I have a 2005 df 140 with about 850 hrs on it. Only had it for this summer. The engine always starts right up when cold with no problems. After running for a while then shutting off for a while it does not want to start right back up. Last time out I ran it for about an hour and stopped for an hour to fish. The engine took about 5 times of cranking before it finally started. Usually it does not take that long, but after it has run for a while it usually does not want to start right up. Any thoughts to what might be causing this?
