I have a problem maybe similar to the one below on the forum that like him is driving me crazy. Mule seems to run fine except sometimes when I am climbing a hill it wants to die out just about the time I reach the top. Yes the tank is full when this happens. I have drained the tank, putting new fuel in and fuel additive, new fuel filter, spark plug, checked wiring and even had a motorcycle carburator friend disassemble and clean the carburator (he had his own shop, never seen anyone so particular about cleanliness), also checked to make sure the gas cap vent worked. The mule has about 425 hours on it and I have never adjusted the valves so maybe that is it. Would valves cause an issue like this? I checked the fuel pump to make sure it was working, seemed to be, did not replace. I have a factory manual I payed dearly for and done everything per the manual. I have no way to get the mule to a shop, live in the Appalachian mountains beyond the boonies and really love my mule but it needs to be dependable. Breaking down could mean a very long walk home or worse. I keep her close by the house these days but don't want to. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yes I am overdue. I have adjusted valves on older inline 6 engines. Had to do them hot so it was always a race to get them done before things cooled off. Will break out the manual and see how to do it. Thanks for the reply!

      Older Landmaster LM 650 Fuel Problem
      By Ed Michael
      My older LM 650 is blowing fuel into the air cleaner.  Any idea on what would cause this?  It is the Suzuki motor.  Not sure what model year it is.

      2013 hisun 700 will not run, cranks fine
      By Mike Jenkins
      I have a 2013 Hisun with a 686 Yamaha engine.
      I purchased it from an individual and it ran fine as long as the battery was full.
      I replaced the stator and now it will not start (run).  It cranks fine, has fuel pressure, but will not fire up.  I replaced the coil, no luck there.
      a technician told me that it was the wrong stator and wants a mint to replace it.
      the wires all plugged in when I installed the stator.

      2021 Massimo MSU 800 will not run above 20 MPH
      By SteveS
      While driving the MSU 800, it runs good but it lately it will not go over 20 MPH. The side by side will hesitate when it reaches 21 MPH, but it will run good under 20 MPH. What is the issue?
