Now it’s leaking oil down inside the crank rope. So I’m lost I need help. An if anybody has a Manuel I can download id greatly appreciate it.

Bogging down at start

I recently just got my 2002 TB running again after 4 years. The only bad thing is that when I first start off, I have to take it easy in the beginning or else it bog down and almost dies. Once it gets a little speed, it runs just fine. It is just when I first start off, it needs a few seconds to get its power, which is a bad thing because this makes it hard to climb hills. Also starting up hill is almost impossible. I am going to replace some nasty oil, and also replace the fuel on/off/reserve valve. If you have anything else that you might think would be causing the problem, please let me know.

TB has sat for about 4 years

I have a 2002 TB. It was last rode in 2011 and I am trying to get it going again. Right now it wont start easily, it wont idle, and I have to mess with the choke to make it go fast or slow(depending on which I want to do). I have ordered a carb rebuild kit and a new gas valve(the one that turns the gas on off or to reserve). I am just wondering if any of you know what else might cause it to run crappy. TYIA

Too much oiling problem on my TB

I’ve got a 2001 TB that I bought new. I only get to run it on vacations now so it does have to sit six months in between trips. About a year ago, I noticed that it was leaving a oil spot under the carb.(Not gas). It would not start. I pulled the bowl and it had oil in it. I figured that the oiler mechanism was leaking oil and filling up the bowl. I was getting it ready for a trip today and I noticed it had no oil under the carb.It has stopped leaking under the carb. I went to start it and it just would not hit. I cleaned the plug and got it to bump, so I kept after the starter. When it finally started, it poured oily gas out the tail pipe so bad I had to use oil-sorb to get it up! I assume that my oiler is not functioning well. Is this an easy part to rebuild or buy new? It is a crucial adjustment to get it to oil properly? Any opinions will help.

Another non starter

Hello guys I was reading some other threads and no dice I have a 2000 Polaris trail blazer 250 the guy I bought it from had said it sat for a year and of course its not running so the first thing I did was test spark checkmate it had a nice blue spark I cleaned out the old gas from the tank cleaned the carb it turns over but won’t start so I tried taking the carb out of the engine intake and pull start it to remove the gas this time I pulled it it felt like it started for a sec but then nothing then I tried once more and it backfired so anyone got aNY ideas anything would help

Rear Axel

Went out riding past weekend and noticed my sons rear axel looked bent. The left rear whobbles slightly. I also noticed that the same tire and rim looked cambered inward. I’m assuming it’s the axel or maybe something else? Can anyone help me. He was riding a 00 trailblazer

secondary clutch

My secondary has some pitted spots almost looks like maybe a rock or metal piece got in there and did some damage or something. My question is…Would this be fine to run still and what should I do to maybe fix this if not?
