I was just in replacing the brake caliper and master cylinder because they quit working. Once I was done I tried starting the machine and it will fire and quit immediately. It’s weird, with the key on or off it will still slightly fire but not go. Seems like electrical. I’ve tried a bunch of stuff, unplugged tether, unplugged kill switch. I have spark, replaced plugs. Anyone have any ideas?

Fuel pump electrical connection?

Was it running before you did the brake work? If so, then you probably moved something electrical just enough to make a bad connection.

put a new set of plugs in it and try it before you make this more complicated than it needs to be. i've had this issue and was baffled by it as well....replaced plugs and fired right up. (had 100 pulls into it before i changed them, fired first pull after).
