I just picked up my 07 attack from a dealer service, once I arrived at home it would not start, it popped once then it wouldn't fire! Dealer is clossed today and I'll be out of town all next week, so a return trip to the dealer is a week away, anyone have any ideas what the problem could be? Thanks

If you fill in your profile it will help some in answering your question. Don't know your location , so I will throw some guess's out. Is it very cold where your located? The fuel pump relay on my 06 WAS prone to freezing up in extreme temps. Did you let it warm up sufficiently when you loaded it at the dealer? Could have fouled the plugs if it didn't warm up enough before shutting it off. I have had my Attak flood on a couple of occasions. Had to hold the throttle wide open to get it to start. Does it have fresh fuel? Mine seems sensitive to fuel condition. I attempted to start it a couple weeks ago and it sputtered some. Filled the tank with fresh fuel and it fired right up! Firs time I have had an issue of any kind since storing my toy's using Seafoam. Hope this gives you a couple of ideas on where to start looking.

Very well could be plugs. Before we say that, what did you have done at the dealer? Often, the dealer will quickly start and stop a machine and this will foul the plugs if not allowed to heat fully before shutting down.

do these sleds foul plugs real easy? ive read a few things saying that they get fouled alot. im wondering if i should get new plugs now. i was told as long as the red light goes out on the dash then you can drive it.

as long as you let the machien warm up it should not foul plugs. I hade over 3000 miles on my original plugs. I just changed them this fall and they still looked fine.

if I can get it started and run it to clean it up would I still need to change the plugs? I'd hate to have any problems in the middle of winter, the sled has 600 miles

When staring your sled, turn the key to on and wait a few seconds until the fuel pump stops priming, then turn the key to start.

I tried to start it again this am. Now there is no power at all, the gauge wouldn't light up and the fuel pump did not cycle, I put the jump box to it and still nothing? Looks like she'll need a return trip to the dealer. Has anyone seen any situations like this? Should this be covered under waranty ar shop warranty for that matter, I dropped it of running a 400$$ repair bill now nothing!
