Hey Chris!

I thought your bike would have had a starter relay. All the Eldos came with
them and most of the Ambassadors too.

What Charles said. I have a bosch starter, which turns fast in any temp.
Still need to get off my ass and wire in the relay tho'.

Hi Pete,

My '69 Ambo cranks slowly when cold as well. Cranks just fine when warm

or

ambient temperature is in the 80s +. Do you have the Marelli starter? I
figure
it's the nature of this starter to crank this way. Mine also has no

starter

relay, so the button is taking the full brunt of the juice to the

starter.

I
plan on wiring one in soon and suspect this will help starting. Cheers,

Charlie

Hi List

Just began taking the 71 out for the first time this weekend.
It seems to crank slowly but steadily when cold and then fire and run

OK.

When I shut it down or when I stalled it, and try to crank again,

it

just

kind of bogs down and if I hold the button a bit it finally turns

over

and

fires. It definitely cranks much differently cold than hot. The
specific gravity is OK according to the gage. I am using one of

those

lawn

and garden tractor batteries, the 275 AMP version. This gives me

NO

sense

of trust in the starting system.

I can buy one size heavier amp rating battery, but thought I'd ask

you

guys

if its a case of marginal battery and hot cranking always is harder

than

cold. ( I figure it should be the other way around) .
Other than that, tomorrow I go for the official license plate so

I

dont

have to borrow the one off the Wing.
The Guz is a nice riding machine. Very nimble compared to my

floorboard

dragging barge.
Thanks for any tips
Pete
