Default 2003 sportsman prob..

I went for a ride yesterday and I few times I got my machine close to being stuck when I was giving it gas hard I would say probaly half throttle the machine started to miss and and bog out. I never lost power or stalled it but it was spurting pretty bad. The machine runs great at regular speeds and riding . I can say it acts just like when your in reverse with the overrdie button not pressed, that type of spatter. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks.

Might have got some water, mud or both in the secondary wires (plug wires) from the ignition coil. Or they may not be "snapped" on the posts tight.

Happened to my 800, and to my buddy's 700. I put some dielectric grease in the boot and snapped it back on. No problems since.
