Something I wanna know from Prairie 650 owner.

when you stop your engine do you hear a sound comming from the left of the engine near of the strap. It's like an electronic sound, like something is moving to a position.???

If it is a whine for about 3 seconds followed by a servo motor sound of about a second, it is normal. Somewhere in the owners manual it explains it a some sort of engine diagnostics?

I was told it was the fuel pump. My truck also whines for a couple of seconds after it's shut off.

I'm about 90% certain this is what you are hearing.
You will probably hear two sounds one is the engine braking servo disengaging or repositioning it's a short whine followed by a click. The second is a longer more quiet sound and that is the Fuel pump. These are both normal sounds. The only other electric sound I believe you'll here is the 2/4wd engagement servo but it is usually much harder to hear because the engine is usually running.
