i have a 2011 hisun ys 400  idles high,once in awhile, runs horrible under load. iv'e put several differant carbs on it , cleaned the gas tank , took off the vaccum fuel pump and put  an 

electric fuel pump.  no change HELP 

this is a carburated engine, but was wondering is there any electrical components that meter the fuel flow,  like  mass air flow senser or something like that could be causing the fuel delivery

problem.

ps i have owned this rig since it was new , and haven't had a full  year of flawless riding.

 

oh and bought it from menards and told me i was stuck with it.

I have the same one (Menards' Yardsport 400). Mine has been running great for years. Put it up in the shed for the winter. Spring comes and it won't start. I figured it was probably stale gas (sat for 6 months) although I had been doing this every year previously with no problem. So, just in case, Drained the gas & refilled with fresh; pulled the plug > good compression; good spark. Cranks fine. Pulled the air filter element > clean. Sprayed starter fluid into the filter housing > still not a pop.
Fuel filter looks dry. Does it get "filled" after starting or ?  I'm gonna set up a fuel container on the roll bar so it provides gravity fuel pressure and try that. Anyone have other suggestions?

OK, I put a PLASTIC container up on the roll bar with duct tape and filled it with gas. Put a nozzle from my aquarium supplies in the bottom. Ran a hose directly to the carb, bypassing the fuel pump and fuel filter. With gravity as the "pump" I tried to start it and it caught and ran after 2 cranks! I visually verified that the fuel pump was pumping (spurting gas out) and caught the gas in a container. I let it warm up a bit, shut it off, and put everything back as it should be. It then started right up (and has several times over a week, since)! So it's back to normal and I have no idea why it wouldn't start.

Stuck float or trash blocking line?

I'm gonna say that a "stuck float" is the best possible answer. The pressure from the gravity feed was likely enough to push open the float valve.

      2015 Massimo stalled and wont start. oil, new plug, getting gas verified. cranks but does not start
      By Tim n Deb
      Riding out today it acted like it ran out of gas,  stalled and died and would not start.   Towed back to house,  New  plug added this past month,  plenty of oil, getting plenty of gas, battery cranks good.   Trys to kick in and starts but doesnt.   Two days prior while sitting at a idle it died.  Added gas and it started did my ranch chores with it.  But just now it stalled out cranks but will not start.   Tried to find if fault codes came up on the clock like manual says but not sure I am doing that right.  Any and all help apprecated.  Thank you

      Oil change
      By Joe Breaux
      Decided to do an oil change on the Massimo ...drained oil, screen was very clean even tho oil wasn't.  Then went to remove old filter.. holy crap ..I tried every tool I have, could not budge it..Went to store and got one of the end cap type..fit nice and tight, put a 1/2 in drive ratchet on it..nope..not moving.  Put a 18 on breaker bar o. It. The inside of the removal tool broke off!!  Had to weld it back together. Put a pipe on the bar for more leverage.  Finally broke it loose..
      I have never seen a filter in my 55 yrs of working on engines so tight..And i was the one who put it on 2 yrs ago.  JUST HAND TIGHT!

      By BigWave
      I turned off the key and then tried to start it a minute later and it would not start. I changed out the fuel filter and the injector. still nothing. if i have the injector pulled out and close to the hole the injector will spray fuel into the hole and it will run but the minute you put the injector in it will die. any idea's please

      Identify this part help needed
      By Wolfpaak
      I think this part is causing a high idle problem(4000 rpm at start up) in my 04 R4 Joyner. I took it out and cleaned it and the problem went away. I just went out to start my SXS and it's idle jumped up to 4 grand again. Can someone tell me what this part is called so I can search for a new one. Or can you point me towards a source. 
      Thanks in advance.
