Hello there, I have 4 T2 troopers, 2 of them start and run like Champs, 2 of them have the issue. They will crank and crank but not start. Takes about 20 to 30 minutes to get them going, then they will run all day long and fire up at will every time. It's just the cold start they have a problem with. Since I have 2 that run good, I have swapped every part you can think of from the fuel system to ignition system with no success. I'm pretty stumped and am looking for any advice

Without knowing what you swapped, you'll get a lot of suggestions to check things you've already done. 

Leaking fuel injector could cause the issue by flooding the cylinder(s) with excess fuel.  Run the engine for about 20 minutes.  Let it sit for about 1 hour.  Remove the spark plugs to see if any are wet with fuel.  That cylinder's injector will be the problem.

This one is a stretch:  Fuel pump electrical circuit.  Turn on the ignition without cranking the engine.  Can you hear the fuel pump run for about 5 seconds?  If not, find out why.  That time is priming the fuel system to the injectors.  After the engine starts (from long cranking), a second circuit takes over supplying electrical power to the fuel pump.  If you can, check the fuel pressure on the fuel rail.  That pressure should build to about 40-50 psi from the time the ignition is turned on (before cranking the engine) through the engine start and run.

Apply a little accelerator while trying to start the engine.  If it starts fine, the throttle body needs cleaning or service.

If the intake air temperature sensor or coolant temperature sensor is faulty, that can cause hard starting.  One of them sends info to the ECU to tell it to add more fuel for starting (only if the engine is cold).

After checking these, I'd be at a loss, too.

      AXIS 500 Won't Start
      By jcbigg
      When I try to start my AXIS 500 (from Lowes) there is a buzzing sound coming from the battery compartment and it will not turn over/start. The battery is showing 12.47 volts so that does not appear to be the issue, are there any suggestions on where to look next?

      2022 Bobcat 34XL Brake pedal depress to start getting impossible
      By Jason S
      Good afternoon,
      I have a 2022 Bobcat 34XL.  Over time, I have to press harder and harder on the brake pedal before the ignition will fire. Now I have to practically stand on it with all my weight to get it to start.  Does anyone know if there is a spring or something that might need replacing, or have had this issue before? I don't have any schematics of the brake sensor/assembly.
      TIA

      "R" light will not go out when the UVT is in any other gear. Is this an issue?
      By Steve B
      My "R" light on the dash will not go out when I take the UTV out of reverse and put it into any other gear. Is this just the light switch issue or will this effect engine performance in the other gears?

      Mule 600/610/SX spark plug fouling issue
      By Travis
      Many people have issues with the kawasaki FJ400 engine  fouling out spark plugs, after  working on a  few FJ engines and 600 series Mule's with this issue,  i can say the fix for this issue is using a slightly hotter spark plug... the factory recommends a BPR6ES NGK plug.... the Number in NGK plugs represents its heat range and somewhat odd, the lower the number the hotter the plug, at least as far as NGK is concerned. If you have  a Mule fouling spark plugs try installing a NGK BPR4ES spark plug.
      FROM NGK
      A hotter heat range spark plug has an insulator design with a longer heat flow path to the metal shell of the plug. As a result, more heat stays in the ceramic firing end and less is dissipated to the engine. A colder heat range spark plug has an insulator design with a shorter heat flow path to the metal shell of the plug. As a result, less heat stays in the ceramic firing end and more is dissipated to the engine. For a spark plug to function properly, it must have a tip temperature high enough to burn off carbon deposits (self-cleaning) and avoid fouling, while remaining low enough to avoid overheating the ceramic firing end and pre-ignition.

      Start relay
      By donwan
      I have a part that fell over to the exhaust and burned the harness up. I can't figure out what it is. Does anyone know what the start relay looks like? The part I can't figure out has 4 wires, a red power, a green and brown wire, a black and unsure what the 4th color was. Anyone have a clue?
