Yeah, I dont know who your telling to get your facts straight! I know not to use throttle on fuel injection when starting. Charging battery cuz I ran it down trying to get it started. It was getting plenty of spark before it ran down. Never had this problem til cold weather set in, just odd. Gonna try new plug after I charge battery. Kinda crazy when you got $8K in a fuel injected quad that has starting issues and your other ones have no issues. LOL.
RaptorRandy is correct, the ECU on the Grizzly and the Raptor are different. You can see for yourself by going to Yamaha's website, click on the "Parts & Service tab". There are different ECU part numbers for these two quads, 1S3-8591A-00-00 for the Raptor and 3B4-8591A-00-00 for the Grizzly.

I was telling JLSparky to get his facts straight.
I suggested that you get an NGK CR8EIX irridium plug, 98% of the time that will cure your problem.
With the EFI if the quads not running you can pump on the throttle all you want and it won't do anything but once started in cold weather the fuel enrichment circut adds a good amount of extra fuel and if you throttle it up before it's warm it's going to foul the plug. I wasn't saying you didn't know what you were doing, I was trying to help you out.

And those are the ones that gassed them up when they were still on the fuel enrichment circut before the coolant temp comes up and fuel fouled the plug[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
A few isolated incedents does not constitute a known problem like that of the documented cold start issue with the Grizzley's
