Hey Guys, I'm in need of your help, yesterday I went to my local OHV park and at the end of the day I decided to give a mud hole one last run, I came down pretty hard and the engine just die. Mud/water went over the whole engine bay and now the engine wont start. The engine turns but sound like there is no combustion or spark. I'm thinking something electric but can't pin point! I can keep the starter going but it just turns and turns.
Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated!!! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

... I came down pretty hard and the engine just die. It's possible that a wire came loose or a connector came apart. Have you checked for any codes from the ECU?

1. Did you try any of the things i suggested? 2. I thought you were going to post a video or sound of the engine cranking 3. Did you pre order your copy of the new Anthrax CD?

Yeah, I checked all electrical connection and everything looks good. I replace the part that sits above the air intake where all the connectors go to and nothing happens still. I read on other forums that when u crank shaft sensor goes bad engine will turn but won't start, do u guys think that might be the problem here?

Carlos,
It's simple,
Fuel, air, compression, spark.
Narrow down which of those you have, or have not, before you start replacing parts randomly.

So I got spark coming out of all 3 coils, I got gas too... running out of ideas why it wont start! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> Can any one confirm if the crank shaft was defective would it still start? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

Spark at plug should be bright and blue. How do you know you're getting fuel - wet plugs? Not only spark, fuel, air, compression, but timing also.

Wouldn't a broken timing belt break other things if he tries to start it and it turns the engine? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />
