Default Snowmobile Running Rich??

Hey guys,

Got a 98 polaris triple, 2 stroke.

Fresh top end rebuild, about 5 hours on it.

Sled seems to be running very rich with choke all the way off. Bogs, pops, farts, backfires and hesitation - until she catches, then she runs like a raped ape.

Seems to get a bit better when she's fully warmed up, but far from perfect - still getting a hesitation in low rpms, bogging down....then she catches her breath and WHHHHHHHAM!!! About 110mph in 6 seconds.

Starts in 3 pulls with full choke up to -20. Run it like that for about 30 seconds to a min, then switch her over to half choke and she'd run all day on half choke if I let her.

Only problem is when it warms up it idles better with no choke, but that damn hesitation, burping and farting when smashing the gas.

Jetted too rich ?? What say you 2-stroke wizards.

- running premium fuel (no ethanol)
- always run seafoam in the gas (for last 3 years)
- shell 2 stroke oil (most expensive stuff you can buy from Canadian tire)
- carbs are clean
- did the same thing before top end build, although seems more noticeable now ??
- brand new irridium spark plugs
- air intake not blocked or restricted

Help.
