Recently acquired a 1988 Ski Doo Safari. This is my first sled and I have little to no experience with sleds or small engines but I'm smart enough to see the simplicity of how they work and just handy enough to be dangerous. So it had been sitting for possibly 2 years from what I was told. When I got it, it wouldn't start. Had some rotten gas lines, old gas etc. Replaced some parts, and it ran like a champ. For about a week. Then it wouldn't stay running. Had to replace the carb flanges, they were dry rotted through and sucking air. So while I waited on parts I decided to pull the carbs and clean them completely. Got the flanges on and it ran even better. For a day. Had it out yesterday and it suddenly didn't want to move when I applied throttle. After some fidgeting with the throttle it started to move a little bit at a time but when I would try to mash on it, it bogged out like it wanted to die. Feathered the throttle some more then eventually it started act closer to normal yet sluggish. Limped it home and it started acting up again. I should also mention that it will only idle for about 5 minutes tops and then dies out unless I throttle it. I can possibly make a video if that would help. I'm guessing it's something with the carbs but not educated enough to know what or how to fix it. Any help?
