I purchased my Dad a used 2002 Honda Rancher 350. The machine had 52 hours when purchased. We put about 3 hours on it around the house before he loaded it up and took it home with him. Before he left, we started the machine and it ran fine. He traveled about 4.5 hours to his house and attempted to start it up to unload it. He called to tell me it would not start. He said he may have depressed the throttle when he turned the engine over. For the past couple of nights he has tried to start it to no avail. We don't have any experience with 4 wheelers, so any ideas? Hopefully it has just fouled the plugs????
