I recently purchased a new Kubota RTV520. When i try to start it i have to do the cold start procedure every time. Once it is running for a few minutes i can restart it without any issues.
The cold start procedure is turn the key to start position and let the fuel injection system turn on and stop. Crank for 10 seconds and if the unit doesn’t start, turn off and repeat the process 30 seconds later.
If it hasn’t been used for a week and i try to start it i have to repeat the cold start procedure at least 3 times until i get a successful start.
The dealer says this is normal and its not a malfunction on the engine. I feel like its weird for a new machine to have this starting routine.
I live in south Texas so the weather is not extremely cold.
Is ANYBODY having this problem? I am contemplating returning the UTV but i want to know if this is a common problem with the new 520 model.
