Change the plug and make sure the fuel line is not restricted. A restricted exhaust would also cause this problem. Will it rev higher if you spray starter into the throttle body when revving it up?

SOURCE: I have a 2013 sportsman Polaris 500. My atv stalled out while riding today and no lights or nothing will come back on. The battery is not dead either. And I checked the fuses?

These machines depend on a good ground. Make sure your ground connections are all clean and tight.... especially the ground wire from the battery to the frame. I recommend removing the battery terminal wires and cleaning the terminals... Also the negative cable that bolts to the frame... remove the bolt and sand the terminal that bolts to the frame. Check for in-line fuses... There is one in-line fuse near the battery!

I have 1999 Polaris Sportsman 500. Just replaced the carb, but now it will not start or run. I've adjusted the idle screw, etc. Ideas?

Adjust idle and mixture screws to default positions - start it and then make the necessary adjustments. Idle speed, low and high speed mixture settings if applicable..

Based on information provided I would start with just checking the basics as far as servicing goes, starting with air filter, is it clean, and is there anything preventing it from breathing easily. Check the accelerator cabling, might be dry, stuck or mucky somewhere from pedal to carburetor that can cause similar problems. Check oil level of motor as well.. Hope this helps
