Always been a little cold natured, but now, if I can even get it to crank, dies as soon as you give it gas. Always gets ethanol-free gas. New spark plug and air filter didn't help. Old air filter was a complete mess and we suspect crap got into the carb. Previous Thread

Clean and blow out all the jets while its soak, and then blow out all the passages in the carb body before you reassemble it. That is what I did with my Polaris. I had to replace my carb and got a used factory one off ebay. I put a rebuild kit in it, and installed it. Thing wouldn't run for nothing. Did what I said above, and boom, cranked right up and has run like a top ever since. I use ethanol free gas too, but just because you buy that doesn't mean that's what was in the tank.
