1994 polaris 300 battery help

I have a 1994 polaris 300 4×4 I recently bought I had a couple questions that I was hoping someone could help me with as I really am lost when it comes to atvs. First problem I have is a major battery drain I have went through 2 batteries and decided to look further into why they are draining. There were 3 power wires and 2 grounds the main power and main ground then there was a power and ground for the winch and another power wire that ran from the battery to a silver nut looking thing in the rear storage Box that I have no clue what it is for. I unhooked everything except the main power and ground for now to see if that may fix the issue. The only other question I have is since this is a 2 stroke motor I have been pre mixing my gas and oil, using klotz oil, so that I could use klotz as from what I’ve been told it’s the best to use and not to use the oil tank in case the pump goes out. Anyways my question is do i need to change the oil on it? That may sound dumb but I see no oil filter or any place to put motor oil other than where you put the 2 stroke oil and I’m just assuming since it’s a 2 stroke the mixture lubricates the motor but any help would be great thank you all in advance

Grizzly 660 won’t stay running back fires

I have an 05 660 and since I bought it a year ago I’ve had what I thought was carb issues. Took it apart cleaned it out ran great. That is for one 3 hour day of riding and I go to full throttle and it won’t go faster than 20 without backfiring and trying to stall out. I run premium gas seafoam fuel stabilizer i haven’t found a permanent fix it keeps coming back. Figured it’s a bad carb so I went one ebay and bought a new one with new filter.

Drained the gas put fresh in and it started right up and ran up the street was fine came back wide open and it threw a fit and stalled out. I had to have the choke half way open to get it going. With the choke off it wouldn’t go I played with the idle and got nothing. Checked spark plug it was pretty black so I cleaned it put it back it started right up. Went open throttle in neutral and again it crapped the bed. I didn’t play with any of the adjustments on the new carb just installed it. It was never an issue before having to play with the choke it just wouldn’t let me fully open up. Now I can’t even get it to idle for more than a couple seconds with the choke on. I’m really disappointed because I just get my itp mega and my clutch back from coop45. Please any help is appreciated. It will be going to the dreaded dealer on monday if I can’t figure I out
