Fuel issue?

Trying to diagnose an issue with a 2009 Polaris 600 CFI that is hard to start when cold. When the sled is in the heated garage it starts on the second pull. When the sled sits outside in the cold it starts very hard (multiple pulls and gassing it). Has anyone else experienced this with the CFI’s. Fuel filter (know issues) or fuel pump?
Thanks

Yes very common problem with 2 strokes when compression drops off do to worn rings, how many miles you got on her?

Have you replaced the fuel filter recently? Very important on those sleds, there is a napa alternative I believe guys on HCS are running them for less than $20.

Check tps also. If possible check one that starts first pull and runs good. Factory, the tps is all over the place on the CFI sleds. The factory spec is a little vague and wide ranged.

Should start 1 pull in heated garage, 2 pulls at most outside when cold.

if it sits for any length of time a dozen pulls to recharge the fuel system can be expected.

once started runs nice? warm restarts all good?

All mine have started in 2 pulls after summer storage. 58 psi fuel pressure doesn't take long to get fuel to injectors.
