Too many years ago we moved from MinneSnowta to the Gawd Forsaken
State of New Jersey...  Not to worry, we got out of there last
September, now in the Black Hills SD.

Had a similar issue, frustrated me no end, and Bill at Dune Buggy
Supply in Hopkins MN (RIP).

Turned out to be a plugged CAT.  I had flooded the engine, CAT reacted
to the excess fuel, and plugged up.  Engine won't run if the CAT is
plugged.  Suggest you try disconnecting the CAT at the engine side and
try starting again.
