Run some readline fuel system cleaner, before breaking out the wrenches, it's usually gummed up carb, from bad fuel.

The worst part is it should be adjusted under load to get the proper mix or you'll be at it all day trying.

I still remember when those edge chassis were new. In fact I've still got my 2000 yamaha mountain max, I bought new, although it never gets used, with my Axys Rmk, and modded M7 spare sled. At the time it's 141, and the Skidoo summit 151, we're the longest tracks available. If you wanna go old, but still almost as capable as the modern sleds, find a clean 2005-06 M7, or any M series up to 2011. Until the polaris pro in 2012, the M series was the best mountain chassis out, and a good rider, with a track upgrade, to a 2.6 or 3 inch power claw, can follow anywhere the new sleds got, you just work a little harder.

The full throttle bog sounded more ignition related ... either overheating or detonating if the CDI has DET on it. The CDI will cut the ignition in either case.
