Check kill switch, try new gas, check spark, check compression and make sure the battery is fully charged.
Also
Go to the Suzuki Motors page. I'm sure there will be guys there that can help. Be sure to have modl number when posting.
Good luck, you'll love your Cajun when you get it going.

thank you if the kill switch is bad and I cut the wires to it would itbypass that prob?
I would check spark. If the kill switch is working then you'll have spark. I would not bypass it. Not that I hook it on every time but you never now ehen you'll need to pull that cord.

"When they put it away for the winter" is the key. Even if they put stabilizer in the gas if they didn't run it and get the stabilized gas into the lines and carbs it did no good. Unstabilized gas sitting in the carbs over winter can turn to shellac. You may have to take the carbs off and have them cooked to make it run. Whatever you do get some fresh gas to it. This oxygenated gas also draws water like a bag of salt so you may have a bunch of water in the gas.
I just did a pontoon with an 18 gal tank on it. It accumulated over a gallon of water over winter.
