The Suzuki LT-A400 does not have an electric fuel pump; it uses a gravity-fed fuel system with a fuel valve. If the engine only cranks and does not start, the issue may be related to the fuel valve position or fuel reaching the carburetor. Ensure the fuel valve is in the "ON" or "RES" position (not "PRI") and verify that fuel flows properly to the carburetor. If fuel is reaching the carburetor, check the ignition system next.

Fuel System: 1G-2 Fuel System Description B827H11701001 Fuel System The fuel system consists of a fuel tank, fuel filter, fuel valve, vacuum hose, fuel hose and carburetor assembly. When there is negative pressure (vacuum) in the combustion chamber, the fuel is able to flow from the fuel tank, through the fuel valve and then to the carburetor assembly.
Page 168
1G-3 Fuel System: Fuel Valve When the engine is not operating, the fuel valve (1) is kept closed by the tension of the spring (2), which closes the fuel passageway and stops the flow of fuel to the carburetor. When the engine has started, negative pressure (vacuum) “A” is generated in the combustion chamber and reaches the diaphragm through a passage in the carburetor’s main bore and the vacuum hose.
Page 169
Fuel System: 1G-4 Diaphragm and Piston Operation The carburetor is a variable-venturi type, whose venturi cross sectional area is increased or decreased automatically by the piston valve (1). The piston valve moves according to the negative pressure present on the downstream side of the venturi “A”.
Page 170
1G-5 Fuel System: Slow System This system supplies fuel during engine operation when the throttle valve (1) is closed or slightly opened. The fuel from the float chamber (2) is metered by the slow jet (3) where it mixes with air coming in through the slow air jet (4). This mixture, rich with fuel, then goes up through the passage to the pilot screw (5).
Page 171
Fuel System: 1G-6 Main System As the throttle valve (1) is opened, engine speed rises and negative pressure in the venturi “A” increases. This causes the piston valve (2) to move upward. The fuel in the float chamber (3) is metered by the main jet (4). The metered fuel enters the needle jet (5), mixes with the air admitted through the main air jet (6) and forms an emulsion.
Page 172
1G-7 Fuel System: Starter (Enricher) System Pulling the starter (enricher) plunger causes fuel to be drawn into the starter circuit from the float chamber (1). The starter jet (2) meters this fuel. The fuel then flows into the fuel pipe (3) and mixes with the air coming from the float chamber (1).
Page 173
Fuel System: 1G-8 Transient Enrichment System The transient enrichment system is a device which keeps fuel/air mixture ratio constant in order not to generate unstable combustion when the throttle grip is returned suddenly during high speed driving. For normal operation, sum of the air (1) and (2) keeps proper fuel/air mixture ratio.
Page 174
1G-9 Fuel System: Float System The float (1) and needle valve (2) work in conjunction with one another. As the float (1) moves up and down, so does the needle valve (2). When there is a high fuel level in the float chamber (3), the float (1) rises and the needle valve (2) pushes up against the valve seat.

fuel pump wont come when turn key on bike only cranks wont start take out plug pour little in put plug will start for few seconds
The Suzuki LT-A400 does not have an electric fuel pump; it uses a gravity-fed fuel system with a fuel valve. If the engine only cranks and does not start, the issue may be related to the fuel valve position or fuel reaching the carburetor. Ensure the fuel valve is in the "ON" or "RES" position (not "PRI") and verify that fuel flows properly to the carburetor. If fuel is reaching the carburetor, check the ignition system next.
