Went for a country cruise today, pulled over to get a drink and shut the machine off. When I tried to restart it, it would crank but not start. It acted like a fuel issue. We got it picked up and trailered home. When we got back I tried starting it. Fired up no problem. WTF? Any ideas? I did search but there’s nothing exact.

Hi.
Idk.. few things to check before digging deeper.

Ground issues cause all kinds of issues. Check battery, engine, and frame ground.

If no spark. Make sure red wires on the coil have 12v.

A no spark rules out a fuel issue for now. Need to fix no spark before looking at a fuel related issue.

Any flashing codes on the display?

Well, good luck.

No codes. Now it fires up every time. I’m hearing the fuel pump. However, when it wouldn’t start I don’t think I was. Leaning that direction. Problem is that it’s running fine now.
