I've had this happen a few times... I've noticed that when i've gotten the 4 wheeler at an extreme angle, not even extreme really. but maybe a 45 degree angle, both sideways and front to back.. if it dies or i killed it, then i cannot get it started until i get it back on level ground. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this and if there's a device that keeps it from starting or not if past a certain angle? It happened to me when i was nose down and to the right once. wouldnt start until i leveled it out. and again after laying it over sideways then uprighting it where the front was up and high on left maybe 20 degrees. i cranked and cranked that day and it wouldnt start... thought my battery was going to die. i have a photo of how the 4 wheeler was sitting when it wouldnt start. i'll attach it. it's a ridiculous spot where i laid it over, some hard pack ruts i tried to straddle, left wheel went into right rut, right front climbed the bank and it dumped over. embarassing spot.. all i knew was i was on the ground and here comes the kodiak over on me. I winched it upright first, .. as i had hurt my leg and had to get it flipped back over ..anyway...it wouldn't start right there in that pic. i then winched it up and onto more level ground and it cranked right up. just makes me think it has some kind of device on it somewhere. fyi i had full tank of gas.
added another pic which is after i kicked myself out from under it but before i flipped it upright. was hot, dry, and some hard *** ground where i got dumped at. just not that steep of an angle.... so trying to figure that out.
