Quad shuts off when I turn the choke off

[Ghostbanshee84]

Ok so when I start my shee with the choke half out it idles I let it run for a few minutes and push the choke it it shuts off unless I'm on the throttle. When I put it in gear and start to go it will go then bog out. I was told carb needs adjusted or switch out the jets to compensate for the colder weather. I live in pa and it's cold as he'll here at the moment any suggestions?

Bone stock only ridden twice it's an 06 no idea what jets in it. I am a first time quad owner

Buddy of mine said sounds like the jets need switched

When it's cold, the engine needs more fuel.

With the choke pulled out extra fuel is allowed into the engine.

Turn the air screws in all the way, but gently.

This will add fuel.

Clean carbs, set float level, sync carbs, set idle, air screws out 1 1/2 turns.

In with this guy. A stock engine should be rich enough as is where you can adjust the air screws and get away with temp changes across the board.

I will try the air screw this afternoon and get back thanks for the help
