Good idea, I already have a spare ignitor and will order the relay next time I buy some parts.

Re: starting problem - code 19

Re: Kill switch

It's actually not too bad, as long as you're not in a hurry. The freight forwarder I use (myus.com) can ship it for $12 but it will take 2-3 weeks. …login to view the rest of this post

Thanks for that info, I might get one also just in case my occasional starting problems are the relay and not the kill switch.

Re: Another 5EB cracked liner? Hopefully not

A cracked liner usually results in the engine becoming hard to start when hot. What you describe sounds like fuel starvation.
