  Danielle MarshallAug 12, 2025
  A Polaris Utility Vehicle engine may backfire due to several reasons: a weak spark from the spark plug (inspect, clean, and/or replace the spark plugs); an incorrect spark plug gap or heat range (set the gap to specifications or replace the plugs); old or non-recommended fuel (replace with fresh, recommended fuel); water present in fuel (replace with fresh recommended fuel); or loose ignition connections (check all connections and tighten). For incorrectly installed spark plug wires, incorrect ignition timing, or mechanical failure, it is recommended to see your Polaris dealer.

  If your Polaris Utility Vehicle's engine turns over but doesn't start, begin by checking if you're out of fuel and refuel if necessary. Inspect and clean or replace a clogged fuel filter. Drain the fuel system and refuel if water is present in the fuel. Replace old or non-recommended fuel with fresh, recommended fuel. Inspect and replace fouled or defective spark plugs. Also, inspect plugs if there is no spark. Recharge the battery to 12.8 VDC if the battery voltage is low. If these steps don't resolve the issue, it is recommended to see your Polaris dealer.

  Your Polaris Utility Vehicle engine might stop or lose power for several reasons. First, check if you're out of fuel and refuel if needed. Inspect and replace any kinked or plugged fuel vent lines. If there's water in the fuel, replace it with new fuel. Inspect, clean, or replace fouled or defective spark plugs, and ensure the spark plug gap and heat range are correct. Check for loose ignition connections and tighten them. Recharge the battery if the voltage is low. Replace incorrect fuel with fresh, recommended fuel. Inspect and clean or replace a clogged air filter. If the engine is overheated, clean the radiator screen and core, and clean the engine exterior. For worn or defective spark plug wires or other mechanical failures, it is recommended to see your Polaris dealer.

  If the park brake engine limiting feature on your Polaris Utility Vehicle fails to disengage, first ensure the park brake lever is in the forward-most position. If the problem persists, and temporary continued operation is necessary, disconnect the connector. Then, promptly see your dealer for service due to a possible park brake connector malfunction or switch movement or failure.
