My 1996 Honda Foreman Won't Start

The 1996 Honda Foreman is an All-Terrain Vehicle (ATV) that is designed for back roads and wilderness. If your Honda Foreman will not start while you are out in the wilderness, you can get it started by using a manual starting procedure. This also works on cars and will get the motor to turn over. You don't have to be an ATV tech to get your Foreman to turn over. You can do this yourself with little hassle.

Instructions

    • 1

      Turn the ignition to the "On" position.

    • 2

      Tie a rope to the front of the Foreman and then have another ATV or some friends pull the rope. This will get the ATV rolling. If you can get it to roll down a small hill, this would work better.

    • 3

      Push the clutch in while the Foreman is rolling and then shift the transmission to second gear.

    • 4

      Release your clutch while the Honda is rolling. Wait for the engine to engage and start to turn over.

    • 5

      Allow the engine to run.
