Longer to start after mudding
« 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?

Just to close up. My air cleaner had mud in it.
