1478, Starting Issues
Posted by eclipse_gs_1512, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM
I don't really have a lot of time to search right now...but I wanted to get some opinions...
here's the problem...the morning after it's been a relatively cold night, the gst doesn't want to start. It will turn over and sputter a little bit and then stall. Then when I go to start it back up...it fires up right away. It only happens in the morning...never during the middle of the day or at night. And it's only started happening since it's been getting cooler at night.
I just changed the spark plugs about a month ago...so I know it's not that.

Pull one spark plug and make sure it is gapped to 28

Possible moisture in the plug wire caps. Clean them with electronic cleaner then put dielectric grease in them.

Or get some new wires. Even stockers'll do.
