Hi team, Back in with a 701 superjet that has a full battery but the cranking is slow. I've turned the motor by hand, battery leads get really hot. Any wisdom?
you have a hi resistance some were in starting circuit. check cable ends for corrosion. Check cable lugs for corrosion. It could also be starter solenoid in e box or a stuffed starter.
Thanks Flan, I'm on holiday so have sent it to Marine North in Whangarei. They can worry about it while I eat and drink. Whananaki based if anyone is close for a ride when its fixed. Still getting my legs as I haven't been on one on over ten years.
