Has anyone found a good source to purchase quality injectors for the Coleman Outfitter 550 ? I've used Motorcycle Doctor on eBay in the past but havent had to purchase one in almost 2 yrs now. Mine was running a bit rough at idle and dying sometimes so I had two that I had cleaned and tested at an injector shop. Put one in that had the best performance curve and it ran worse. Pulled it and installed the other one and couldn't even get the engine to start so I put the old one back in. Its running ok now, just want to get a new one to install

The fuel indicator doesn't work. The "gas pump" icon is flashing and there is no reading on how much fuel is in the tank. There is nothing in the manual to tell me what that means. Any ideas?
Thanks.

We just purchased the Coleman UT400, I put 5 gallons of fuel in the tank and the fuel indicator still reads "empty". After looking around the fuel tank, I found a tube that is only connected at one end, maybe this is the issue? I have been looking for a more comprehensive manual that may show how this tube should be connected, no luck. Looking for help on this issue/issues. Thank you.

Hopefully someone out there is a T-Boss 410 electrics expert or a Massimo mechanic is viewing this. I parked my 410 and it was working great. I came back a week later and attempted to crank it and nothing. Turned the key and no power. Figured it was a bad/low battery so I charged it. Still nothing. Attempted to jump start it and still nothing. Usually when I put the key in and turn it to the first position, the display comes on and I hear the ECU and other items boot. Now it is doing nothing.
I slowly went through the electrical system and found the main fuse attached to the starter relay, part 71602 (pic 1) blown. I figured replacing this fuse would fix my problem. It didn't. I then ordered a new starter relay thinking maybe that part had gone bad and caused the fuse to blow, but a new relay did not fix the problem.
I have found a work around for starting the machine. If I take one of the purple/black leads (pic 2) and insert one of them in the bottom right of the starter relay (pic 1 and 3) then the machine will get power even with the key in the off position. I'm bypassing something but don't know what. I can use my right hand to hold the wire against the lower right of the starter relay, reach over and hold the brake with my foot, then take my left hand and turn the key and it will crank. As soon as I remove the wire from the relay the machine shuts down. I have even removed the power distributor box and it will still get power when I touch the wire to the relay. Of course this is not the way it should work but if I can't solve this problem somehow I may just have to rig a connector to the relay and bypass whatever is causing the electrical issue. Massimo has told me the purple/black wires on my model are not used.
Any help in figuring what my problem may be or other items I can try?

May a moderator can make this a sticky or something.
The fuel gauge seems to be misunderstood on these machines.
All blocks of bars (red and white) represent the fuel level. When the tank is empty the red bar AND the fuel pump icon flash.
In the pic below, the fuel gauge indicates a full tank.
In this pic the fuel gauge reads about 1/2 a tank.
Notice in the 1st pic there is one red bar AND 5 white bars = full tank of gas.
In the 2nd pic there is 1 red bar and 3 white bars = about 1/2 tank of gas.
The tank holds about 7 gallons. I put 60 miles that trip and used about 3 gallons or so. Your MPG may vary.
Hope this helps the new owners and soon-to-be owners.
