Got a 1998 Polaris 400 xplorer the other day if ran great I was to tinkering with it and took the spark plug out to check it and I crack the hard plastic for the the coil real bad I taped it super think but it's not running right it bogs out when go in it throttle and spits and sputter help please

 

Sounds like the spark is jumping to ground. Should probably just replace the part.

 

Welcome to the forum.. Any auto or cycle shop should have a 90 degree cap.http://www.ebay.com/itm/NGK-Universal-Spark-Plug-Cap-90-Degree-Elbow-14mm-Thread-LB05F-/271969967632?hash=item3f52ac5e10&vxp=mtr

 

I will try this.. I thought maybe a carb problem it now idles at first then quits but starts right back up no hesitation my silionoid is bad also would this have anything to do with the problem

 

Solenoid wouldn't have anything to do with it.Get the new cap check that you have good spark,plus I'd check compression.If you have at least 125 psi or so may just need to clean the carb and replace any worn parts.http://www.ebay.com/itm/CARB-REBUILD-REPAIR-KIT-POLARIS-XPLORER-400-4WD-1997-1998-1999-2000-2001-2002-/270463779773?hash=item3ef8e5c3bd&vxp=mtr Plus several videos on youtube on this style Mikuni carb.

 

I cleaned the carb twice lol I am hoping it is the spark jumping ground but thank you... Thank you all any suggestions are appreciated and give me more thoughts I'll try it all
