I just recently had my Dad's '04 Warrior rolled in some deep snow when we were riding some deep drifted hills. Ever since it has only hit about 9000 rpm at WOT and sometimes will bog if you snap the throttle open, TORS is not causing the bog i guarantee you. Anybody have any ideas?

I tried a search but this forum is so big I gave up after i saw there were 4500 search results lol.
 

it sounds fuel related to me, low rpm and bog. i would pull the carbs, bowls, remove pilot and main jets and clean everything. any crap sitting in bowls could end up anywhere when it rolled. also check for pinched or kinked vent hoses and make sure airbox is on properly.
 
Thanks. I was thinking it was something fuel related, just was not too keen on pulling everything apart lol. I can get a little lazy. It runs fine everywhere but full throttle, sometimes if the angle drastically changes (mostly when the nose goes down hill) it will stall right out, but start up again with a few cranks. When I initially rolled it, it took about 15 minutes to start, so i must have flooded her out. Guess i'll change plugs and take the carbs apart and see if I can find out what's going on. Thanks again.
 
Carbs are clean, not a spec of dirt in them, blew them out anyway. Plugs look o.k. The airbox was however wrong on all 4 carbs, only covering about half of the bell and definately not sealing to the box. Would this cause the rpms to drop that much?
 
Well you guys were definately right. Amazing how something as small as an airbox can bring rpms down by 1000. Now i just have to fix the windsheild lol. Thanks
