    Thanks guys. Good info. It has an aftermarket air filter. I'll check that . And I recently had to jump start it for the first time so battery could be going bad.


    That or the Flux Capacitor....recently had to replace mine on the Rancher [emoji108]

        i would say bad battery. my magnum is carbureted, and if the battery isnt good it will not run, even if you try to rope start it.

            I use fuel stabilizer but it does sit sometimes for up to a month without running

              You need to check the voltage on the kanuter valve.

                I had a similar issues with my Kawasaki mule, it had problems staying running and the local service tech told me to start running premium gas in it. Fixed it.

                  If you are on the factory battery after 4 years I'd start there. That has to be a record [emoji16]

                        Someone else mentioned Sea Foam... I started putting that stuff in my Polaris that I had when you and I hunted together in Trinity County about every 2nd or 3rd tank full of gas... I quit having fuel issues. That one was a carburated engine, but that Sea Foam is great for injected engines as well. New battery and a can of Sea Foam, maybe tighten (take slack out of) the throttle cable just a hair... You'll have 'er gennin' like a sewin' machine in no time!

                            All joking aside, it’s more than likely starved for fuel.sea foam, injector cleaner, or something similar and a good hard day of riding will fix her up good.

                              Got her running. Drained the old oil and put in some cheapie oil and sea foam in the gas and oil. Got it cranked and it sputtered for a bit and then finally evened out.

                              Let it get hot then drained that oil and put in the good stuff and another filter. Drove it around the property and it seems to be good. Put a little Stabil in the tank and called it a day.
