I ran my Sand Viper 1100 about 70 miles a few days ago with no problems. Today I washed the vehicle including the engine. After about 30 milutes I started it with no problems but the oil light was on very dim. The engine started to knock and I turned it off immediately. I checked the oil and it was only 1 quart low. I added oil and restarted it 3 more times with the same result. On the 4th try I let it run a few seconds and the knocking went away and the oil light went out. I use Mobil1 oil so the viscosity should always be the same. Does this sound like the beginning of an oil pump problem. I know in colder climates thick oil will take longer to circulate through the engine and some knocking noise is common, but this is not my problem. I'm just looking for suggestion. Thanks

      2016 MSU500 with EFI problems
      By RES
      Hello All,
       I got myself into a project with an MSU500 that I got after a dealership had done a teardown on part of the engine. The previous owner had been riding and it died. i was told the dealer said that whatever was wrong couldn't be fixed, parts not available. A bolt for the Starter Clutch had loosened and vibrated out destroying the Stator and shearing the Woodruff key.  I have replaced all of that and put the motor back together. My problem now is I'm a Carb. guy never touched an EFI machine and I am getting no gas to the motor. I have confirmed that there is No gas getting to the cylinder, it fires with starting fluid. The fuel pump is working, i have pressure to the Injector and power to the Black and White lead on the Injector and the same on the Red and white lead to the ECM/ECU. I have been reading and trying to understand some of the troubleshooting steps that I've found. I also have done the test with the Injector pulled out and put in a container and tried, not even a drop of fuel comes out. I have also tried with a New Injector installed with the same results.
         I know this is not a Simple system but any input, or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. 
       
      On a side note: This probably needs a new topic. but while i'm and this will sound foolish but. 
         Does anyone know where the Fuse Box is on a 2016 MSU500?? Believe me I've gone thru everything Under the hood. It is not in with or near the battery box as one manual says. Not one the firewall, inside out under the hood. I have spent hours working on both sides of the motor and Under it and I've not found it there. And after looking up a New Part for this I can't even find what are shown to be the correct Leads from the wiring harness to Plug into the unit.
      I thank you All in advance for any suggestions or info that you might be able and willing to provide,
       
      Robert

      2014 Bobcat 3650 Diesel Stalling after warm up
      By Steelheader09
      My 2014 Bobcat 3650 has started running rough. It starts fine. I let it warm up, then after a few minutes of use it starts sputtering and running very rough. Then stalls. It usually will start back up but continues running rough. If i let it cool off, it will run fine again for a few minutes, then repeat the process.

      Utv engine breaking
      By Ribble
      Hi, I’ve recently purchased an Ag Pro 1200 to find that it doesn’t have engine breaking. I live on a very steep property and it feels dangerous not having it. Does anyone know if it can be added? Or any other ideas? I’m mostly using it for weed spraying using a hand held wand… so I need to creep along stopping and starting. Thanks for helping.
