Good morning, Our 2005 Polaris 120 stopped running yesterday (just in time for the new snow) It's been running fine up until yesterday. Here's what happened: Started it up, warmed it up, son took off and it died on him about 50 yards into his first powder ride of the season, I got it started again, it idled fine, but once throttle was applied, it killed. It did this a few times and then I decided to get it back to the garage (was able to feather throttle to WOT). I checked the plug, gas, connections, etc (everything seemed in working order) and it continued to behave the same (idle, but could not take a load). Now, I cannot even get it started (not even by putting a little gas into the cylinder). Spark appears strong, gas is fresh, I'm stumped. I can get it to pop (albeit very weak) when it's choked. Gas line and carb seems fine, I think it's electrical, maybe timing got messed up? I'm confused though because the spark seems strong, so I would think that the coil is fine. Could it be that little regulator/limiter, RPM box? Any ideas?
Thank you
