Subject:      Difficulty starting my 86
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Allo all
My 1986 Westfalia does not start easily, sometimes when cold after a week in the garage, it takes 6 to 7 attempts, and sometimes when hot, It takes 2-3 attempts. It always end up running though and it runs great. . The van has been equipped with a gear reduction starter. Could that be the problem? The van has160k kms only and has been maintained with care.
Thanks for any help
Alain
