Mod -it. It starts up really good and runs fine for 5-10 sec and then she dies.

When it dies...check for spark...may not be fuel at all.

I'm gonna take it to the shop tonight and let it thaw out, pull the carbs off check them, and check to see if something got suck in from the bottom of the tank. Pulled the filter outa the tank and tried running a little gas line antifreeze through the hose but no suction power so I'm starting to think it's clogged. Also gonna pull the airbox off and put the hotair gun to the pump, thats still a possability. And I don't think it's a bad wire, because for the short time it does run everything lights up like a christmas tree, high/low beam works.
Update---Took the sled out for a burn tonight and she's back to her good old self. The problem was a frozen pump. Took it apart and found water in it, cleaned it up put it back together and voila, she runs like new. Revs are still hanging abit but I can see the shims are getting worn.
