Default keeps stalling

My lt bogged down and stalled about a week ago and i was lookin at it and readin my manual and stuff like that and i thought that it might be my coil due to the fact that i put a new stator in and maybe it couldnt handle the charge but come to find out no that wasnt it , it just stalled again today im think it might be my carb any suggestions???

I would say it is cold seizure but your engine didn't take a piston and/or lock-up. It still runs right?, What does your sparkplug look like?

I didn't notice what Suzuki you have but you can check a few things. It sounds like your fuel isn't getting to the chamber as you described. Make sure your fuel valve is turned to "ON", not "RESERVE". Since it sounds like you're flooding the chamber, next you should check the float in the carburetor. If the float is stuck in the bottom of the carb, it makes the engine run rich. The quad may start easy at times but stall after.
Do one test at a time and good luck.

DON'T mess with the air screw!!, your just lookin for trouble then, cause #1 if you screw it out too much you are either gonna run your quad way lean and score you cylinder walls OR put a hole in your piston! #2 if you put it in all the way its flood itself and not run at all or very little.
First put the airscrew adjustment to its original setting and try ecorman 1s options.
Good luck!!

I think its your carb. The float bowl is sticking. That should be the problem because if you replaced the coil and the stator I wouldn't know what else it would be.
