If I turn the key back to the off position and then try it again, it starts right up. I have heard that this could be due to a "dead spot" on the starter and that I shouldn't worry about it. It has done this randomly for the past 5 years (as long as I have had the rig). Does anyone else have this problem and is it something I should worry about? Thanks! Marty 91 Carat |
