Default Engine cuts out under hard acceleration

2001 warrior, having starting problems as posted before but when I pop start it and get it all warmed up it will cut out when I push the throttle down lets say anywhere past the half mark. I can get up to higher speeds if I slowly push down the accelerator but if I try to give it to much gas it just guts out and the exhaust will make sputtering pops until I let back off. Could this be a dirtying carb, maybe spray some carb cleaner in it? I just replaced the needle valve in carb and made sure I had new gas in it. Let me know your thoughts. Thanks.

Could be the ignition coil or pick up coil

my raptor was doing that 2 days ago, cleaned the carb, put new spark plug in it, runs like a dream.

Try taking the airbox lid off see if that helps! it helped mine alittle. my suzuki 400 was doing that after I put my big bore kit in finally I had to rejet it because it was running to lean.

yeah it seems like your carb is dirty. my old suzuki used to do that and it was just a clogged jet. i would suggest putting inline fuel filters
on the fuel lines. i run them on every bike i own and have never had a clogged carb since. they are only like a buck or two and you can get them at any local auto parts storeheres what one looks like
those are for a vw bug but like they make them for small engines and they fit any hose thats the size.
