Sorry if this is in the wrong area. I'm new here and have an issue.
Just bought this thing. It's like new and was sitting for a few years. I changed the gass and put fresh oil in it while charging the battery. It started right up and idles fine.
The problem is that I start to give it gas and it acts like it starts to go but dies as I give more gas. I put it in reverse and the same thing. It starts to go but then bogs out like a brake is on or something. The wheels spin freely when up on blocks.
All the help I can get is greatly appreciated!!!

Is it completely warmed up? You’ve described what I commonly see with some buggy automatic chokes before it is fully warmed up.

Sounds like a thorough Carb cleaning may be in order ....

Thanks guys, it was the fuel lines clogged up from gunk in the tank. I didn’t have it cleaned out well enough.
Thanks for all the help. She’s up and running now!
