| 998s starting problems
My 998s fe. will not start from cold, I have replaced the battery(GS) and plugs for NGK ones.The voltage on the new battery is 12.5v and when running it is 13.6v. All the engine will do is turn over and over, with the occasional backfire. It sometimes seems as if it wants to catch but doesn't. If I jump start it from an aux battery it will catch and start. Although when left idling the engine speed will drop from 1k rpm to 500rpm where the engine will stall. When ridden or from hot it will start on its own battery. This is becoming a pain as I can keep riding around with jumpleads!
Please help!! |
