  2. Hello, I have issues with the starting of my Prairie. I live in a 4 season climate where it is really hard to get this to run and start when it is cold outside. (40 or below) During the summer months it runs great. From October to March it is a bear to start. I had this engine rebuilt a few years ago and the guy who did the engine work did a great job but did not know how to start my machine after finishing the work. He kept choking and using the throttle. Not sure if this has now screwed up the reason why I cannot get it start in the winter. My manual says that when you start this atv you just choke it from a cold start. Wait until the unit obviously is starting to overload with gas with choke on. After that when it kills turn the choke off and restart the atv by just giving it gas and it should run after that. Now again only during the cold months after being choked and kills. I try starting the quad with giving it some gas and will not start. Multiple times of restarting it it will eventually finally run again. Once it starts I have to keep my thumb on the throttle to keep it running or it will die and have to try starting it again numerous times. This has to be hard on my starter. What do I need to do to fix this like it was when I first bought this?
