Thought I’d post this in the general forum to try and get some more ideas. 
2008 Joyner Renegade

800cc EFI Chery engine

1100mi

Starts and idles fine, drives well until you actually try to go, then starts to sputter as if it’s starving for fuel. Does this no matter what fuel pressure I set it too. I’ve tried 35-80psi 

New fuel pump

New fuel filter

Cleaned injectors

New thermostat

Fresh Fuel

Any smarty smarts out there with ideas?

I thought that too, but it’s just the super skinny tips make it look like the gaps are huge, did just pickup a feeler gauge though, we’ll see whet they are currently at. Any idea what recommended plug gap is? .035…..

What are the spark plugs gapped at? It's probably just the pic, but those gaps look kinda big. 

Gap was about .050, gapped them to .030 and ZERO difference 😕😕😕

According to my service manual, the gap for mine is 0.6-0 7mm. Not sure how that converts to inches. But, it is a moot point since you already regapped the plugs. 

.023  -  .027 thou

so, Throttle Position Sensor was faulty?  that will cause problems 

Yes, I missed it because I noticed there was a spare TPS in the glove box. Swapped em out and  it would barely run. So I put the original back on, but never actually tried just unplugging it. Once I did that, holy $hit does this thing rip!

      Hope I posted this in the right place. Looking for the left side shaft carrier where the rear bearings go for an 1100cc sand viper, I understand an 800 cc carrier will also work. I need the old style two bearing with the spacer in the middle, the new style with just the one wide bearing wont work. If anybody has one I'll buy it right away. my email is [email protected]

      I am parting this out of ebay right now, I just picked up another project and could use the room. No I will not take less than $700 for all of it or $200 for the frame. I do not need to sell it, I will make far more parting it out but would like the extra space in the garage.
      If interested I also have an 07 1000rr engine setup I would sell with the buggy for $650.
      Thanks!

      I’m looking to best place to buy replacement axles for the rear in my buggy. Both axles are bad. Where is the best place to find them?

      Bought my 2009 Yamaha Rhino, (fuel injected of course), recently from the original owner. Only had 500 miles and 70hrs. Starts reliably, however, it will not idle but about 50% of the time. Also, when driving slow in low or high, that is to say, relatively low rpms and below about 10 mph, it bucks and almost wants to die..... not smooth at all. However, at speed (say 12-15 mph or more) it runs very well, like it should. Any ideas?

      I just bought an older (2008) Teryx 750 and am having some concerns.  Hoping of course, that most are not too big. . . but more knowledgeable folks like yourselves will surely have some ideas.  Thanks in advance.
      -- about 2700 hrs, camo version
      -- Starting:  after not running much at the auction site, I tried it and it was tough to start but half of this was likely I did not quite know the tricks for how long to keep the choke on. However, once it started it was kind of hard to keep running until it warmed up(once warmed it starts perfectly every time with no choke).  Now, back to running after the first ignition:  I had to hold the RPM's up a bit to keep it running and when doing so it sounded as if a little gnome was inside the engine pounding on something at random intervals.  Wondering if this could be detonation-- "knocking"?  After warming, it disappeared completely.  Maybe just need higher octane gas??
      -- After starting and running a bit there was a pretty terrible smell, most "like" burning rubber or an electrical fire.  No fire or resolution of this.  Eventually this TOO went mostly away, but still basically present.  Could it be adjustment needed for the main belt variable speed tranny?
      -- When I move from neutral into either Lo or HIGH range forward gears, I get gear clashing.  I did NOT put foot on brake and read in manual(just NOW) that you are supposed to do so.  (I have NOT gotten back out to check and see if this matters. )  OR, could it be part of the drive system is mashed up??!  Geez, hope not.
      -- There is a big open hole allowing direct sight into the belt transmission on the back right side.  This can't be normal, it must require some plastic cover.  Right?  Any rodent could get right into the transmission!
      -- THere appears to be no muffler or spark arrestor unit.  This "could " be the cause of some of the smell. . . ??  but that should not smell like burning rubber or electrical smell. . .
       
      SO.  That is all.  
      I sure would appreciate any insight on this issues and finally(!). . . if I was to take this into a local dealer what would you say are the top three issues I should have them address first?
       
      thanks!
