[QUOTE="carl1864, post: 1425921, member: 110915"] My girlfriend '03 KX100 ran like a champ, started like a champ, etc. Last time we were riding, there was a situation that may or may not have contributed to the problem. During a riding break, her fuel petcock got turned off, and she started riding with it off, until it died a short distance later. After turning it back on, the bike ran shortly, but then died again, and we have not been able to get it started since. I thought it was just a fouled plug, but we replaced the plug (used a br9es), and no luck. Pulled the plug and kicked it, and we are getting spark. Fuel is flowing through the petcock just fine. Tried starting fluid, tried pouring a little gas in the spark plug hole, can't even get so much as a sputter. Haven't looked at the air filter, but don't see how that could be it. Like I said, it went from running like a champ, to not running at all in an instant. Wondering if it could be a carb issue like its not getting any gas, but don't see why that would happen so suddenly, and why it wouldn't at least give a little sputter when I poured a little gas in the spark plug hole. I've used a mirror to look in the spark plug hole, it seems pretty dry in there, so its not flooded. I'm puzzled, any ideas what it could be, or what else I should check? [/QUOTE]
