Cold Start vs Hot Start
Cold Start vs Hot Start
Hi,
Lately my FXD is having an issue on Hot Starts..... was rained in for the last three days went to start and as usual on a cold start if fires almost instantly, 1-2 cranks.... But on a hot start, after lets say a 20-30 minute stop (after 40 minute or longer ride). It's usually on a second and sometimes third attempt of 3-4 cranks each.. you can hear the starter start to Labor. Today after Lunch I thought it wasn't going to fire up at all.
Any tips or ideas? Could it be a plug issue? It's an early 09 and has had the 1K service... only 3.5K on it.
Thanks in advance....
John
