Make sure that the gas tank vent line is not pinched, pull the gas cap and then give it a try.

yea, and dont start it repeatedly and shut it off, that creates a lot of moisture in the tank and the motor..remember you exhaust runs right under the tank, heats up the fuel a bit then it cools, and boom, water in your tank..

I would think about changing the plugs. They could be due depending on how many times you started it and shut it off right away. I like to change mine every 1000 miles to keep my performance top notch.

What is a good safe method if I need to start it in the garage from time to time to guarantee no plug fouling?

I just dont start mine until im going riding..last time my sled was started was April. But if you have to start it, let it fully warm up, not just until the red light goes off..and if you can get the #*$&@ end up in the air so you can give it some juice would probably help too..In the past when I needed to start mine because I did something, the sled was definitely doing a lap or two around the yard. to get everything up to temp and moisture out of the motor..
