PostSubject: Starting issue   Starting issue Icon_minitimeOctober 19th 2017, 3:05 am

Sometimes when I turn the key to start the AlKo 10/36 (Noma) all I get is a clunk noise from the solenoid, a couple more flicks of the key and it turns over and starts.....Ive removed cleaned and greased the solenoid contacts, still does it, where should I be looking to effect a cure please? Battery has good charge, engine is B and S 10HP flathead

Thanks!

Make sure your battery cables are clean and tight on their connections, might be a bit corroded and not letting full power get to the solenoid.
