You guys seem to know everything else, so I'll throw this out there.
2005 Honda Rincon that we keep at our cabin.
The battery was dead, so my dad and brother-in-law were trying to jump start it from the truck battery.
It would start, but not stay running, as it is sometimes hard to get it going.
They jumped it a few times, tried to get it going, die, repeat.
Apparently, they inadvertently switched the cables the last time they tried. They herd a pop when they tried to start it. Now it won't do anything.
I would really like to try to fix this myself, but I have no idea where to start.
Now, it does have a pull start also. We have not tried it. Is there a chance that it might run via that, or probably not?
Also, if it could be a several different things, that would probably be beyond my "want to tackle" level, and we'll take it to a shop.
Thanks!
