Cold Start Complaint - Advice to Owner

- Turn AC off while cranking and leave it off until the engine is running normally.

- If engine does not start within 3 sec. of cranking without throttle assist, depress the accelerator part way and continue cranking.

- Do not operate starter for more than 10-15 sec. at a time. Wait about 20 seconds to allow the battery to recover between starting attempts.
