I have the same problem on my 2003 WARRIOR, working on it right now... It runs OK on idle but as soon as I give it a little trottel it missfire badly..

Checked the carb/inlet and new spark plug. The spark is a little weak...

Did you take the carb apart and clean it? Has it been sitting for a while? Have you tried a new spark plug? You may want to test the ignition components, stator, coil, cdi, and check to make sure you have a good connection between the coil wire and plug boot.

I had that same problem, its a dead man switch! I had to replace my switch after i rolled my 2003 Warrior 350. 42$ later it fixed the problem. I was thinking it was a clogged jet, but had my wifes dad look at he (an atv and car mechanic) if you take the top switch on the left side of the handle bar, cut it and uncross the wires it will run fine. If you have it running fine, for craps and giggles, apply your parking brake and then try and hit the throttle, it does the same thing! It prevents you from riding the quad under those circumstances. Like I said before mine did the same thing, the motor sounds like it cuts out constantly, but never dies, idles fine all day but just doesn't run like it should.

      My 1992 TRX00 recently stopped firing.  I understand this is a common problem. I have ordered an aftermarket CDI unit.    TJ

      Hisun 700 EFI. Replaced TMAP sensor had broken off . Fuel pump pressure 41psi. The only way I can keep it running (and runs fine) is to close off fuel return line.

      This thing came with a cheap aftermarket carb on it the problem I'm having is it won't start with choke installed into carburetor it will start and get run without it installed then bogs out after about 2 min run time I've checked timing , compression, checked valves for proper clearance , also did a smoke test for air leaks found none.

      Hey all, new to the forum! I just bought a 1998 Kawasaki bayou 300, 4x4 not running. Initially I found no spark. Ended up playing with the plug wire (made sure plug top and wiring was touching) and got spark yesterday and the quad fired up off ether. Come to work on it today and now no spark again. Before I got spark and now today if I touch the plug after cranking I get shocked, and it will spark after I release the starter button. I was jumping the quad with a freshly charged car battery that has 12v while cranking. Cleaned out the kill switch and ignition button. All looks good. Purchased new plugs. They're are a lot of wires cut/ disconnected. But shouldn't matter if I got spark without them connected...

      I picked up this ATV that had no spark. The previous owner said he was driving it and it died and would not start. He discovered it had no spark. He replaced the CDI and the coil with no luck. He got tired of it and I bought it. I replaced the stater and now it has strong spark. Now, it starts for a second or two then dies. It will not stay running. I have checked the timing and it is spot on. The valves are adjusted correctly. I see no warn issues with the cam. I put the original CDI and coil back on it. Same problem exists. Compression is at 65 psi (has decompression mechanism),
      I took off the muffler in case the issue was clogged pipes. No change. I replaced the spark plug. No change. The carb was an aftermarket so I put a Niche carb on with no change. I bypassed the fuel pump and that did nothing to solve the problem. 
      I don't know if this is a carb issue or an ignition issue. I am looking around locally for an OEM carb to try out but not sure that will fix the problem. 
      Can anyone help me solve this problem. I am running out of ideas. 
      Thank you for your time
      Bill
