Having problems with a 4.5 BCGTC westerbeke gen. It cranks but won't start. The choke solenoid closes the butterfly but it just cranks. Have spark at distributor and plugs. If I pull the choke linkage by hand it starts right up. I ran it for 4 hrs under a load and had no problems. I removed the load let it run to cool down and shut it off. Tried to start it short time later and it would not start. It was still warm and the choke did not close. Pulled the choke closed by hand and it started right up. Choke opened right away and it ran until I shut it down again. has anyone had a similar problem or any idea about mine. Thanks for any help on this matter.
