2017 Massimo MSU500 Thermostat Malfunction
Joe Breaux replied to Joe Breaux's topic in Massimo UTV SxS Forum
You , my friend, are one of the lucky few ..Most of us Massimo/Hisun owners have suffered the chronic issues with no support from Massimo whatsoever..Mine is now. Reliable ....but it took some effort and $$$$.. -
Well thank you. I am retired now....actually came out of "retirement" to help T/S Chino units for a friend....turned into full time. We had Massimo. Went to the INDY and ORLANDO power sports and met the folks. They actually had the b---s and gave out our shop landline number for T/S help for dogs. I've seen some of your posts...you sound AOK. I have had a time with this old body. My lady in white on my right shoulder has always done me good. Better stop before it gets really deep. Ben

2017 Massimo MSU500 Thermostat Malfunction
Joe Breaux replied to Joe Breaux's topic in Massimo UTV SxS Forum
We eliminated the thermostat and according to Hisun back when we were pulling our hair out with overheating, their rep told us they stopped using thermostats and relied on electric fan to control warm up. 5 years now mine has none. At all.....it works here..but we don't have snow and below zero temps to deal with. Takes a little longer to warm up but has never overheated again. -
I sure wish you had been around back when I was fighting with mine .I was at the mercy of the only mechanic in my state that would work on these..He was good but slow as paint drying. I learned a lot from him and have managed to keep mine going since. Glad to see you taking the time to help this guy.. We need more members like you.. Thanks from all of us dumbazzes that bought Massimo/ Hisun

Sounds like my Massimo...it was in the shop so much , it was like they owned it and I was just borrowing for a weekend..But Massimo never paid the warranty claims..not one.

Hondas seem to be the most reliable..if you want it for working, I would look at Hondas -

Misfire and strong sulfur smell from exhaust
Joe Breaux replied to Homeowner A's topic in Coleman UTV SxS Forum
Got me..if it was running rich it should smoke black.and it shouldn't smell like sulphur..if it has exhaust pressure there no restrictions. Good fuel...I'm out of ideas. Pull the spark plug..if it's wet or black it's flooding. Should be a dry tan color -

Any oil leakage? -

Joe Breaux replied to Homeowner A's topic in Coleman UTV SxS Forum
Cats don't work like that..what kind of fuel are you using? Old ? Any additive in it? Like octane booster? Should you be running premium? Put you hand behind outlet, feel pressure? If it's weak, there may be a blockage. Any smoke on start ? -

Joe Breaux replied to Smittay's topic in UTV General Discussion
Going out of business? Sounds suspicious .That's a big rebate..read details carefully -
Usually when they. Stick, it's closed and stays closed

Since it's designed to go thru mud and water, I can't see how you can hurt it .Just don't spray into the air filter box.I pressure was my UTV and Atvs after each use to prevent corrosion

Predator 670 manual oil pressure gauge
Joe Breaux replied to Jim Kessell's topic in American Landmaster UTV SxS Forum
There should be oil pressure there to trigger the light so I don't see why you can't tap that for mechanical style gauge
