Power steering problem

I have a 2009 grizzly 700 … while on a ride the power steering would cut out and fight when trying to turn left I stopped the bike and shut it off and then turned the bars back and forth … when I started up again and continued rideing there was no further problems .. anyone have any idea what caused this thanks

Ignition coil dead, very common?

Going to get a new multimeter to confirm but pretty sure my coil is dead or barely working.
Started fine yesterday then today it started for a few seconds with a very low weak idle then died and ever since it’ll crank and backfire once in awhile, exhaust has smoke coming out, fuel pressure and fuel quality is good. Unplugged my programmer and no change. Unplugged the wires from the coil and the backfiring stopped. I also cleaned the grounds, checked the air filter etc..
I sprayed some ether to it and same thing it’ll backfire and smoke but won’t fire the cylinders. The spark plugs are ngk iridiums with maybe 250 miles.

Last weekend I went to disney, ok and had zero problems. Anyone been thru this or something similar? Doing a search I didn’t really pull up much about bad coils.

2000trx350te idles then dies

I have a 2002 rancher 350 es with a brand new fuel tank, petcock, OEM Carb, Primary and secondary air filter. It will start and idle fine but when you give it fuel it wants to bog out and die. Is this a fuel air mixture problem possibly? I checked for air leaks from where carb goes into the engine using ether to see if it picks up and seems there are no air leaks. I have read that to adjust the air fuel mixture that it is on the pin in the plunger that needs to be moved. Just want a second thought on this. Also the fuel in it is non ethanol fuel and fresh. Fuel flow is also good from tank to carb.. Thanks for any help you guys can give in advance…
