Got my M400 back form overseas after a year in storage, filled the tank, hooked up the tender. She won't fire up. She cranks but doesn't kick. She's carb'd. I've done a couple throttle twists. Before packing her up, I had to run her dry.
What am I missing? Do I need to squirt fuel directly into the carb? Where can I look?
Check the fuel filter.
You have to use Japanese gas. American gas will just clog the fuel lines.
Can I just splash some gas into the filter?

I'd check to see if there is fuel in the bowls.
Loosen the drain screws to find out.
If yes...you could try a squirt of gas or ether to see if it will fire.
If no...you need to find the blockage/restriction.
BTW...how's tricks?
