Look under the engine of the QuadRunner for any signs of leaks coming from the engine or transmission. Remove the gas filler cap and inspect to make sure you have enough gas in the tank. Pull the engine oil and transmission dipsticks and observe the dipsticks to see that level is above the "add" line. If the level of these fluids is below the "add" line, top up the oil or transmission fluid before you operate the vehicle again. Monitor how long it is between each time you add these fluids.
