up is choke for starting....down to ride..............

check for spark by removing sparkplug and putting it back into the cap and touch it to the engine at the same time pullstart it and see if there is spark........

YES, that is VERY important, I think that is part of the fuel line, check for leaking gas, that can be EXTREMELY dangerous.

Re: Cobra S4 wont start

The sparkplug is circled in red, just pull off the rubber cap, then get a wrench and unscrew it.

and that pipe circled in red, is that supposed to be connected to something? its just tied to the frame with those black slip-ties. and i dont know if its supposed to stay there or be connected to something. its a plastic black tube, with that enlongated head piece on it.
