King quad 2006 700 FI starting issue

Good aftrenoon

Looking for assistance or hint in how to resolve the issue I started to encounter a few months back

I do have issue when starting cold (and I do not mean because it is minus 1). Recently once the Quad has not ran for 24 hours, it is always hard to start. Lately ÙI started to remove the air filter and sprayed a thin mist of gas at which point the engine starts with no hiccups. Thru start and stop for the reminder of the day, no problem at all

the dealer tells me that it is probably an issue with the engine and that should have valves rechrome. Compression tests are within standard, no problem at all with the battery, the is no evidence of oil comsumtion (either thru leak or burning). I purchased new and have been very rigorous on maintenance .

Any hint as to what else I can check at this time:confused:

Many regards

from quebec, Canada

Valves rechrome??? I think you have a classic case of a dealer trying to feed you a big spoonful of B.S. Valve adjustment maybe. I do know that your battery can be a problem when starting fuel injected ATVs. If it isn't fully charged, it won't start because there isn't enough power to run the FI. If you manually add fuel, this would get the motor started and once running the alternator will produce enough power to run the ATV. I think that your problem is that once it has sat for a day, the battery loses enough of a charge to make starting difficult. I would try putting the battery on a trickle charger overnight and see of you still have the problem. If this helps, but the battery won't hold a charge on its own, then you may just need a new battery.
