Sounds like the low speed jet is plugged. That's an easy fix. My 300 was doing that this summer and I fixed it with no problem.

It ran fine last time I used it which was about two months ago. Its an 05 but has not been used much. The way its acting is like its flooding but it should't be. It has fire, I cheched that. So I,m thinking fuel problems of some kind.

did you try draining the old fuel, and cleaning the tank? Do you use Stabil?

If its a 420 rancher I had trouble with the automatic choke hanging up but it would only take a couple hours and it would start again, also check fire at plug after it dies could possibly be a coil problem.

Old gas, carb build up. Had the problem this year with my honda fourtrax, drained some gas, added new gas, runs like a champ once warmed up. before it actually ran perfect we ran 2 tanks thru it and now she works just fine

When it starts to die, throttle the choke a little to see if you can keep her running.
If it does keep running, then it is the low speed jet.

I was thinking low speed jet also but usually they will keep firing up and then die not just not start for a day or two. But I have seen carbs. give some strange problems.

Haven't had a chance to work on it yet but for kicks I tried to start it yesterday and it would not start at all. Guess i'll have to check it out this weekend.

Well, I finally got a little time to check the bike out. I broke the carb down and it could have be clogged jets...I really couldn't tell. I think the real problem was the float valve. It was stuck and took a little work to loosen but I got it out. Cleaned it all up real good and put it back on. Fired right up and is running great. Thanks for the help!
