    Need some help with an AR5. Unit has been running perfect but all of a sudden after an hour or so of use the unit will shut itself down completely. It will not start immediately but after 5-10 minutes sitting it will start and run again for about same amount of time. We have checked all safety switches, voltage and changed relays and fuses, verified fuel delivery ect. Still have same issue, great unit if I can keep it running. Any and all suggestions appreciated!

    Possible vapor lock in fuel tank? Make sure cap is venting

    We had to replace the controller to solve that issue. We run 2- AR5's only had that problem with one in 11 years.

    Thank you for the reply's! Yes checked fuel cap. The controller was my concern and I was hoping someone else had the same issue. Again thanks!
