Start Issues, Kick Start Kicks Back

Hello,

My father’s 1997 ish Fourtrax 250 is having starter issues. He has had trouble with the electric starter and has purchased good used components for the starter mechanism.

He has been using the kick start and he noticed that it kicks back. We think that the timing is too advanced and maybe this is what caused the electric start to fail?

Is there any way to set the timing on a Froutrax so it doesn’t kick back on the kick start or the electric start?

The quad does start up fine and run fine.
