| Rhino started spitting and sputtering at high RMPs and backfiring on deceleration. I changed the fuel filter hoping it was the issue but sort of knew it wouldn't help. I went for a ride yesterday and it progressively got worse and stalled out five or six times...then quit altogether. Had to get towed home. I can smell the fuel so I'm pretty sure it's flooding out.
I'm going to start with changing the plug and cleaning out the carb...any other suggestions? | |

| Flywheel key? That would cause it not to fire correctly hence the flooding? Am I on the right track here? | |

| Yanked the carb broke it completely down and cleaned everything. Also put in a new plug and tried the stock CDI. Got it to start, run solid at idle and mid RPMs but it completely cuts out at high RPMs and then kicks right back in once the RPMs come down a bit.
Any suggestions? | |

| Sounds like it may be starving for fuel. Have you checked your fuel pump for flow? Could the vent line from the carb be plugged? | |
