| Guys I need some help. The Rhino just sits and cranks and wont start. Does anyone have any advice? I tried the stock ECU and it does the same thing. I hear the fuel pump cycling under the passenger seat............... | |

It has new gas. Plug is very black, so I am going to try and replace that and see where we are at that point. | |

| could the air cleaner be real dirty, that would choke it out, or choke could be stuck closed. | |

| Could be a real dirty air filter. Plug should not be black. Your running real rich. Might be something with the VDI doing it. See if your getting spark. Check fuses. | |

| Replaced the plug and it fired right up. I let it run for awhile and all seems fine. I am going to take a couple replacement plugs with me to LBL tomorrow just in case. Thanks guys | |

| Well, it has not really been run and blown out for awhile. It needs to be run. I plan on doing that tomorrow. | |

I knew this , thats why i said it was nothing... Then again the VDI setup could be to rich. But i think it is most likely just from setting to much. thay may have been cranking it for you. and just not really running it. | |

| Starting it up, not really running it is my guess. I want to blow it out tomorrow. | |

| a new motor should not be fouling the plug!! i have an 03 kodiak 450 with 5700 miles with the factory plug. and the last 4 years it as not had 200miles put on it and it still starts every time.
hope its just from them starting it up and just letting it idle. | |

| it most likely is. an EFI setup shoots a burst of fuel every time you turn the key on. and it needs to be ran more than just cranking for a few seconds at a time. it really needs to be brought running temp.... | |
