Title: Longer to start after mudding
Post by: Jakethesnake73 on July 19, 2015, 12:53:00 am

My exhaust was under water but i dont belive the manifolds or anything were but it takes longer to start after i went mudding. Maybe 2-3 seconds to start rather than just having to tap the starter like before

If check for water/ mud under the distributor cap.
Does the starter turn over at its normal cranking speed?
How does it run once it starts?
