I did the Doghead starter relay conversion on my '85 m1009 on Monday (I also changed the oil). It started and drove fine Monday and Tuesday (also changed the horn relay and air filter Tuesday night). This morning (Wednesday) was colder (25 degrees), and it would not start for the first time ever! Installed 2 new Interstate batteries in October.
It started and drove fine in colder weather before the conversion. It sounded like the starter was turning over slower. Could it be the new relay doesn't provide as much current? Has anyone else had any issues like this after the conversion? Could the horn relay have affected anything?
Steel Soldiers has been great so far. I really appreciate all your input!
