there is a small bolt or screw right beside the temp senser in what looks like a thermostat housing, loosen that screw while the engine is running and let the air bubbles out. air in the system makes the temp sensor read wrong and sends wrong signal to the computer.

      2006 Arctic Cat Prowler 650 H1 won't idle
      By Kidsskipp
      Getting my prowler to a running stage and can't figure out why it won't idle without throttle. Also see fuel spitting out air intake while running. High speed runs rough as well. I've done many things (that were needed) but it hasn't helped. New plug, rings (120 lbs compression luke warm), timing chain, valve job. Even tried a cheap new carb. Thinking I may be off a tooth on the timing but it looks pretty dang close. anyone see this issue before?

      MSU 500. Runs but will only move with full power.

      I have a MSU 500. I will start and run but requires basically full throttle to move. Does this machine have a drive belt? If so how difficult to change?

      Need help with EFI wiring on a 2020 axis/hisun 500 UTV from Lowe’s
      By Tim Barbero
      I left my 2020 axis 500 UTV parked under the carport for about 6 months and when I went to start it recently a squirrel has built a nest under the throttle body and chewed through the efi harness.  I stripped all the wires back and reconnected them with waterproof butt connectors.  The problem I have is there is one blue wire with a red stripe coming from the main harness this wire has 5 volts dc showing on my multimeter but there are two blue wires with a red stripe coming from 2 different sensors on the throttle body.  I looked through all of the bits and pieces of wiring left behind and there’s no indication that the three wires of the same color were all tied together.  Any help with this issue would be greatly appreciated.

      2017 Massimo MSU-500 Cranks but won't start.
      By Tim Nelson
      Ok guys, my turn...
      Working on my neighbors 2017 Massimo MSU-500.  Initial complaint was it would start and run for about 10 minutes and the just die.  He replaced the fuel pump and still had the same issue.  I stopped over one day to look at it and saw that it had codes flashing on the dash; 505, 336 and 337.  We decided to get a new stator/crank sensor.  Took it apart installed the new stator/crank sensor and nothing.  It won't even start.  I checked the pins on the crank sensor plug and one was in the wrong place, so I repinned it and it still won't start.  I double checked the connectors and all is good.  I checked the wires from the ECU to the coil, good.  It appears to have spark every once and awhile but not enough to start.  I replaced the coil with a known good one and still nothing.  I bought the cables and downloaded the ECU hardware and everything looks good.  I pulled the timing cover back off to check the flywheel keyway, it is good.  I checked the timing and timing chain, good.  I checked the valve lash, good.  I have to put it back together but just wanted to post in case there is something else I should check before hand.  I checked the 9 pin connector and it is clean.  I have battery voltage on the purple wire and pins 15 and 18 on the ECU.  I pulled the air filter off and I am going to put a new plug in it just for the heck of it.  What ECU inputs would prevent it from starting?  Why would it now not start at all after replacing the stator/crank sensor? It has to be something simple.  Any help would be appreciated.
