It seems that whenever I jump my traxter or do doughnuts in the snow, the engine will start to sputter and will do nothing but idle for probably 10 minutes. When I give it gas, it just backfires and sputters. Eventually it will start running perfectly again. Does anyone know what the problem could be? I put some iso heat in the gas, and carbeurator cleaner, and drained the bowl on the carburetor. It seems that there must be a piece of dirt getting infront of the main jet or something becuase it idles fine.

 

Sure does sound like its carb ...check the float bowl for small particles, that can float around and plug the jets. Clean it up good, and try again. Other things to check, plugged vent, or fuel line. Or not enough gas in the tank.
