Been having problems with my 350 not starting. What appears to be happening is that it is killing spark plugs. Has anyone had this happen before?
Thanks

Still working on this problem. Is it true that if fuel is not being pushed through the line that there is no spark? When all this started I thought it was the fuel filter in the tank, did help. I then changed the fuel pump. Got worse then, won't even run. Spark plug had no spark, new plug bike ran for a bit.
Pulled the new fuel pump out, primed it, put it back in, bike ran for a short time, now won't run again.
Possible, new fuel pump is not working properly?
Hoping someone has had something similar going on?

Here is the other strange/coincidental part. I swapped my battery with the battery out of my sons bike when trying to make things work. My son went riding, with my old battery and 7 laps in, bike quits. won't run. spark plug is dead. Put in a new plug, it has spark, new battery and his bike won't run now either.

Your battery may have internal short. Replace it with a new LI unit.
Or at least have it load tested as these OEM batteries only last a short time. The newer LI will last much longer.

Disconnect the battery, then hit the start button. You'll hear a click, then you're pretty much good to hook it back up with a fresh start.
