<p>My 2017 Polaris Ranger will not start below 50 degrees without
Ether if I use no ethanol gas. I use the cheapest unleaded
available and it starts and runs fine. Of course it is EFI. I
have worked on the small engine EFI in ATVs and I really do not
like them... I have no idea if the computer is working...<br>

<div dir="ltr">I have a JD Zero Turn with 27 hp. Briggs engine and
electric start. Anything around 45 to 50 degrees and it just
wouldn't start. It does not idle good either, but the book says
that is because of emissions control. My brother has a
Simplicity zero turn 3 years old and several times has tried to
start it in 40 degree and it just won't fire so it is not just
my mower. Both engines have fixed jets so no adjustment is
possible. It is possible other things could be wrong, but my
only other idea is to make sure it has fresh WINTER blend gas.

<div> Hi Farmer,<br>
Just a thought, my log splitter was hard to start in
cold weather, until I changed the hydraulic fluid from
the OEM fluid to transmission fluid,a whole world of
difference.<br>

<div dir="ltr">Hi farmer: I'd have to think you've
already been down this road, but, I'll say for the
record that I've had pretty decent luck
downloading manuals from the Briggs site. But I
haven't done it lately, and it's always 20-year
old stuff when I do. The other thing I'll
mention is the good old unlit propane torch in the
intake trick. That's my go-to when they're almost
trying to start. There's spark and fuel but the
modern carburetors are set lean for emissions and
it just seems that the choke doesn't quite get the
mixture rich enough.

<div>We have a log splitter a couple of years
old that has a OHV CR950 Briggs. It only has
a few hours on it but has become quite hard
to start (recoil start). It is way too
recent for my knowledge base... It seems
that most things are these days. Apparently
the OHV Brigg's have a cam bump "compression
relief" I also understand that there is an
important valve adjustment procedure that
can normally improve starting problems. We
can't find a site that gives a clear and
understandable explanation of the procedure.</div>
<div>Does anyone know of a site with a clear
description of how to do it? It will usually
start if it is sitting in the sun and the
temp is at least 50... Yesterday at 45
degrees it "ALMOST" started 837 times... It
keeps firing enough to keep you trying and
trying...<br>
