No Start - Compression?

gzed · 03-15-2016, 04:34 PM

Hi All,

My 2006 GZ250 was having some issues starting before I winterized it. This weekend I put a fully charged battery and everything sounds to be in order but the bike does not start, even after some TLC.

The engine turns and turns with no results.

Cleaned the carb
Verified the air filter is clean
Verified the carb is getting gas from the tank
Put in a new spark plug, confirmed it is sparking

Compression is the only thing I can think of, but based on the sound of when it tries to start it has compression, as well as I can feel the pressure coming out of the exhaust.

Is there anything you guys and gals can think of that I should also check? Is there any way to test if the timing is off? Any advice is appreciated, thank you in advance.
