Long crank times
Any of you guys been able to shorten the legnth of time the starter turns over befor the engine fires up? Mine cranks for about two seconds befor it fires. I am toying with the idea of going to an air starter only having the starter run that long will require a lot of air.
Any ideas will be appreciated.
