Joy, what you describe (runs for 10 seconds and then turns off) sounds like you are not getting ignition, that second sound you hear when the combustion chamber actually lights off. So the Propex is shutting down because of no ignition. I'vehad that with a low battery. Check the voltage on the aux battery if you can. Or start the engine and give the Propex a try with the alternator providing electricity to the aux battery (assuming you have the standard relay setup between the starting battery and the aux) |
