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...

      Hi everyone
      Recently purchased a 2020 T-Boss 410 in what appears to be good condition
      First time with this machine – I also have a diesel Kawasaki Mule which so far seems a better machine
      It didn’t start and idle well particularly from cold when I got it and sudden take off ( now solved with new clutch parts ) was all or nothing !
      I have replaced the idle valve, throttle position sensor, had the injector professionally checked ( ok) and also the pressure sensor this is a fuel injection engine, also plug and lead etc!
      It still doesn’t run well and when starting I have to hold revs for a while as it wont idle but stall, thereafter its better and I have rebooted the ecu which has improved it
      When I go to start it clicks as if there is a hydraulic lock and wont return after two or three attempts it then does turn over and start bit I need to give it a bit of throttle to start – is this normal ?
      Is there adjustment for the air idle valve ?
      The engine seems rough and with vibration compared to other engines I have been used to but some say this is normal?
      I haven’t changed the Lambda sensor yet, anyone know how much difference this might make ( I have a new Bosch universal to fit )
      Any advice very much appreciated, thanks

      I believe the T Boss was worked on by the previous owner

      I have an Axis 500 4x4 UTV that I was given.  It looks like an almost new machine with 39 hrs on it however it was apparently under water from the hurricane . I have no spark at the plug. I have replaced the plug, the plug wire, & the stator so far. Can anyone advise me of what i need to check and or replace to get this thing running? Any advise would be greatly appreciated. 
                                    Thank You,

      starts up you have keep rpms up for 5 minutes till it warms up then runs fine. But if it stalls wont start unless you unplug fuel pump and hold it to the floor till it starts then plug pump back in and run it till it warms up then it is fine all day.

      spits fuel from breather hose into the air cleaner and then down into carb.  What’s causing this ??
