I took my dunerunner mudding the other day and ran through some water and what not. So i shut it down after doing al of that and now kt will not start to save my life. Its got compression. It sure smells like its getting fuel and its got spark. Anyone got some tips or ideas.

Has it got a kill switch?
Wet maybe?

Give it a squirt of starter fluid through the air filter and if it starts you can tune it from there.
a it wont even start using starting fluid. When i test spark it seems to have spark but i havent tried putting a new plug in it yet so i will probably try that

A new plug is always a good idea
How is the compression?
Can you lift the car by the pull start without the motor turning over?
