2007 Yamaha Raptor 700
Let at least 1 gallon of fuel flow freely from the hose removed from the carburetor. If it slows down at all it may be caused by the gas cap vent. Loosen the cap and see if it speeds up. See the 2 holes on the bottom (inside) of the gas cap, those are the vents. Shake the cap empty of gas, cover one hole with a finger and blow thru the other, (Yuck, you can wipe it off with a prep pad). You should not be able to blow thru. Now, try to suck thru, there should be no resistance, allowing the tank to vent. If the tank doesn't vent it creates a vacuum and eventually the fuel doesn't flow. When the motor runs bad and dies, the tank will eventually loose the vacuum and restart.
Will the RPM's increase as it shuts off?

How can I tell if the brass fitting that the hose connects to is partially clogged?

Another possibility is dirt thru the air cleaner getting in the carburetor. Remove the air cleaner and wipe the inside of the carb boot with a white paper towel. It should be clean. Even fine dirt could plug small jets.

Ok, will see what I’m able and comfortable to do myself. I’m stressing myself about it all though and slept very little last night. For a brand new machine, I kinda think I need to just dump it back at the dealer and let them do what needs doing to fix it. I paid full price for a working ATV.

The dealer won't warranty dirt, and the gas cap is easy to check.

I can definitely check that one. It behaved the same with engine running and gas cap off though.
