I have a 2005 Arctic cat m7 that has intermittent spark. Will run for about 3-5 seconds then shuts down . Pull plugs and no spark. Wait for 10-15 min and I got spark again and will run for the 3-5 seconds again. I have change the stator with a brand new rewound on from Rmstator. I have all the safety switches and kill switches un plugged. Have diamond drive and tail lights and hood wiring all unplugged. I have switched ecu and coil with known working ones and still same thing. Anyone have any ideas?

First and foremost RMS stators are JUNK!!!!

I would do ohms resistance on all the coils of the stator to determine if it is good, even if it is new.

Next I would test the TPS. If a TPS is failing it will do exactly what you are describing and start, run for a few seconds and die like you hit the kill switch.
