Default 88 LT250 Won't Start
Bike ran fine when I bought it but now I can't start it. I notice there are 2 chokes on it. One choke lever on the handlebars and one pull out choke on the carb. How do these work together?

I have use to the recoil start as the starter shot.

Got spark, but I found the problem. There was crud in the fuel line, blocking the float needle.

Does the carb look original? Maybe something was from another model atv Doesn't make sense to me why there would be 2

The choke lever on the handlebar has a cable to the top part of the carb. The side of the carb body has a pull choke lever. Got me???
