was tinkering with it to try to find the problem, I put a new carb on it, made sure there were no leaks in air box, made sure fuel pump is delivering fuel, it's clean fuel with new filters when I changed carb. I also replaced all the hoses on my 2010 buggy. I ordered a new coil thinking since it would idle fine and only lose power under power that it could be the spark, it's a new NGK plug and it was running perfect for about 3 tanks of gas. I've only used non ethanol gas in it since I put the new carb and changed fuel lines.
where it gets weird to me is if I plug off the air intake it runs fine (not completly but hold my hand over it) I found this out just in testing to see if the air box had a leak by covering it with my hand while holding the throttle open. to my surprise it started running right. I put a piece of duct tape over the intake and took it for a test drive, with 3/4 of the intake blocked it ran fine. I take the tape off and it spits and sputters with anything more than a tiny bit of throttle. any suggestions on what to try?
