im currently in idaho on vacation, and my quad was running fine for the first 5 days and just today it starts to cut out in the high rpm's. Whats going on with it, the elevation is a little higher than where i live, but why would it run perfectly for 5 days and today start to cut out? please help me out. thanks

Did the filter get too dirty?

 

it was fairly dirty but i cleaned it and oiled it before i started having problems. It seems as if its getting worse. It feels like its not getting enough gas. any suggestions?

 

I would suspect fuel contamination. Something clogging a jet????

What kind of shape is your spark plug in???

 

did the problems start right after you cleaned your filter

 

ya the next day..

 

You mite have oiled it to much and its in the carb. take the filter off and run your finger inside the carb and see if the oil is in there. Cause the other day i cleand/oiled the filter on my rancher and it started to run like crap so it took the filter off and there was oil in the carb opening. All i did was cleaned the filter again and drove it around and it quit

 

ya thats what happened. i had oiled my EHS lid and outerwears, which i usually never do. so a few hours ago i took of the lid and outerwears and it ran fine. thanks

at higher elevation levels your jetting will be richer, causing it to stumble at high rpms. you may need to get a smaller mainjet for high elevation levels.
