Hello everyone, I hope someone might be able to help me with my problem. I went riding the other day and the following things happened:

1) The atv somewhat stutters upon mashing the throttle. It bogs down and takes a moment before it really takes off.

2) When I rode through water or mud about half wheel height or higher the engine bogs down significantly to were it almost stalls. I have to flutter the throttle to make it through the hole.

Since the ride I have drained the tank and added new fuel, installed a new spark plug, cleaned the air filter and taken apart and cleaned the carb.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to fix my atv?? I really do not want to have to take it to the shop, so I figured I would ask here first.

Thank you in advance for any suggestions!

Check your carb vent tube and exhaust pipe for mud. Tear down the carb and clean the jets. Reroute the vent tube and snorkel the exhaust pipe to keep them clear.

 

check air filter, put a good carb cleaner(sea foam) in your gas tank and remember to always put SUPER gasoline and not fecking regular, oh and your prob could also be a faulty spark plug wire boot or , maybe when your coil get's too hot it cuts out ,
