my neibhor just bought a 2011 rincon today and let me just take it on a lil ride around our place. it was in auto and i was running about 15 or 20 mph and just let off the gas and it went dead didnt spit or sputter just coasted to a dead stop. started right back up and ran fine. just wondering is this common or is something up?

Loose battery connection, I can almost garantee it.

thats the truth i told my neibhor what yall said it prolly was and he didn beleave me till he saw the battery him self

it probally saved him $100 in gas and 3 hours total driving time because he was ready to take it to the dealership to have them look at it beeing its only 2 days old.

With the fuel injected all it takes is a small drop in voltage for a very short time and the fuel pump will stop pumping.
