Default 2005 Phoneix problems

We have a 2005 and a 2007 Polaris Phoneix. The 2007 is running good. The 2005 isn't. Some times it acts like it is not getting power from the battery when the key is on and some times it will die for no apparent reason. When it is running it is severly lacking in low end torque, I mean really lacking and it takes forever for the rpms to build up. Any help is appreciated by me and the Grand Kids.

A few things could be happening, how old is the battery,is it charging(14 volts at the battery while running) Other problems could be in the clutches or could just need a new belt?? Plus do the machines sit up a lot without any kind of fuel preservative? Could be one or more of the above. OPT
