when I first got it, I did not have anyproblem with it staying on nov 5. Now that it has gotten cold it will not stay on when it is cold at idle. I thought that since it was an efi it would not have a problem staying on when cold. when it finally warm up it stay on. is this a common problem. and how long do it take for it to warm up?
ON a good note it is putting my cousin's 02 700 in place from the jump. It take him about 50 yds to catch up with me.

 

you need to take your machine in to the dealer, the problem you are experiencing is not normal at all...

I have a 2005 700 EFI and it runs great, starts great, and idles great in either warm or cold....

the dealer can reload your maps for you or diagnose your problem by connecting the computer to it...

 

I have 400 miles on my 500 efi and it has been down to 20 degrees It starts right up and idles fine....You should be idling at about 1150 rpm...

 

Have you checked to see if there are any EFI diagnostic codes?

 

it idles at about 1150 + or - It is like time I get off the trottle it just cut off. If it dose not rain tomorrow I will take it back to the dealer. About to ckeck the codes right now.

 

OK did the key trick and nothing happen. I am staring to wonder if i should have went with a carb. my bother is not having any problems with his 05 carb 500. I know that this is a new machine but i thought that they work out all the problems with the 700 and 800 efi.

 

Have you checked to see if your throttle ETC is out of adjustment?

 

the etc was the problem . we did ot even unload it off the trailer. dealer said they have had a few to come back.

 

yes, etc, same as mine. Dealers should catch that.

 

chalk it up to another $hitty pre-delivery set-up from another lowsey Polaris Dealer! the Dealer should have adjusted your ETC BEFORE you received your quad. it never ceases to amaze me how lax the Dealers are when it comes to a proper set-up.

i picked-up my new 500EFI yesterday and thought the front tire looked low. sure as $hit only 3 PSI in the right front. both are supposed to be set a 5 PSI.

i questioned the Dealer the next day. he said the gauge on their air hose isn't that accurate.

OH, OK! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img]
