Default Wolverine Snow Riding

today a freind and i went and did alittle snow riding out on the local lake and everything was fine until i started doing some donut's then my wolvy started cutting out like a spark or fuel problem, so i get off the quad and notice i major snow build up around the engine/carborator area.we go back to the house and i clean the snow away /change the spark plug and its still doing it.(sputtering) anyway a few hr's pass and the atv is pretty much dry i start it up and it runs fine...to make a long story short do any other wolverine owners have this problem? if so what did u do to fix it...thank's

Mine does the same thing when I do a donut. The wolverine is known for getting crud in the carb. I'm not sure if that is the problem, but it is my best guess.

Did you take change the spark plug? or just take it out then put it back in. It might have gotten wet.
