T-boss 410, I have no idea. The service manual said 1400 kPa. 1400 kPa/6.895 kPa/psi = 203 psi (not 217, my bad). I'm already operating way above my pay grade on this. I have gone above and beyond to fix it, but now I'm ready to move on, cut my losses, pick myself up, dust off, and load the SOB on a trailer.

Current status: On 3/7, I put everything on the vehicle back together and took it to San Marcos Powersports, a Massimo dealer. As anticipated, they are backed up with repairs for weeks and are having labor issues just like most small businesses these days.

Prior to packing it up, I did a proper compression test and got 105 psi. So, this still seems low. Here's the summary of it all now: cranks and will not start, has initial one time fire at beginning, throws P0201 (injector malfunction) and P0351 (ignition coil issue) codes, has spark and fuel, ignition coil and pickup coil have good resistance readings as does the stator, no visible mechanical issue - everything engages and turns, and wire harness is delivering voltage to ignition related circuits. ECU function and electromechanical ignition triggering cannot be verified with my current toolset. So, I have punted.

Just for fun if your compression is as low as you say check the valve adjustments a tight valve could cause the loss of compression and also cause it not to start.

Update on my T-Boss 410: It has been a San Marcos Powersports for over a month. They started evaluating it about 2 weeks ago. The mechanic there determined that it has a broken crankshaft chain. This explains the low compression readings and the computer confusion. Parts are now on order and an end to this saga is in sight. It'll cost me less than I thought, but it is still quite a chunk of change nonetheless.

More to come...

      I've got a 2023 UT400 (bought from tractor supply) and I've been beating my head against a wall with it.
      It will start and idle perfectly. The second I touch the throttle it sputters and dies.
      I've checked that the fuel pump is working  (it is).
      I've replaced the injector, throttle position sensor, O2 sensor, and intake air sensor. All with no change.
       
      I've just taken a look a the schematic, and there is a crank position sensor as well.

      Could this be the source of my troubles? If so, where is this thing located? I can't seem to find it on any drawings from the parts suppliers.

      I have a 2017 Intimidator XD4 800cc 4x4.  It will run great and then it's like it goes into safe mode and only runs on 1 cylinder.  It's not fouling out the plug when it happens.  Some times when I stop and restart it, it works fine.  First I thought it was a spark issue, then a fuel issue, but I feel like it's a short in the wiring some place.

      Quick question about replacing the plug.  One of the prongs pulled out, so I'm thinking it will be an easy fix to connect the old cord with a new plug but I'm unsure about the specs.  15amp 125v?  Is it more complicated than that?  I do plan to buy a plug that's water tight.
      Thanks in advance!
