    MEP831A recoil start, bleed fuel lines

    Thanks for the clarity! The no fuel fault design seems a bit redundant then! The engine ran at a very low rpm maybe 1800-1900 and sounded just like the yanmar in our sail boat

    MEP831A recoil start, bleed fuel lines

    Do you guys think I should mess with the factory battery any further? I.e. Use it? I have it AGM trickle charged up to 25v now using the noco 7.2 amp charger. I am worried I killed the original speed controller with trying to use the alternator to charge the low voltage battery.
