| I have a friend having some problems with his 2010 Ranger 800. When it gets hot it will not restart but after it sits awhile it will start. I do no that some of these have a re=call on a wiring problem 1 connector being wired wrong or something like that. The dealer here tells them all they need is the computer reset but I believe that won't fix it either because it will happen again and again. Anybody else have this problem happen to them and if so what did you do to fix it? | |

| My cousin, Ranger Steve (on here), is having the same problem with his 2011 Ranger 800. Dealer told him it's getting vapor locked and Polaris is working on a software fix of some sorts if I'm not mistaken. Maybe he will chime in and explain further. Dealer said interim fix was to remove the seat when you turn it off so the engine will cool off faster. ![Starting 2010 Ranger 800 376308](https://2img.net/u/1913/21/04/90/smiles/376308.gif) He was working this through Bub's Cycle... maybe you could contact them for details. If not, let me know and I can get you his phone number. | |

| The service manager told me three weeks ago that Polaris is till working on the starting fix. Supposed to be available in a couple of months, whatever that means. Their suggestions are: If you're not going to start it within 5 minutes or after 30minutes dont turn it off, remove the seat while stopped to cool engine, use only premium gas and gas without ethynol. Also make sure the fuel pump stops running before turning the key from on to start and let the fan cut off before turning motor off. Doing these things make no difference other than letting the motor cool for 35 to 40 minute with seat off. I called Polaris this morning and they have no other answers. In other words, those of us who bought the ranger 800 in good faith of buying a reliable machine got screwed. We now own $12,000 paper weights. I personally will never recomend anybody to buy one. | |

| PS Yes Boltfan it is embarassing to have to pull off the seat every time you stop and have to wait fo it to decide to start again. | |
