2002 Praire 650 boggs

usry28 · 09-08-2006

I have a 2002 Prairie 650 that boggs down when trying to accelerate. I just added gas to the tank from a local conv. store. It ran fine for 5 or 6 minutes and then my problem started. If you give it full throttle it will completely die. anyone know what the issue might be with my ATV?

check your vent hose from your gas cap sometimes they pinch and they make the machine run like crap or makes them die, also if it keeps doing it check your carb a piece of dirt might be stuck in there or something.

Found the Problem Finally
My problem ended up being dirtdobbers had almost completely stopped up the air supply tube to the air box. It was not getting enough air. The air supply opening on my 650 is located right behind the removeable cover on front of the steering column housing.
