Hi all.
I stripped down my engine on my 2003 DF70 as it would not tick over and after doing the usual tests I found it was low on compression on number 3 cylinder.
I removed head and found the valve seats were well worn and got them all re-seated and replaced valves.
Anyway, I rebuilt the engine and it wont start with the key. (Its NOT the kill switch. I got it tested my a Suzuki main dealer and the continuity is fine. Put it on amp meter and and open and closed switch and then checked it with good one and both readings were the same)
I crossed the wires at the solenoid and got the engine going.
It sounds really well .Left it running until thermostat opened and all is well.
Now, I went to start it this morning and it was hard to start, as it was the first time as you would expect with a rebuild.
(At solenoid with pliers crossing wires.)
The marine tech put it on computer and it would not read my engine as his connections are for newer type.
He can tell from beeps that there is a code 24 which I believe it the camshaft sensor.
Again we checked with amp meter and he said it was well within range and ok.
What I am looking for here is has anyone any idea if I did something wrong putting it back together. There is no mistake on solenoid as I checked with another engine the same as mine.
So, just to recap what i'm looking for help with.
Engine will not turn over with key. (Dead man is plugged in)
Hard to start when cold.
Many thanks for your expertise which was spot on last problem I had.
