Hello, new member to the site but ive been ghosting the forums for a while now, glad to finally join. I have a 3 year old RTV 1140 with about 1750 hours on it that has recently started cutting out. After searching through the forums I couldnt find quite what I was looking for. When I stop to open gates and am on about a 8% grade the RTV is idling but has recently started cutting out while at low RPMs, the temperatures have been in the 60s and 70s so Im not looking at ice in the lines, all filters are new, so I cant seem to figure out what is going on. If I stomp on the gas it will prevent a stall when it starts chugging but Im out of the seat for long enough that I cant prevent it from happening. The RTV is operated about 4 hours a day and it stalls maybe 5 times every day now even at operating temps. Any advice on how I can fix this myself or do I need to have the stealership come and take a look? P.s. It has recently started pouring some black smoke on startup even though its a T4 motor (I dont think it has a dpf though that could get clogged). Thanks!!
