Someone mention unhooking the O2 sensor on  my  Hisun/Coleman 550 to see if it affected the no start when warm (even slightly warm) condition. Sure enough, once it cleared the crap out of the cylinder it started repeatedly with no issue! So I figured I'd run some dog food out to the LGD's with the sheep. On the way back I, not doing more than 4-5 mph because the stupid retarder still kicks in regardless of the seatbelt being buckeled, I hear "KAZING!!!" and the engine noise changes and I start getting smoke. Turns out a piece of what I think is the decompression system on the top gear on the timing chain let go and punched a hole in the timing cover. I also discovered, as I suspected, the timing chain is loose as a goose with a good 1" of play inside the case.  The tensioner doesn't seem to be doing anything at all. I'm not sure where all the pieces ended up, so I'm going to do some exploratory surgery. What a hunk of crap. We're still paying for this thing, it's got only 176 hours on it. Screwed doesn't begin to describe our condition!

No, 2019 model. Spent most of 2020 in a shop, that's why it has so few hours on it. Coleman is worthless as far as warranty work goes. Might as well just shorten it to Coleman is worthless!

      I have 31 miles on my new T-Boss 550. In order to start I put in nentural and the emerage brake on and push down on brake paddle, then trun ket and get nothing, with key still on I shift to reverase and the back to netural and it starts.  Anyone know what is happening.
      Thanks for your help

      So I have a Bennche Bighorn 500 that I bought used a couple years ago. Was working fine until this winter when I was plowing and I think it drained the battery. And had a difficult time starting and staying running. Idle seamed really low, and would only stay running if I pushed on the throttle. So I changed the battery, and the acm valve, fuel filter and spark plug it will start up and surgery to 3k rpm but comes back down and dies, unless I give it throttle. I am getting fairly good amount of fuel from fuel pump.  It does spit at stutter right before it dies. What should I try next?

      I have a Coleman 550.  Was having problems to start with where it would start and then shut off after a couple tries. It would take off and be good. It then got to a point where it would not start at all. I replaced the fuel injection twice the second time I replaced it I noticed a mouse or something had chewed one of the wires that connect the electrical to the fuel injector. . So two-part question first does anybody have a part number for that wire harness?  Second, any other ideas after I fix the wire harness permanently on what could keep it from starting I have gas flow up to the fuel injector.

      My Massimo 500 will not start. I’ve checked all the obvious things. It turns over just fine. fuel, spark, fuse box are all good. I can’t figure it out. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
