a few weeks ago, I drowned out my recon in a water hole... more like a pond I guess but thats another story. Anyways, right after I did it I changed the oil, and I've got it looking the color oil should now after changed it 5 times. my other problem is this... It starts, but it misses. The weird thing is, if you ride it at idle or 1/4 throttle it misses, but if you gas it real fast and put the motor under a load it runs fine, but once it gets up to speed and gets the load off the motor, it starts running horrible again... whats the problem?

 

Did you ever clean your Carburetor? If not clean it and that should make it run better.

 

I didnt "clean" it, but I did get a bit of muddy water outta the float bowl and overflow tubes. I'll take it apart tommorow and check it out.

 

also make sure your air cleaner is clean and DRY!! replace the spark plug take apart all electrical connections and blow them out with compresed air the reinstall them with dielectric grease ...might help
