What should the rev limiter be on a Polaris Ranger?
The wire feed to the TPS (Throttle Positioning sensor) had a chafed spot I found when I went to inspect the TPS. I placed a piece of pipe insulation between the wiring and the Starter motor’s positive connection. It cleared up! Depending on ur machine, it should have a rev limiter, but its set at like 6300 rpms or so.
Can a Polaris Ranger run at even RPMs?
When acceleration is applied it staggers and farts, until you let off the throttle, then it will run fine at an even RPMs until accelerator is pushed. It will always start right up if it dies and will idle. And run when stopped, in neutral or in gear and rolling. I’m wondering too .. is there a governor that keeps RPM’s down for over reving?
