My blaster seems f*cked!!
It is 2003 and has a B1 toomey pipe and set, and I was on it in the morning but then when I went to go on it after lunch it wouldn't start. It would kinda tick over wen bump started but wen tried putting the throttle on it would make a bogging noise and then shortly cut out. After a few kick starts a puff of white / grey smoke came out?!

What is wrong with it, and how do I fix it? Thanks Jamie
 
Well your blaster needs three things to run. Compression, spark, and fuel. take out your spark plug. Is it wet? If so then you obviously dont have a fuel problem. Next check for spark. Put the plug on something that is metal to ground it and kick it over. Do you see a nice blueish spark? Third to check is compression. Put the plug back in and if you have a compression checker then fine but if not put it in 1st gear. Can you easily push the wheels over? The fact that you need to driftstart it could be because the plug is maybe dirty or your looosing compression or possibly your stator is on its way out and it needs to be turned over faster to generate spark. Good Luck.

Thanks for the help :) I have replaced the plug as the old one was wet, but the problem still persists. I have spoken to friends with quads and motorbikes and they seem to think it might be flooded! Might they be right, how would I cure that?

Thanks
