Massimo T-Boss 410 Died on the run and won't restart

T-boss 410, I have no idea. The service manual said 1400 kPa. 1400 kPa/6.895 kPa/psi = 203 psi (not 217, my bad). I'm already operating way above my pay grade on this. I have gone above and beyond to fix it, but now I'm ready to move on, cut my losses, pick myself up, dust off, and load the SOB on a trailer.

Current status: On 3/7, I put everything on the vehicle back together and took it to San Marcos Powersports, a Massimo dealer. As anticipated, they are backed up with repairs for weeks and are having labor issues just like most small businesses these days.

Prior to packing it up, I did a proper compression test and got 105 psi. So, this still seems low. Here's the summary of it all now: cranks and will not start, has initial one time fire at beginning, throws P0201 (injector malfunction) and P0351 (ignition coil issue) codes, has spark and fuel, ignition coil and pickup coil have good resistance readings as does the stator, no visible mechanical issue - everything engages and turns, and wire harness is delivering voltage to ignition related circuits. ECU function and electromechanical ignition triggering cannot be verified with my current toolset. So, I have punted.

Update on my T-Boss 410: It has been a San Marcos Powersports for over a month. They started evaluating it about 2 weeks ago. The mechanic there determined that it has a broken crankshaft chain. This explains the low compression readings and the computer confusion. Parts are now on order and an end to this saga is in sight. It'll cost me less than I thought, but it is still quite a chunk of change nonetheless.

More to come...

      I have a Bennche 700 EFI Bighorn. I’ve recently been unable to get it to start. After a little troubleshooting I realized my fuel pump was not pumping fuel. This weekend I emptied the gas and replaced it with new. I replaced the fuel pump, fuel filter and fuel injector. I also replaced the battery, spark plug and made sure all my fuses and relays were good. I have confirmed that the float on the fuel pump is not obstructed. The UTV is about 12 years old and has less than 100 hours on it. It has not run in over a year.  Not sure whats going on?!? After doing a little reading I'm leaning towards it being an issue with the ECU or perhaps a faulty wire in the wiring harness. Anyone have any ideas on where to start looking or what I could be dealing with? Any help is appreciated, thanks in advance!

      My 2018 Hisun sector crew engine cut off after about 15 minutes run. There is no indicator of what is wrong, no error code just die and won't restart until it cool down. I notice that the fan is not running but the temp indicator is on low temp, no overheat indicator. I checked the radiator fluid, it is cool to touch.
      Cooling fans are working, I can hear it running once awhile if I can get the engine warm up enough.  Thank you for all the help.

      hello everyone, i just joined this forum to try my luck, few days ago i bought an old (dont know exactly), 2011/14 hi sun 500cc ""carburated"",  was not running at the time, but i fell was a good deal and decided it to bring it home to play with it, this is the issue, i bought and installed a new carb, and pump, i repositioned the battery location and upgraded to a "car batt", reconnected the fuel lines and started it, but it only runs with the choke ON, i checked the bowl, it does have fuel,but for some reason wont inject it to run, i came across a video that say that ""the body small tank had to be connected for the cart to run" (was deleted when bought), sure enough i got it to run sporadically , but the so called ""small body tank'' often runs out of fuel and wont refill itself , i had to couple times do it manually, so how does that small tank works ?..what does it do?..and why if  bypass it , the cart wont start?....any help?..thanks so much!!!
