Have you done any work to it yet? What color are your fuel lines? Is the key clean?

 

[mikidymac]

Can you tell us the model name?
Just off the bat I would say fouled sparkplugs.

Well poop! That’s a DI as in Direct Injected and one of the hardest to diagnose. I would start with two new spark plugs and see if that fixes it. Only use NGK ZFR4F-11 plugs and absolutely nothing else. Whatever you do don’t keep riding it as it won’t get better.

I suggest replacing the two fuel filters before doing anything as they can cause this too and the $800 fuel pump to go out.

Well thanks for the bad news but also thanks for the advice

Ok. I replaced the plugs and for the fuel filters
I seen one but when I gave the guy the part number he said it didn’t pull up on his computer meaning someone switch out the original, well when change plugs notice they had a lot of carbon on them , talked to some and they say that’s a sign of bad gas. So I put plugs in and it will idle but not for long I need some help here please I’m not a mechanic but I can handle instructions and my brother is a some what mechanic. Well any was told to run out gas have in it and run 91 octane instead of 87 octane. I have no clue on what or why this doing this so all help is appreciated thanks

 

[mikidymac]

Changing octane won’t make any difference.

 

[Juniorslaton]

Sooo.... what do you think it is ? I remember you saying mine is direct injection and it is harder to diagnose the issue so what can I do?

 

[Juniorslaton]

Changing octane won’t make any difference.

Well I appreciate your response but I ask you another question and you left me hanging, but I found the issue and am willing to share it if any one has the same problem I did. You won’t believe me on what it was.
