yeaaaaaaa! finally got the sled out, but the thing is that it bogs and actually stalled once when i gave it wide open off idle. have you ever heard of this??? what could it be???

How old was the gas? If the gas was from last season or even more than a month ago it could be stale.
What was the temperature? If it was 40* and the sled is jetted for 10* it could cause that.
Im better its bad gas.
When I first bought my Phazer 2 years ago it wouldnt idle the first morning I rode it. It also fouled out a set of plugs while it was idling in the driveway. However, after I rode into town and filled it up it was fine from that day on.
I say drain the gas out, dump in some fresh gas and then see how it runs.

i would change the gas and put new plugs in................my srx was a little finicky this year. i changed the gas, added stabalizer, and put new plugs in..................

..you might want to clean out those carbs too, that is if you haven't already...

Sounds like dirty pilot jets,mine did the same thing until i cleaned the jets.

ya the gas is only about a month old. it runs fine when im already moving maybe a little boggy, but from a stop if you hit it, it will bog or stall. it was a little warmer out, but it was snowning pretty good. so i guess i will get the carbs cleaned and get the jets checked. thanks guys.

a good carb cleaning will do wonders,,,,,

A bad belt or clutching that is out in left field will give a bog also.....once you clean those carbs that would be my next thing to check.

ok i have cleaned the carbs, disconnected the TORS, and it still bogs. once it is engaged it pulls like nuts. lots of power, but right off the get go, it bogs. could it be the pilot jetts??? what is the normal range of idle for the srx???

I think the next obvious place to look is the clutches.... Have they been cleaned / serviced anytime recently?

Lindsay hey? Think I think I know this sled :D

yes the clutches have been cleaned and serviced. i thinkk it is definaltly sometihng to do with the engine, any ideas???

how old is the gas,,,, bad gas does this,,,,
is the filter clogged?? in tank filter?? is it clogged??

if it didnt run like this last year, and it is this year, I wouldnt think you have motor problems,,,

when you cleaned the carbs, did you adjust the air screws to spec???

Check the belt.................

The thing you should check is that the reeds are making full contact with the reed cage in other words none of them are getting tired
