I would like to know if anyone with a 2004.5 700 efi sp. is haveing the same problem. You can ride for about 2 hr's and then it will die . It act's like it runs out of gas. let it set about an hr' and it will start and run just fine. for awhile then it will do it agin. didn't have a very good weekend. let me tell ya them 700's are heavy when they are upsidedown on top of you. now my holiday weekend off of work got extended by a couple of day's, doctors orders

 

Ouch! I hope you are ok. Sounds like you could have a clogged tank vent??

 

Yes....Open the gas cap next time it does this and see/hear if there is the sound of air being released..................Caper...............

 

Did you check for oil in the airbox after the Quad was turned over?
Don't know how long ago this happened but did the oil level drop also?
Glad your not hurt too bad...............Caper...........

 

Yes, sounds like you're okay of you only need a couple days off work. Glad to hear that. No broken bones at least.

Definitely sounds like a tank venting problem. Or if not that, maybe the fuel pump is getting hot and shutting down until it cools off. My 800 has never shut down on its own.

 

next time it shuts down listen for the fuel pump when you try to star it. but i see you made another post so maybe you already found out it was the pump.

 

well I dont know. but when it act's up the fuelpump sounds like it's not pump'en like it should. It dont always do it. the last time we rode. we rode hard for hours and no problem's . So im going to replace the pump & the E.T.C and see what happens.

 

i would want to make sure b4 you replace it. why would you want to replace the etc as its adjustable and it wouldnt be that.
