2nd Problem when pulling away in 1st & 2nd the engine pull well right up to 4,000 which is it max, but when in 3,4,5 the engine will only pull to 3,000 rpm and then stops as if there is a rev limiter on the car, can anyone help with these issues. Many Thanks in advance.

Granted I've never driven a Fourtrak so I could be wrong but it sounds like the ECU is kicking in to prevent further engine damage. I would have a look around for ECU diagnostic methods to see what the fault is, chances are if you diagnose and rectify the fault with the ECU first the performance / higher engine RPM's will come back straight afterwards.
