Previously I posted that My Honda 2004 bf40,remote was hard to start when cold,then started fine after warm. Well after much discussion, the dealer replaced the SE-valve (starter enrichment) that fixed the problen for about a week. Now it's back to the original problem but worse. Takes about 8 cranks of the starter, of 4 second intervals before finally cranking. Only when cold, and it's not very cold here in Mississippi now. Just wondered how many others, are, or have experienced this problem with the newer model Hondas.

I have the same motor and year, I don't have the problem. Take the motor back and get it replaced, there is no need to accept a motor that obviously wasn't dialed in properly at the factory.
