douger, who makes a 1994 dummit ??? Sorry I could not let that go!!

Anyhow, does the sled stall out ? One of the easiest thing to do is take it for a ride, and get to act up on you. turn the sled off after the sled is bogging for a while. And pull the plugs. They should tell you if you are loosing spark as in a ign coil getting hot. The plugs would be all wet and dark. Or if you are starving for gas. Then the plugs would be dry and light in color.

Hope this helps. My Brother had a sled that would bogg or stall after short run time. ( after good walking distance:lookaround:) Engine would get HOT due to lack of oil broken part driving oil injection pump. Would sit overnight start and run good stall short time later only after driving would idle all day.
