Getting my JCL out after winter storage. StaBIL was added to fuel.
Battery is good; it just won't turn over.
Thoughts?

Any other electricals? (Lights? Gauges? Horn?) If no, don't know JCL electrical but I'd be looking at a main fuse somewhere, or a battery cable loose or corroded to the point of no contact.

Is it cranking at all or cranking but not starting? Did you pull fuel line off and crack to see if gas is pumping? You may have air in gas line, take gas cap loose and pullnline and put back on.

Now it does take awhile to start one that hasn't been started for awhile because of vaccum, I would hook your jumper cable from car to scooter, don't start car, start scooter let it crank several time and stop, and repeat.

There is a vacuum actuated valve on the bottom of the fuel tank,,, and there should be a small diameter vacuum line coming off of the intake manifold going to the fuel tap/ valve,, my guess is that line is cracked and not pulling enough vacuum to open the fuel valve,,,
