I was out on the hook last night and came in to pick up some friends. When I restarted the starboard engine it took 2-3 seconds to start, and normally starts in less than a second. I thought it strange but continued on our journey. A couple hours later I tried to restart the starboard engine and it would not start. It cranked as fast as normal. I cranked it for 10 seconds at a time three or four times with no luck. Then I started making my way back on one engine. After 5 minutes I tried again with no luck. Then about 5 minutes later I tried again and the engine started. It runs perfectly once started. I figure it must be related to the fuel solenoid. I have not been able to diagnose anything since we were entertaining, but will in the morning. I don't know if the solenoid was getting power or not but I figure it must either be the solenoid itself or in the electronics to the solenoid. What would really be a big help would be the 3116 engine electrical schematic. Does anyone have one they can send me?
Any troubleshooting advice would also be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
