    I have a 2008 Polaris Sportsman 500 EFI Touring. I can't get it to run properly. It runs well after it heats up, but as soon as I turn it off again, it reverts to the previous issue of shutting off Constantly. I've taken it to an ATV mechanic who initially said it was the ECM, so I replaced it...
