Hopefully someone has some insight to a possible problem I have been having.
Bought a 2014 Rancher 4×4 footshift this summer new from the dealer. I don’t ride a ton, so I have only put about 20 some odd hours on it since I bought it end of August. The issue I am having is starting the ATV after it has been sitting outside overnight the past couple of times. It has only gotten down to maybe low 30’s, and when I go to start it in the morning it takes 3 tries pressing the starter button before it fires up. Being fuel injected I would think it would start up easier, but maybe this is just how the machine is. Since I bought it I have replaced the engine oil and filter and changed the spark plug. For oil I am using AMSoil 0w-40. Battery was tested at the local auto store and they said it was good. I also have it on a trickle charger when not in use. I am a bit concerned that if it is having trouble starting now, it will be even tougher to start in the dead of winter. It is still under warranty so I will probably call dealer and see if they will look at it, but I wanted to get some opinions on here before I do that.
