Hi all. I’ve read a lot of BMC1500 threads, but not really found what I think I need.
Its an 80s boat and with the original BMC 1500. It’s a good engine. In that I’ve had her 5 years with no problems. But the motor has become very hard to start in cold weather. Never failed, but I’m cranking for a long time to get it going. Once she is running all is ok. The starter battery is on a mini solar panel FYI - so not flattened it yet.
What should I be doing to improve cold weather starting? Was wondering wether it’s worth new glow plugs. What else might I do?
thanks!
Jak.
