That sounds like a different issue. I would bring it back to the dealer.

Check the voltage from the battery should 13+ (anything below 12 is no good) some other guys have had problems on here you may want to use the search feature.

it'll get better with more hours on the motor i have like 4 or 5 on mine now and its starting to get better. If you stall it try pull starting it, it will fire right up rolled it down hill a few times when i stalled it and it fired after it turned over like twice.
