Hi
So I test the GP, one is HS, (probably two with the n°6), it should be enough for start but the tension at the plug when warming is under 11v, is that normal ?

I have the impression that my starter doesn't take the speed necessary to start, my battery is new and I check the wire.
From where that could be from ?

Thanks

I would say yes. They draw a lot of current and will drop the voltage a little. You need pretty much all glow plugs working and the engine turning over quickly to expect it to start easily.

Failing starter motor? The original small Hitachi starters do not endure long cranking sessions well.

Default Starter issues, oxidizing, wires, etc

I broke teeth on flywheel thanks to a bad stupid starter OR BAD WIRING (?).
Careful with bad connections. LOL. Nice to have it running , right?
Enjoy the forum...and share pictures!
