Newbie here with a question. We have a Bombardier 50 that my 5 year old rode into some water. The left front end dropped into a rut and water went up and over the front fender. The motor died, but I was able to restart it after a few minutes. The issue I'm having is that it will idle, but as soon as I give it gas, it bogs down. We have checked the compression, carb, and checked for air leaks but haven't been able to track down the problem. I'm thinking it may be electrical. Any sugestions would be helpful. Thanks

 

Welcome to the forums.
Please explain "checked the carb".

 

We took the carb apart and cleaned it out, checked the float, ect...

 

And removed both jets and made sure the lil holes are open?

 

Yes. Ran wire through and blew out with compressed air.

 

OK, did the stator get submerged? Maybe yuck in the stator.?
That has caused this before.

 

Dont remember checking the stator. Will do so, thanks!

 

Hi I am new here I have a 05 ds 50 And I am getting spark and fuel but it wont fire I have 70-75 lbs off compression is that enuff I just installed a new jug and piston rings and new gaskets any ideas???? thanks

 

I'm not a mechanic, but I can tell you that the compression in mine is around 120 -130. I don't know if that helps, just letting you know.

 

Yeah it does help but I still cant figure mine out as I Just put a new top end on this thing should have ooodles of compresion
