Got a question for you water rideing guys... when i get my rhino in water over the wheels or hit a deep hole hard and get it wet, My engine sputters for a few minutes afterward... Going to get me some di electric and put on the plug wire and try that.. What do you deep water guys do to keep them running??

i'm not a deepwater guy, but water might be grounding out your ignition coil. i would suggest you re-mount it at a "higher" location. it is located on the driver side of the engine near the seat frame.

ok....the plugs by the passenger seat will get water in them..pull apart and completely fill with dielectric then push together...it will force it out the back of the plug too then it will be water proof!!
