Boggs then dies when engine gets warm

Post by revrider5 »

I have a 98 Kitty Cat that runs fine when cold then once the engine gets warm it boggs and dies. I've cleaned the carb a few times, checked the spark it was good. compression is at 75 lbs. If anyone could help me I would appreciate it I have two little girls that want to ride and I don't know what else to check.

Compression is a bit low, I suspect your blowing past the piston and recycling through the crank case, that would cause what you are describing. Wont know what it needs until the top end is tore down.

Are you checking for spark right after it dies on you? I had a similar issue this year and it ended up being the primary coil.
