The gas cap was changed out ( back ordered 4 weeks) and we brought it home yesterday. It starts immediately now, I just spent 1/2 hour ripping around our trails and it didn't act up once.
Not sure if this is a common problem or not but thought I would share it and hopefully the solution.

Thanks grumpybear. I remember reading somewhere else where somebody's 230l was bogging bad, and it turned out their gas cap hose was twisted closed.
