Hi

After some advice please. Our camper has sat over winter (I know this isn't ideal but with three small children, Christmas and birthdays it just happened) I charged up her battery and tried to start her yesterday. She's turning over no problem but won't start. I'm guessing it's either fuel or spark. The fuel gauge says it has a quarter tank. I took the air box and cover off the carbs and pushed the accelerator manually as I'm sure you can normally see fuel spraying into carb(?) but nothing happened. Where is the best place to start to eliminate causes?

Many thanks.

Maybe check there's a spark but it sounds like the fuel line has drained.
Take the air filter off & spray a little easy start into the intake & then try starting it. Once it's taken it should get the fuel back up the line.

Aye, same scenario as running out of fuel. small splash of fuel down carb throats, try to start (it should) and it will probably cough and die. Repeat until pump has caught up.
