I got a big problem. Bike will crank only with the throttle pinned all the way but wont rev it just kinda bogs and as soon you start to let off it dies. The bike was running fine prior to this. Its been sitting about a month in the shed. Its getting gas, has fire, 105 psi. This is my wife's bike and she does not ride it anymore so I was getting it out to clean and sell but now this. Any help would be greatly appreciated. :bangheadc:

You may be getting fuel, just not enough. First try tapping on the side of the float bowl with the handle of a screwdriver, you may just have a stuck float. Then try draining the tank and the carb, start with fresh gas. Then make sure the fuel petcock and fuel lines are clean and clear. Next you may want to take the carb completely apart and clean everything. I believe that is a 2-stroke, so while the carb is off, check the reeds. If none of these things help, check your flywheel key and test your ignition components, coil, CDI, stator, plug and wire. Also, 105 psi is pretty low, so that is not helping things any.

      I am unable to find a wiring diagram for this UTV.  When I turn the switch to on, the contractor does not engage.  The Brake pressure switch and the parking brake switches work correctly. What else should I be looking for?  All of the diagrams I have found are for newer models and the wire color coding is different.
       
      Thanks

      How to replace throttle assembly spring?
    • By OldATVowner
      Just getting into this issue really. Been replacing solenoids but now I'd like to track down the problem. This time I'm not getting neutral/reverse lights or start button. Was on a creek ride when it started doing this recently. It cranks by arcing the solenoid and gives me no light or start button but if I crank with the pull cord....the neutral light and the button work. Turn it off and try to crank with the key and nothing. I'm looking into the safety switch issue tomorrow and re charging the battery. Just figured this was odd enough of a problem that you guys might be familiar. Thanks
