500 EFI starting issue

if its cold they still will crank over a few times before running. The EFI advantage is you do not have to stand there baby sitting a choke while the motor warms up.
Remember you still should let the motor warm up. A EFI does not warm up the motor oil any faster than a carb. It will start and go on a cold day but running a cold motor before warming up the oil is not good, EFI or Carb.

It takes a few seconds while tuning the engine over for the crank sensor to send a signal to the ecm and also goes automatically into a "waste fuel,waste spark" rich mode for a few seconds after cranking until the map sensor responds properly and then maintains an even idle.This is a normal feature of this model.

Thanks guys. this is my 1st efi. 3rd Sportsman. I still think it turns sharper than my 06 500 but maybe my 06 did'nt turn as it should. After I owned it a few weeks I noticed the frame was slightly 'tweaked' (or bent) in the front. Nothing in steering seemed damaged so I never thought anymore of it.
