Check all grounds at the batteries and starter cables, for that matter all
positive cables. Do not just look at them. Take them all off!! Clean the
contacts on all cables and battery terminals and your problem just might go
away. Having two bad starters is not likely. Good luck

Subject: [UnifliteWorld] Hard starting Detroits when warm

 

Hey All,

 

Like the title says, my Detroit 671's are VERY hard starting when warm.  As
in...one wouldn't even restart.  I had to go through the Ballard Locks this
weekend with just a Starboard engine. (NOT FUN)  My batteries are brand new
this season and I know they are fine.  Unless the block heaters are on (even
during the summer), the engines turn over extremely slow and are getter
harder to start.  But when they are fully warmed up they are nearly
impossible to start and the engines turn over very slowly.  My first thought
is that I either need to have my starters rebuilt or replaced.  Anyone have
any other ideas?

 

Thanks,

 

Kerry
