Have a 2009 Suzuki kingquad LT 400 I left gas in the tank for at least 2 months without starting. It only runs great with choke on? Dies with choke off. Ho do I fix this problem and where do I start first? Somebody help please? Thanks!

Clean the fuel tank, fuel hose and fuel valve.

SOURCE: won't start without starter fluid

seems like the carb wants to be primed, its fuel thirsty, so after sitting around for a while, turn the fuel valve on and full twist the throttle a bunch of times before you try to start it

SOURCE: My 2006 Suzuki Ozark has been in the garage &

first i would replace the gas and drain float bowl ,then check flow at petcock if that doesn't do it pull carb. clean the jet's and transfer port's and replace the spark plug{s}

SOURCE: drz 400 sm starts but i cant give it any gas or it dies

Can you slowly increase the revs? It sounds like an accelerator pump or debris in the carb.

Even though you probably don't have that many miles on the bike, or if you do have a lot riding time on it, it sounds to me like you need a valve adjustment. That's a high reving bike for that engine that works pretty hard so you might have 1 - 3 loose valves.
