My 2018 Ranger 500 has an issue. When I decelerate, it dies,and takes considerable winding on the starter to get it going. If you wait 5 minutes or more, it fires right up. I put an aftermarket primary clutch on it, didn't change anything. Thinking about trying a new belt and new secondary clutch. Any thoughts?
For by grace are you saved by faith, and not of yourselves, it is the gift of God.

Sounds like a fuel pump issue. They are in the gas tank and cooled by the fuel. It does not take long to ruin a pump in the summer heat with low fuel in the tank. Simple fix but a little spendy. I fuel mine up when it gets to a half a tank and have gotten 15000 miles out of a fuel pump.
I can't believe that cop put me in the back seat when I clearly called shotgun.

MT… and his ranch have a plethora of Polaris Rangers and they work em, and fix em. I’d give his words weight GRP. Osku

You can buy an aftermarket fuel pump off of Amazon for around 60 bucks. Takes 5 minutes to change out. Ol dad

Had a Yamaha do the same thing. Would idle fine, and choke out when you pushed on the gas. It was the gas cap was the gas cap. Three Philips head screws on the bottom and a filter under it. Took a tooth pick and cleaned the vent holes in the cap out and fixed the problem of vapor locking This^^^***
