I'm trying to trouble shoot why this motor isn't starting right away "like a car"?
I'm not too familiar with powered boats, but I saw an article of "using deep cycle vs starting battery" and the need for it because of the initial larger amps needed..
I think the guy put a deep cycle in there, because when I goto start it from cold, it acts like the battery or starter is dead/dying. Sometimes I'll hit the ignition button, and nothing, then I'll hit it again, or over and over and over (meanwhile no noise from the starter cranking) then I'll get a little RRRrr from the starter, then none, then some, then it'll kick off and start.
Ideas?
Thanks very much!
