2003 Bulldog Service Manual? Or Troubleshooting Help?

Hello,
I've got a 2003 (DATE: 6-03) Bulldog.
The bike has been mis-firing for some weeks.
Sometimes it just completely shuts off and I am unable to start her up.
100% charged battery, she cranks HARD, yet doesn't fire up.
The carburetor has been cleaned and rebuilt fully.
When she runs, she runs good. Idles beautifully. Engine pulls hard.

Yet right now I can't get her to fire up.
I was wondering if there is a Service Manual somewhere somehow?
I called the number shown on this link, yet it returned a message that it was out of order.
(316-260-8039)

I would like to know how I can start troubleshooting?
I thought of measuring the volts at the ignition yet... little bit lost.
Any ideas?

Thank you!

What you won't find in the manual, but more than likely what the problem is. Your EHC is supposed to fit in a holder. If the little tabs or not in the holder properly, your seat will push down on the e h c and compress the wires. Take a zip tie and put it around the box to hold the EHC in it's proper place. This was a recall many years ago, and the fix they required.

Wow you guys are awesome!
Thank you!
I've just downloaded the service manual.
Going to read through them...
And tomorrow when the sun fires up, I'm going to check Mr.Wright's suggestion to check the EHC.

Thank you!!!
