How's it going all... I have twin 8.1 Horizon's with the port having a rough cold start. Additionally it idles at about 50-100 rpm lower than the starboard motor once it's warmed up. Before I started the engines today (they were cold, hadn't been run in 24 hours) I wanted to see what the smartcraft gauges read (photo below)... The port engine coolant pressure reads 43 PSI dead cold prior to starting, I feel like it should read 0 PSI like the starboard motor, could this sensor be bad and be causing the rough cold start/lower idle RPM? Thanks for any input.
