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.

      I was randomly and briefly able to connect to my Coleman UTV 400s ECU the other day twice and haven't been able to since.  When I was able to access it, I found the following codes and wondered if anyone may know where I should start or what I should look at?  
      P0031 - O2 Sensor Heater Control Voltage Low
      P0107 - Manifold Absolute Pressure/Barometer Pressure Voltage Low
      P0113 - Intake Air Temperature Sensor Voltage High
      P0118 - Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor Voltage High
      P0650 - Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) failure

      Just picked up a Cub Cadet 500 that had shift issues (corroded fan gear) which I fixed. It also didn't seem to be running smoothly then all of a sudden it got worse. It seems to miss on both idle and when pushing the gas pedal to the floor and doesn't seem to be running at full power. I've been working with a local person who is walking me through some steps, but I'd like some input from this group as well. What I've done:
      - drained the fuel tank and replaced it with 93 octane fuel and added heet to help with any water problems.
      - replaced the fuel injector.
      - disconnected the battery (several times) to allow the module to reset.
      - set the valve clearance, both intake and exhaust, within specs ... intake was tight but exhaust seemed fine.
      - replaced the battery.
      - replaced the O2 sensor.
      Nothing has helped. Not sure what the next steps are, but would appreciate any expertise that can be offered here.

      I am going to replace the batteries in my E1. I am not interested in the high cost Lithium or the expensive 6 volt dry batteries.  I am considering four 12 volt deep charge marine batteries. I have a source for 810 amp units for about $100 each.  I have no worries about reprograming the charger because it went out a few years ago and I replaced it with generic golf cart charger. When I decide to do this, I'll keep you posted on the results.

      Is there a code reader available for the Coleman UTV 400?  I tried using the HUD ECU Hacker software and cables/adapters but no luck OBD to delphi 6 pin and KKL VAG as well as ELM327.  Will not connect.  I was able to get it to connect randomly a couple of times, but haven't been able to since.  I was able to clear and read the codes briefly.  I'm aware of the Tiny Scan 301 but it doesn't seem to be readily available.  There's a few out there but they are expensive.
