Subject:Difficulty starting my 86
From:Alain Thibault
Date:Mon, 11 Nov 2013 22:52:32 -0800

Allo all
My 1986 Westfalia does not start easily, sometimes when cold after a week in the garage, it takes 6 to 7 attempts, and sometimes when hot, It takes 2-3 attempts. It always end up running though and it runs great. . The van has been equipped with a gear reduction starter. Could that be the problem? The van has160k kms only and has been maintained with care.
Thanks for any help
Alain
