Why does my Polaris BRUTUS Utility Vehicle engine stop or lose power?
- J
  Juan MasseyAug 16, 2025
  If your Polaris Utility Vehicle engine stops or loses power, several factors could be responsible. Using poor quality or incorrect fuel can cause this issue, so replace it with the recommended fuel. A clogged fuel filter or air filter can also lead to power loss, so replace them. Water in the fuel is another possibility; replace the fuel with new fuel. Additionally, a kinked or plugged fuel tank vent line can cause these symptoms, so inspect and replace it if necessary. Other potential causes include being out of fuel, so refuel; low battery voltage, so recharge the battery to 12.8 VDC; or an overheated engine, so clean the radiator screen and core, clean the engine exterior, and operate at a lower load.

  Robert MasonAug 25, 2025
  If your Polaris Utility Vehicle's engine turns over but doesn't start, several issues could be the cause. You might be out of fuel, so refuel the vehicle. The fuel filter or water separator could be clogged, in which case you should replace it. A clogged air filter can also prevent starting, so replace that as well. If there's water in the fuel, drain the fuel system, refuel, and replace the fuel filter/water separator. Old or non-recommended fuel can also be a culprit; replace it with fresh, recommended fuel. Also, low battery voltage can prevent the engine from starting, so recharge the battery to 12.8 VDC. Other potential issues include a defective glow plug (inspect and replace), a defective stop solenoid (replace), or a defective fuel pump (replace).
