Mule runs fine for awhile but sometimes when climbing up a grade it will act like it wants to stall. It only does it for about 15 seconds, only on an uphill grade then it will start running fine again. I have been living with this for a few years now and have done the following:
Empty tank and refill
Replace fuel filter

Checked fuel pump per service manual

Removed carburetor and took to motorcycle mechanic who cleaned it, checked pilot, float, etc.
Ran seafoam thru system
Tonight it started doing something different. It would not idle at times.
So now I have idle issues and issues at top speed. I did notice a nick in the insulation on the coil wire and I taped it up. I am wondering if that or a coil issue may be my problem. I don't ride much in water but the mule has been exposed to the elements. So would a bad coil or wire do something like this?
Thanks for any help

I have a 2011 Mule 610 with only 36 hours on it. I too have just started having an issue where when I'm climbing up a hill, running full throtle, it acts like it's starved for fuel and bogs down. I've replaced the fuel filter, checked the air filter, drained the carburator, and it's still doing it, so I'm interested if you get any feedback. I only run non-ethynol gas. I just bought this a couple of months ago for hunting. I haven't had any issues with it at deer camp. Brought it home for a while to clean it up and use it around the neighborhood. At camp, I've never ran it full throttle, so I never experienced the issue. Since bringing it home, it does it everytime I'm running it somewhat full throttle, going up a hill.

      So I finally got my Quad Gear cab enclosure after waiting out the backorder for three months and to say it's been a huge disappointment is a pretty big understatement. I think mostly because I could make it work, if not for one major issue. The windshield is right next to impossible to see out of. It's a real headscratcher because the side and rear windows are okay. It's not high quality 30 or 40 gauge marine vinyl but I have Quad Gear's stand-alone winshield so I knew it wasn't the best in terms of visibility, but definitely doable for the price.  Incredibly, the side and rear windows of the cab eclosure are just as clear as the stand-alone windshield. And the windshield on the enclosure is like 50 percent worse than the stand-alone. It's the same company! I don't get it. If it had just been the rear windshield that was that bad I would have kept it. There are some creases and wrinkles here and there, but I've been using the stand-alone  windshield for the past three months so it's good enough not to have to shell out $600 plus for the stock hard windshield. I'd put visibility at about 65- 70 percent. The wife hates it though, which is a pretty big negative. In any case, my original plans were to have an upholsterer change the crappy vinyl out for the high quality stuff and I even sent it to a guy who ended up flaking out on me and refusing to do it. He said he didn't want to charge me $400 for something I paid $200 for.  Long story, short, I decided to return it and just get the insanely expensive Kawasaki enclosure next winter since the frigid temps here are about to start climbing in a couple weeks anyway. I first put it on just to see how it would look (I took pics of course) and found that it didnt even seal 100 percent and made it drafty inside the cab. So make that two major issues. At least with the stock enclosure everything will be top flight. Doors will be nice too.

      Recently, my unit Axis 500 (2020) will only go into reverse and neutral. I am not able to get high or low. The engine itself sounds fine and I do not have other issues on this unit. I change the engine oil but have not yet changed the gear oil.
      Before this happened I occasionally encountered issue where going from reverse to high gear, it would grind some and i had to reposition to shift into high gear. I also for last couple weeks heard a squeaking sound. I couldn't tell what it was. Was looking for a grease point I missed.
      The unit has around 70 hours and is kept in the garage.
      Anyone else encounter this type of scenario? Any suggestions on troubleshooting would be appreciated. Thanks.

      Was using the machine all day to haul wood...no issues until the end...
      When I try to start it, the dash lights come on but starter does not...seems like no power to the starter.
      It is in park, but when I put the brake on to start, it registers N.
      Won't start in neutral either...
      Tried rocking it, did not help...
      Help...
