Excessive cranking to start


Recommended Posts

For many years now I have had difficulty starting my 6, especjally when it is hot or if it has been unused for a week or so.

 

I always thought it was down to the injectors bleeding back and the excessive cranking was needed to fill the lines again.

 

NOT SO

 

Last week the starter motor sounded noisier and slower then normal so I decided to swap it .

 

What a transformation,instant starting !!!!

 

I suspect that the excessive current draw on the starter may have interupted the ignition system or pump ?

 

Cheers
