Previous owner (22 years and 5,000 miles ago) said it was prone to flooding when sitting for a long time or trailering, so I shut the fuel off in both cases. Primary is significantly worn. I replaced several rollers and pins which helped. I have two used clutches in much better condition that I could (and should) install. It seems more like when I hit the throttle, but the bog could be from poor clutch shifting. Will have to pay attention next time and inspect the clutches. Thanks for the ideas. -

Nope, he beat me fair and square, all his. This weather had been depressing. As it sits now we are looking at a later than normal ice out. I hate scrabbling with docks, lifts, boats right before opener. Also limits some pre opener crappie chances. -

In those years Polaris was known to put buna tipped needles in there sleds. They get a ring around the seat and don't seal shut. But if that would be the case your problem would be with the motor shut off and filling the crankcase with gas. If your plugs are brown that is were they should be. I wouldn't drop that needle down to the last grove. I would replace them before I did that. I have never had a carb with that setting. Have you looked at your clutches? They could be dirty or have a bad roller. Does it bog as it's accelerating or when you hit the throttle? -

As soon as I started reading mind went to needles and seats. You might want to try just replacing those first? I’ve only done that once before in my life but it made the difference. A carb refresh in 8,000 miles seems reasonable. -

Good luck smurfy! On getting drawn, I mean! If it comes down to it, I know a guy that might be interested in a nice hide. -

My 30 year-old Indy 500 (over 8,000 miles) has been having a mid-range bog for many years now. It is worse on warm days and when the engine is warmer. The sled runs fine up to about 1/4 throttle, then runs extremely rich up to 3/4 throttle. The spark plugs are dark brown (better brown than down?) but not saturated. 8 years ago I moved the clips on the jet needles from the 3rd to the 2nd groove to lean the mixture and it helped for a while. Should I move the clips to the top groove (temporary solution)? Could the jet needles, needle jets, and/or the main jets be warn and need replacement? Don't think I will have time to tear the carbs apart this season for a rebuild so I may just band-aid the problem. -

I think that Mike89 picked April 26 two hours before you, jparrucci. Is that correct Mike89? -

My last hide I gave to my Taxidermist friend to make what ever he liked out of it. I've got a few fun Bear hunt stories to be told. All 3 of us our first year stupidly tracking a blood trail in the dark together and getting lost, luckily smelled the bait making circles and got out. 🫣 Flash lights dying, deep in a swamp following a blood trail in the dark, the one who stayed at the bait called us back in! We learned our second bear! Lol. 😞 Downing a wounded charging bear with the last bullet when tracking, no lie! 😬 Have had my fun! 🥳
