Guest j_mchattie Posted October 18, 2005 Report Posted October 18, 2005 Hard starting? Is it trying to start? Does it sound like loss of compression? Does it turn over quickly or slowly? More detail please Quote
Guest donny011 Posted October 19, 2005 Report Posted October 19, 2005 it sounds as if it is just about to start but just wont catch .however if on a slight incline it will start once i roll forward while cranking and bumpstart at the same time.also it will bump on a slope no bother when hoti dont think its compression as it starts fine when coldmany thanks donny Quote
