ASAP HELP. Motor dies

[Vdub]

Hey guys out riding the go kart in the snow and for some reason it's just like clug glug glug and then it just dies there is a full tank of gas and it's not leaking. Could I have flooded it? Is it the cold? FYI it's a blue greyhound Honda clone motor

make sure your air filter is not dirty. remove the carburetor and clean it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HRc11H0mgtQ

Also 5w30 oil should be used in winter riding.

I'm kinda stuck far from home now, I waited probably 15minutes and it ran fine then it just went poop so yeah

Oh and FYI it only seems to happen in snow I ran it hard yesterday before any got here no issue I had this problem the last time it snowed

maybe you should take the air filter and carb advice before jumping to other conclusions.

I'm actually taking the carb apart now. The air filter did have some stuff in it but after cleaning that it didn't help

Snow = wet which means something is shorting out.

Cleaning the carb didn't help. Never even thought of that thanks I'll get working on that and see if it helps
