my 2012 570 rzr won't start. I have and smell gas, I have arc at spark pulg. but all it will do is turn over. rode all day got back to camp hour later went to start it and it took a few min. to start, got up the next morning all it would do it turn over. any Ideas?

also, time before I went riding every time I would stop my temp. gage would be 210 or 220 then 10 min. later go to start it and it would just turn over. If let the fan run till the temp. got to 180 it would start, any Ideas on this one?

Try checking compression, should be 80 to 120 if I remember correctly; check airbox for a blocked or collapsed air filter.

I don't think the 2012 model has a Throttle Position Sensor?

So I got my rzr back, apparently my valves need to be adjusted. The intake valves had 0 clearance between the can and the bucket. Easy fix with service manual, I'm going to part a video on how to do it on youtube this week. I'll post the link soon. Polaris said I only had 40 psi of compression, needs to be 80 to 120. They also said the circuit breaker behind the seat is bad causing my fan to run intermittently.

The gauge cluster;if it is has set a code. Toggle the mode button till it shows CK ENG ,press and hold button and the code will come up. 3 sets of numbers are shown. If there is more than one code release and push again to get the others.

so is this something that happens a lot with the 570s? they suck dust in the intake?
if so, whats the best way to stop it? swamp mine about 4 months ago had it serviced all was good they said compression was a little low but still in specs. but, it's looking like they will have to rebuild the top end, but, still waiting to see for sure.

Not just dust. The 2013's have a crappy intake design between the airbox and the external opening on the driver's side. Any water/mud thrown on the connection gets sucked in and thrown onto the top of the filter; if there's any gap, or the filter gets too blocked and collapses, the mud goes straight into the cylinder.

See the thread "DUSTED" also. http://www.rzrforums.net/rzr-570-specific-discussion/110139-dusted.html

See pictures in the 'INTAKE MOD" threads.

Payne, Check out my thread on dusted and new air filters in the 570 section. You have multiple options but the $20 uni filter that I use inside the air box after the paper filter is the easiest way to protect your engine from the poor polaris paper filter. If you want more check out the threads were I have added a fleetguard opti air system.
