Alright I got my sled back like I said in the other post so I put fresh gas in it to just hear that it runs...and it wouldnt start...then I realized the gas was off...before I realized that I put fresh plugs in..alright well i got it running for a little bit...but it would only run good on full choke...and when it bogged out it wouldnt start again...so my guess is the carb plugged up like usual...gotta clean them yet anyways...I figured that would happen....but if you guys know what the problem is post.

i would put some sea foam in the gas start it let it run for 5 min on or off chock, if it will run with the choke off then do it. but let the sea foam get in to the carbs b/c they will clean all the sh!t out off there. if that dont work then i would bring it in to a shop.

I've never heard of "sea foam" but have used some stuff called Techron Fuel System and Injector cleaner... its made by Chevron and has always worked great for me... except for the time one of my drivers put a bottle in one of the diesel vans.
So whats this " Sea Foam" ?

Its a brand of cleaner that is a fuel stabilizer, engine cleaner, and carb cleaner. Tiller nothing you said was helpful...becuase for 1. I said it wouldnt run anymore 2. I said it would only run on full choke. Its never a good idea to put fuel additives into dirtbikes and stuff because they aren't designed for racing engines, and it makes more engine deposits. www.seafoamsales.com/motorTuneUpTechGas.htm

dont put additives in fuel when trying to start them. it doesnt help just makes the process harder. also as mentioned not in race engines, etc.
