I have a 2005 700 that will run fine for 4-5 minutes and then will bog out and almost die but then I shut it off and restart it will run fine for 4-5 minutes and do the same thing. Changed plugs and air filter to no avail. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!!

please help?
I took my 04 sportsman 600 twin out last week and when it got hot it quit and dumped gas out into the air intake. I rebuilt the carb today and found the needle and seat worn. When finished, it ran great. As soon as it got hot it started to act like it was fuel starved and quit. Won’t start at all now. Cooling down as I write. Anyone have any suggestions? Plugs are new, when cold it starts fine and revs like a raped ape! When it gets hot, nothing.

Front wheel not locking in
Hi There, I have a 2001 Sportsman 500 6×6, A front wheel bearing went & ruined the Clutch & Electro Plate. I replaced them but it won’t lock in. I have good current to the magnet & it seems to have good strength and the wheel will spin when jacked up until i hold the wheel, then it stops. Got any ideas ??? Thanks " Chuck "

Fuel injector cleaners
Anyone ever use an occasional bottle of fuel injector cleaner, just for maintenance? I never have but a buddy and I were talking the other day and wondering if it was a good idea on EFI machines.
