I bought a 97 recon for my girlfriend to ride with me on the foreman. I bought a new carb air box and seat all these were missing. I have it running snd and riding. But you have to play with the choke sometimes and it won't idle. If it idles itll run then you hear a pop and itll start to kill itself. Also make alot of what i understand is "lean pop" when you let off. My foreman does the same thing but only at higher rpms. This does it at even low rpm. I think it also has bad gas. So im going to drain the tank tonight. Pull carb and check cleanliness and put it all back with fresh gas. Anything else?
