make sure the gas is on reserve cause that kinnda thing happened to me. The reserve level is real high on them. The motors are like the same as warriors and there know for reliablity so its probably not a big problem.

Parking Brake...i know on raptors, if there on, they won't move good, and they'll sputter like crazy and stall out...its so you don't forget its on and take off and burn it up

what octane are you running in it? Mine does that when i run super, it dosn't need it because the compression is so low, throw some regular gas in there and it should clear right up.

We had the same fuel related issue with my wifes raptor 350. Low octane fuel is the way to go.
