The engine was extremely difficult to start. The throttle cable was disconnected. Hooked it up. Moved throttle to 3/4 open. Started almost instantly. I always start at between 1/2 and 3/4 throttle, then pull it bact to idle.

After it starts, you immediately pull back to idle to let the oil circulate. When I got my first diesel-powered sailboat with a diesel. I didn’t know to do this and sometimes had long cranks to start. Now it catches almost immediately. Jack BrennanFormer C&C 25 Shanachie, 1974 Bristol 30 Tierra Verde, Fl.
